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.

   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 before the application. TDD users should 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 of Environmental Protection (Department) intends to renew State-only Operating Permit 49-00013. The Department intends to incorporate into the renewal conditions requiring compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements pertaining to air contamination sources and the emission of air contaminants as well as the conditions which are currently contained in State-only Operating Permit 49-00013, with some exceptions, changes and additions.

   Conditions currently contained in State-only Operating Permit 49-00013 which will be retained in the renewal include:

   1.  A condition limiting the total combined facility-wide emissions of SOx to less than 100 tons in any 12-consecutive month period.

   2.  Conditions requiring the performance of annual tune-ups on the two 25.1 mmBtu per hour boilers and the maintenance of records of these tune-ups.

   3.  Conditions limiting the fuel to be fired in the two 25.1 mm/Btu per hour boilers to natural gas, propane and No. 2 fuel oil to which no reclaimed or waste oil or other waste materials have been added.

   Conditions currently contained in State-only Operating Permit 49-00013 which will not be retained in the renewal include:

   1.  Conditions limiting the combined VOC emissions from this facility and the adjacent Mt. Carmel Cogen, Inc. cogeneration facility to less than 50 tons in any 12-consecutive month period and requiring the maintenance of records to demonstrate compliance with this limitation.

   2.  Conditions requiring the permittees to perform a weekly inspection of the facility and to maintain records of these inspections.

   Conditions currently contained in State-only Operating Permit 49-00013 which are being retained in the renewal, but changed from the current conditions include:

   1.  Conditions limiting the operation of each of the two 25.1 mmBtu per hour boilers to no more than 7,600 hours in any 12-consecutive month period which are being changed to limit the operation of each of the two boilers while firing No. 2 fuel oil to no more than 7,600 hours in any 12-consecutive month period.

   Conditions which will be incorporated in the renewal, but which are not currently contained in State-only Operating Permit 49-00013 include:

   1.  Conditions requiring the results of each annual boiler tuneup to be reported to the Department of Environmental within 60 days of completing the tuneup.
