UNDER ACT 2, 1995

PREAMBLE 1


Acknowledgment of Notices of Intent to Remediate Submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).

   Sections 302--305 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin an acknowledgment noting receipt of Notices of Intent to Remediate. An acknowledgment of the receipt of a Notice of Intent to Remediate is used to identify a site where a person proposes to, or has been required to, respond to a release of a regulated substance at a site. Persons intending to use the Background Standard, Statewide Health Standard, the Site-Specific Standard or who intend to remediate a site as a special industrial area must file a Notice of Intent to Remediate with the Department. A Notice of Intent to Remediate filed with the Department provides a brief description of the location of the site, a list of known or suspected contaminants at the site, the proposed remediation measures for the site and a description of the intended future use of the site. A person who demonstrates attainment of one, a combination of the cleanup standards or who receives approval of a special industrial area remediation identified under the act will be relieved of further liability for the remediation of the site for any contamination identified in reports submitted to and approved by the Department. Furthermore, the person shall not be subject to citizen suits or other contribution actions brought by responsible persons not participating in the remediation.

   Under sections 304(n)(1)(ii) and 305(c)(2) of the act, there is a 30-day public and municipal comment period for sites proposed for remediation using a Site-Specific Standard, in whole or in part and for sites remediated as a special industrial area. This period begins when a summary of the Notice of Intent to Remediate is published in a newspaper of general circulation in the area of the site. For the sites identified, proposed for remediation to a Site-Specific Standard or as a special industrial area, the municipality within which the site is located may request to be involved in the development of the remediation and reuse plans for the site if the request is made within 30 days of the date specified. During this comment period, the municipality may request that the person identified as the remediator of the site develop and implement a public involvement plan. Requests to be involved and comments should be directed to the remediator of the site.

   For further information concerning the content of a Notice of Intent to Remediate, contact the environmental cleanup program manager in the Department regional office before which the notice appears. If information concerning this acknowledgment is required in an alternative form, contact the community relations coordinator at the appropriate regional office. TDD users may telephone the Department through the AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

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 the 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 their 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 the 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.

   The Department of Environmental Protection's (Department) review of the information submitted by First Quality Products, Inc. indicates that the respective converting lines will comply with all Air Quality regulations pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants, including the best available technology requirement of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12. Based on this finding, the Department proposes to issue plan approval for the construction of the converting lines.

   The following is a summary of the conditions the Department proposes to place in the plan approval to be issued to ensure compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements:

   1.  The particulate matter emissions from Lines 2--4 shall be controlled by a drum filter (1 per line) and a fabric collector (common to all 3 lines) operating in series. The concentration of particulate matter in the exhaust of the fabric collector shall not exceed .000010 grain per dry standard cubic foot and there shall be no visible emissions from the collector exhaust (other than water vapor or steam).

   2.  The particulate matter emissions from Lines 5, 6 and 8 shall be controlled by a drum filter (1 per line) and a fabric collector (common to all 3 lines) operating in series. The concentration of particulate matter in the exhaust of the fabric collector shall not exceed .0000065 grain per dry standard cubic foot and there shall be no visible emissions from the collector exhaust (other than water vapor or steam).

   3.  The particulate matter emissions from Lines 9, 11--23, JP1 and JP2 shall be controlled by an Osprey unit (1 per line) consisting of a drum filter, a cartridge filter and a HEPA filter operating in series. The concentration of particulate matter in each of the Osprey units shall not exceed .0000044 grain per dry standard cubic foot and there shall be no visible emissions from the exhaust of any Osprey unit (other than water vapor or steam).

   4.  Each of the drum filters and fabric collectors associated with Lines 2--6 and 8 shall be equipped with instrumentation to monitor pressure differential across the drum filter or fabric collector on a continuous basis. Each of the Osprey units shall be equipped with instrumentation to monitor the pressure differential across each of its three component sections on a continuous basis.

   5.  Spare drum filters, filter bags, cartridge filters and HEPA filters shall be kept on hand.

   6.  The bags in the fabric collector associated with Lines 2--4 shall be cleaned at least once every 12 hours of operation. During those periods of time when the bags are being cleaned, the converting lines controlled by the collector shall not be operated.

   7.  Any air compressors supplying compressed air to any drum filter, fabric collector or Osprey unit shall be equipped with an air dryer and oil trap.

   8.  The total combined VOC emissions resulting from the adhesive, ink and cleanup solvent usage associated with the converting lines shall not exceed 6.94 tons in any 12 consecutive month period and the total volatile hazardous air pollutant emissions shall not exceed 1.33 tons in any 12 consecutive month period.

   9.  The adhesives used on, or in association with, the converting lines shall be restricted to hot melt adhesives which do not contain, as an intentionally-added ingredient, any VOC or volatile hazardous air pollutant. The hot melt adhesives may however result in the emission of VOC provided that the emissions do not exceed .003 pound per pound of adhesive used.

   10.  No ink used shall contain more than 5.92 pounds of VOCs and zero pounds of volatile hazardous air pollutants per gallon except that up to 15 gallons of ink with a VOC and volatile hazardous air pollutant content of up to 7.25 pounds per gallon may be used in any 12 consecutive month period.

   11.  No more than 1,800 gallons of cleanup solvent shall be used in any 12 consecutive month period. No more than 400 gallons of this 1,800 gallons may contain any volatile hazardous air pollutant and the maximum volatile hazardous air pollutant content shall be 6.69 pounds per gallon.

   All containers of VOC-containing materials, volatile hazardous air pollutant-containing materials and acetone-containing materials shall be kept closed except when in actual use. All used cleaning rags shall be stored in closed containers and the rags shall never be treated in any manner which would unnecessarily promote the evaporative loss of any contained VOC, volatile hazardous air pollutant or acetone to the atmosphere.

   12.  Records shall be maintained of the identity and amount of each adhesive, ink and cleaning solvent used each month. The records shall be retained for a minimum of 5 years and shall be made available to the Department upon request.
