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.

The air contaminant emissions from the 2,871 mmBtu/hr waste coal fired CFB boiler will be controlled by a limestone injection system, a flash dryer absorber or spray dryer absorber system, a cyclone, a fabric filter baghouse and a selective noncatalytic reduction (SNCR) system. This proposed facility is a major facility and subject to the Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) provisions of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.81--127.83 and 40 CFR 52.21, Best Available Control Technology (BACT), the New Source Review (NSR) provisions of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.201--127.217, Lowest Achievable Emission Rate (LAER), the Interstate Pollution Transport Reduction provisions of 25 Pa. Code Chapter 145, the Acid Rain provisions of 40 CFR Parts 72--78, the MACT provisions of 25 Pa. Code § 127.35 and the Best Available Technology (BAT) requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12.

   The facility's VOC and NOx emissions are subject to NSR. The Department has determined that the proposed level of VOC and NOx emission control will satisfy the LAER requirement of these regulations and also, under 25 Pa. Code § 127.205(5), that the benefits of the proposed facility will significantly outweigh the environmental and social costs associated with the facility. The facility's NOx, CO, SOx, sulfuric acid mist, particulate matter and PM10 emissions are subject to the PSD requirements. The Department has determined that the proposed level of NOx, CO, SOx, sulfuric acid mist, particulate matter and PM10 emission control satisfies the BACT requirement.

   The facility is also subject to the applicable parts of the Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources for Subpart Da: New Electric Utility Steam Generating Units, 40 CFR 60.40a--49a; Subpart Dc: Small Industrial-Commercial-Institutional Steam Generating Units, 40 CFR 60.40c--60.48c; Subpart Y: Coal Preparation Plants, 40 CFR 60.250--60.254; Subpart OOO: Standards of Performance for Nonmetallic Mineral Processing Plants, 40 CFR 60.670--60.676. In addition, the facility will be subject to the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Subpart DDDDD: Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Boilers and Process Heaters, 40 CFR 63.7480--63.7575 and Subpart ZZZZ: Stationary Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines, 40 CFR 63.6580--63.6675.

   This project will emit up to 889.60 tons of NOx, 2,526.57 tons of SOx, 2,520 tons of CO, 233.11 tons of particulate matter, 197.46 tons of PM10, 63.36 tons of VOCs, 125.70 tons of sulfuric acid mist, 80.00 tons of ammonia, 42.2 tons of hydrochloric acid, 18.09 tons of hydrofluoric acid, 3.6 pounds of mercury, 34.0 pounds of lead, 2.9 pounds of beryllium and 60.3 tons to total combined HAPs in any 12 consecutive month period.

   In accordance with the PSD provisions of 40 CFR 52.21 and 25 Pa. Code § 127.83, River Hill has provided an air quality modeling analysis that demonstrates that the proposed power facility will not cause or significantly contribute to air pollution in violation of the PSD increment standards or the National Ambient Air Quality Standards. In addition, the PSD regulations require an analysis of the impact of the facility's projected CO, NOx, particulate matter and SOx emissions on visibility and soils and vegetation, and the air quality impact due to growth associated with the power facility. River Hill has demonstrated that there will be no adverse impact on local visibility and soils and vegetation in the site area and no appreciable air quality impact due to growth associated with the power facility. Also in accordance with the PSD regulations, River Hill has demonstrated that the power facility's projected emissions will not adversely impact air quality related values (AQRVs), including visibility, within Federal Class I areas.

   The air quality modeling analysis estimates that the operation of the River Hill power facility will result in Class II area increment consumption as follows: for SO2, 264 µg/m3 of the allowable 512 µg/m3 3-hour SO2 increment standard, 53µg/m3 of the allowable 91 µg/m3 24-hour SO2 increment standard, and 9.5 µg/m3 of the allowable 20 µg/m3 annual SO2 increment standard; for particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter less than or equal to PM10, 19 µg/m3 of the allowable 30 µg/m3 24-hour PM10 increment standard, and 10 µg/m3 of the allowable 17 µg/m3 annual PM10 increment standard. The maximum NO2 Class II area impact expected to result from the operation of the River Hill power facility will not exceed the Class II significant impact level (SIL). The maximum NO2 Class II impact is 0.9 µg/m3 of the allowable 1 µg/m3 annual NO2 SIL.

   The air quality modeling analysis estimates that the operation of the River Hill power facility will result in maximum Class I area impacts that will not exceed the Class I SIL for NO2, PM10 and SO2. The maximum NO2 Class I impact is 0.000810 µg/m3 of the applicable 0.1 µg/m3 annual NO2 SIL. The maximum PM10 Class I impact is 0.118 µg/m3 of the applicable 0.3 µg/m3 24-hour PM10 SIL and 0.00246 µg/m3 of the applicable 0.2 µg/m3 annual PM10 SIL. The maximum SO2 Class I impact is 0.949 µg/m3 of the applicable 1 µg/m3 3-hour SO2 SIL, 0.192 µg/m3 of the applicable 0.2 µg/m3 24-hour SO2 SIL and 0.00466 µg/m3 of the applicable 0.1 µg/m3 annual SO2 SIL.

   As an alternative to Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Guideline Models, AERMOD (version 02222) was used in the air quality analysis for the proposed River Hill Power facility. Specific approval for the use of AERMOD in this analysis was granted by the EPA Region III Administrator and was consistent with the recommendations under 40 CFR 51, Appendix W § 3.2. The Department is expressly requesting written comments on AERMOD, the EPA-approved substitute model used for the River Hill Power project. Under 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.44 and 127.83 and 40 CFR 52.21(l), (2) and (q), notice is hereby given that the Department is soliciting written comments on the use of the nonguideline model, AERMOD, approved by the EPA.

   The Department's review of the information contained in the application indicates that the 290 megawatt waste coal fired electric generating facility will comply with all State and Federal requirements as specified above pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants. Based on this finding, the Department intends to approve the application and issue plan approval for the proposed construction.
