Washington County Notices 63-00549C: Arden Landfill, Inc. (200 Rangos Lane, Washington, PA 15301). Notice is hereby given in accordance with 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.44—127.46 that the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) intends to issue Air Quality Plan Approval 63-00549C to combine previously issued PA-63-00549A for a landfill gas-to-energy plant and PA-63-00549B for the expansion in landfill capacity at the Arden Landfill, Inc. municipal solid waste landfill facility located in Chartiers Township, Washington County. Sources at this facility include landfill gas fugitive emissions, six (6) 1,148 bhp Caterpillar 3516 landfill gas-fired engines, primary and backup flares, three (3) diesel-fired emergency generator engines, and fugitive roadway emissions. Potential to emit from the facility is estimated to be 136.73 tpy NOx, 276.37 tpy of CO, 89.14 tpy PM10, 3.37 tpy SO2, 56.92 tpy VOC, 26.34 tpy HCHO, and 40.35 tpy HAPs. The authorization is subject to State regulations including 25 Pa. Code §§ 123.13, 123.21, 123.31 and 123.41, Federal New Source Performance Standards including 40 CFR Part 60 Subpart WWW for municipal solid waste landfills and National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants including 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart ZZZZ for Stationary Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines. Plan Approval has been conditioned to ensure compliance with all applicable rules. This includes testing, work practice, monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting conditions. This plan approval will establish NMNEHC and HCHO emission limits for the landfill gas-fired engines, revise the fugitive landfill gas emissions, and incorporate the Reasonably Available Control Technology II (RACT II) requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 129.96—129.100. The facility is subject to presumptive RACT requirements for NOx and VOC, which have been evaluated during this review. Once compliance with the Plan Approval is demonstrated, the applicant will subsequently revise their pending Title V Operating Permit renewal

Justice for Coalfield Communities application. The plan approval application, the Department’s review memorandum, the proposed plan approval, and other relevant information are available for review by any interested party at the Department’s Southwest Regional Office, 400 Waterfront Drive, , PA 15222. To request a review of the plan approval application for the facility, a person may contact the Department at 412.442.4000. Those who wish to provide the Department with additional written information that they believe should be considered prior to the issuance of the plan approval may submit the information to Alexander Sandy, Department of Environmental Protection, Southwest Regional Office, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222. Written comments must contain the name, address and telephone number of the person submitting the comments, identification of the proposed plan approval (PA-63-00549C) and concise statements regarding the relevancy of the information or objections to issuance of the Operating Permit. A public hearing may be held, if the Department, in its discretion, decides that such a hearing is warranted based on the information received. All persons submitting comments or requesting a hearing will be notified of the decision to hold a hearing by publication in the newspaper or by the Pennsylvania Bulletin, or by telephone, where the Department determines such notification by telephone is sufficient. Written comments or requests for a public hearing should be directed to Mark Gorog at the previously listed address.

Greene County Notices Notice of Proposed Revision to the State Implementation Plan for Oxides of Nitrogen, Volatile Organic Compounds, Notice of Public Hearing, and Notice of Intent to Issue Revised Air Quality Operating Permit PA-30-00072L In accordance with 25 Pa. Code §§ 129.96—129.100, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (‘‘Department’’) has made a preliminary determination to approve a RACT II plan and an amendment to the State Implementation Plan (SIP) for the CONSOL Pennsylvania Company, LLC (1000 Consol Energy Drive, Canonsburg, PA 15317) (‘‘CONSOL’’) Bailey Coal Preparation Plant located in Richhill Township, Greene County. The facility is a major source of VOC emissions and is subject to Title V and RACT II. The proposed SIP revision does not adopt any new regulations. It incorporates the provisions and requirements contained in the amended RACT approval for the facility, which are intended to satisfy the requirements for the 1997, 2008, and 2015 National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for ozone. Other sources at the facility meet the presumptive RACT II requirements of 25 Pa. Code § 129.97. The applicable presumptive RACT II requirements of § 129.97 are incorporated into the proposed plan approval. VOC emissions from sources at the facility that are included in the Wash Plant Source Group will not exceed the previously authorized limitation of 280 tons per year. The proposed amendments to the RACT II determination, if finally approved, will be incorporated into a plan approval (PA-30-00072L) for the facility. After the public participation requirements of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.44— 127.45 and 40 CFR 51.102 are met, including public hearings to be held on the following dates and

Justice for Coalfield Communities location, the relevant RACT II requirements will be submitted to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a revision to Pennsylvania’s SIP and will remain in effect until replaced pursuant to 40 CFR Part 51 and approved by the EPA. Requirements that are not part of the RACT II determination will be excluded from the SIP submittal. The RACT II requirements for this facility proposed to be submitted to the EPA as part of the SIP are that CONSOL shall comply with the following requirements for the Wash Plant Source Group (which includes Source ID 107—Froth Flotation 1 Frother; Source ID 108—Froth Flotation 1 Diesel; 109—Froth Flotation 2-Frother; Source ID 110—Froth Flotation 2 Diesel; Source ID 115— Antifreeze Spray 1; Source ID 116—Antifreeze Spray 2; Source ID 117—Thickener 1-Frother; Source ID 118— Thickener 1-Diesel; Source ID 119—Thickener 2-Frother; Source ID 120—Thickener 2-Diesel; Source ID 121— Thickener 1-Flocculant; Source ID 122—Thickener 2-Flocculant; Source ID 124—Froth Flotation 3-Frother; Source ID 125—Froth Flotation 3-Diesel; and Source ID 128—Wash Plant 2C) Maintain and operate the sources in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications and with good operating practices for the control of the VOC emissions. • Monitor and maintain records of VOC containing frothing, collector, flocculant, and other agents used in the wash plant during each calendar month, and on a rolling 12-month basis. • Maintain records of the emissions calculations for each source pursuant to 25 Pa. Code § 135.5. • Records shall be kept and maintained on site for five (5) years and made available for review upon request. • Include the emissions in the annual emissions report required for the facility pursuant to 25 Pa.
