Notice of Intent to Revise Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) Landfill Operating Permit

   Under section 111(d) of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) promulgated Emission Guidelines (EG) for existing MSW landfills to control the emission of landfill gases. (See 61 FR 9905, March 12, 1996). A MSW landfill is considered an existing MSW landfill if the facility began construction, modification or reconstruction before May 30, 1991; or received waste on or after November 8, 1987, or has additional capacity available for the future deposition of waste control of landfill gases from existing landfills using best demonstrated technology.

   The Commonwealth's State Plan for implementing the EG was submitted to the EPA on July 1, 1997. In accordance with the 111(d) plan, the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) will enforce the requirements of the EG through the issuance of Federally Enforceable State Operating Permits (FESOPS) to designated MSW landfills. Therefore, in accordance with the plan, the operating permit issued to the landfills identified, will be revised to incorporate the requirements of the EG. This revised permit will serve as the enforcement mechanism for the EG requirements.

   Copies of the proposed permit amendments and other relevant information are available for public inspection and additional information may be obtained by contacting the Regional Office.

   Interested persons may submit written comments, suggestions or objections concerning the proposed permit amendments to the regional office within 30 days of publication of this notice. Written comments submitted to the Department during the 30-day public comment period shall include the name, address and telephone number of the persons submitting the comments, along with the reference number of the proposed permit. The commentator should also include a concise statement of objections to the permit issuance and the relevant facts upon which the objections are based.

   The Department reserves the right to hold a public hearing on the proposed action based upon the information received during the public comment period and will provide notice of any scheduled public hearing at least 30 days in advance of the hearing. The hearing notice will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin and a newspaper of general circulation where the facility is located.

   41-322-001:  Lycoming County Resource Management Services (R. D. 2, Box 587, Montgomery, PA 17752). The Lycoming County Landfill located in Brady Township, Lycoming County, has been identified as an emitter of nonmethane organic compounds at a level equal to or exceeding the EG threshold.

   18-322-003:  Clinton County Solid Waste Authority (P. O. Box 209, McElhattan, PA 17748). The Wayne Township Landfill located in Wayne Township, Clinton County, has been identified as an existing municipal solid waste landfill with a design capacity in excess of the EG capacity threshold but as an emitter of nonmethane organic compounds at a level less than the EG threshold. This determination is based upon air contaminant emission information submitted by the Clinton County Solid Waste Authority.
