PLAN APPROVAL AND OPERATING PERMIT APPLICATIONS
NEW SOURCES AND MODIFICATIONS The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has developed an ''integrated'' plan approval, State Operating Permit and Title V Operating Permit program. This integrated approach is designed to make the permitting process more efficient for the Department, the regulated community and the public. This approach allows the owner or operator of a facility to complete and submit all the permitting documents relevant to its application one time, affords an opportunity for public input and provides for sequential issuance of the necessary permits.
The Department has received applications for plan approvals and/or operating permits from the following facilities.
Copies of these applications, subsequently prepared draft permits, review summaries and other support materials are available for review in the Regional Office identified in this notice. Persons interested in reviewing the application files should contact the appropriate Regional Office to schedule an appointment.
Persons wishing to receive a copy of a proposed plan approval or operating permit must indicate interest to the Department Regional Office within 30 days of the date of this notice and must file protests or comments on a proposed plan approval or operating permit within 30 days of the Department providing a copy of the proposed document to that person or within 30 days of its publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, whichever comes first. Interested persons may also request that a hearing be held concerning a proposed plan approval and operating permit. Comments or protests filed with the Department Regional Offices must include a concise statement of the objections to the issuance of the plan approval or operating permit and relevant facts which serve as the basis for the objections. If the Department schedules a hearing, a notice will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin at least 30 days prior the date of the hearing.
Persons with a disability who wish to comment and require an auxiliary aid, service or other accommodation to participate should contact the Regional Office identified. TDD users may contact the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984. Final plan approvals and operating permits will contain terms and conditions to ensure that the source is constructed and operating in compliance with applicable requirements in 25 Pa. Code Chapters 121--143, the Federal Clean Air Act (act) and regulations adopted under the act.

The Department's review of the information contained in the application indicates that the proposed sweat furnace will comply with all applicable regulatory requirements pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants including the best available technology requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12 and Subpart RRR of the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (40 CFR 63.1500--63.1519, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Secondary Aluminum Production). Based on this finding, the Department intends to approve the application and issue plan approval.
The following is a summary of the conditions the Department proposes to place in the plan approval to ensure compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements:
1. The sweat furnace shall be used to process irony aluminum scrap only. At no time shall the furnace be used to process lead scrap nor shall it be used to recover aluminum or copper from insulated wire or cable nor shall it be used as an incinerator to dispose of wastes.
2. At no time shall fluxes be used in the sweat furnace.
3. The sweat furnace shall be fired with propane only.
4. The sweat furnace shall not be operated more than 2,080 hours in any 12 consecutive month periods.
5. The sweat furnace shall not be operated if the afterburner is inoperable.
6. The sweat furnace shall be equipped with instrumentation to monitor and record the flue gas temperature at the exit of the furnace and afterburner exhaust stack.
7. At any time scrap is being processed in the sweat furnace, a flue gas temperature of at least 1,600°F shall be maintained at the temperature sensor at the exit of the furnace and afterburner exhaust stack. No scrap shall be placed into the furnace at any time the temperature is less than 1,600°F.
8. The sweat furnace shall be attended by an operator at all times it is in operation.
9. The particulate matter emissions from the sweat furnace shall not exceed .02 grain per dry standard cubic foot. The visible air contaminant emissions shall not exceed 10% opacity at any time. The dioxin/furan emissions (on a TEQ or toxicity equivalents basis) shall not exceed .00000000035 grain per dry standard cubic foot corrected to 11% oxygen.
10. The sweat furnace shall comply with all applicable requirements of Subpart RRR of the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants, 40 CFR 63.1500--63.1519.
11. Records shall be maintained of the number of hours the sweat furnace is operated each month. All records and all temperature records generated by the continuous stack temperature monitoring and recording instrumentation shall be retained for at least 5 years and shall be made available to the Department upon request.

Mining activity permits issued in response to the applications will also address the applicable permitting requirements of the following statutes: the Air Pollution Control Act (35 P. S. §§ 4001--4015); the Dam Safety and Encroachments Act (32 P. S. §§ 693.1--693.27); and the Solid Waste Management Act (35 P. S. §§ 6018.101--6018.1003).
The following permit applications to conduct mining activities have been received by the Department of Environmental Protection (Department). A copy of the application is available for inspection at the District Mining Office indicated before an application. Where a 401 Water Quality Certification is needed for any aspect of a particular proposed mining activity, the submittal of the permit application will serve as the request for certification.
Written comments, objections or requests for informal conferences on applications may be submitted by any person or any officer or head of any Federal, State or local government agency or authority to the Department at the same address within 30 days of this publication, or within 30 days after the last publication of the applicant's newspaper advertisement, as provided by 25 Pa. Code §§ 77.121--77.123 and 86.31--86.34.
Where any of the mining activities listed will have discharges of wastewater to streams, the Department will incorporate NPDES permits into the mining activity permits issued in response to these applications. NPDES permits will contain, at a minimum, technology-based effluent limitations as identified in this notice for the respective coal and noncoal applications. In addition to the previous, more restrictive effluent limitations, restrictions on discharge volume or restrictions on the extent of mining which may occur will be incorporated into a mining activity permit, when necessary, for compliance with water quality standards (in accordance with 25 Pa. Code Chapters 93 and 95). Persons or agencies who have requested review of the NPDES permit requirements for a particular mining activity within the previously mentioned public comment period will be provided with a 30 day period to review and submit comments on those requirements.
Written comments or objections should contain the name, address and telephone number of the person submitting comments or objections; application number; and a statement of sufficient detail to inform the Department on the basis of comment or objection and relevant facts upon which it is based. Requests for an informal conference must contain the name, address and telephone number of requestor; application number; a brief summary of the issues to be raised by the requestor at the conference; and a statement whether the requestor wishes to have the conference conducted in the locality of the proposed mining activities.
