The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (�the Department�) has received an order from the Administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) requiring the Department to make certain modifications to the current Title V Air Permit issued to Suffolk County for its Bergen Point Sewage Treatment Plant. Therefore, the Department intends to implement this EPA order by modifying the Title V Permit so that it is in compliance with the order. The Department has drafted a modified permit pursuant to Article 19 (Air Pollution Control) of the NYS Environmental Conservation Law (ECL) and Title V of the Federal Clean Air Act Amendments and intends to issue this modified permit for the applicant�s existing facility located at 600 Bergen Avenue, West Babylon, County of Suffolk, New York. The facility is engaged in the treatment of waste water and sewage sludge incineration. The facility is equipped with two (2) multiple hearth incinerators using No. 2 fuel oil, treatment tanks and filters, settling tanks, aeration tanks, clarifiers, etc. The incinerators are connected to thermal afterburners, spray towers, venturi scrubbers, impingement plate scrubbers and I.D fans. The facility has two small boilers with 40 mmbtu/hr capacity each operating only one at any time to produce 30,000 lb/hr. of steam to meet facility heating and cooling requirements. The boilers use natural gas as the primary fuel with a firing rate of up to 392 therms/hr. with No. 2 fuel oil being utilized as an auxiliary fuel which when burned utilizes up to 280 gallons per hour of No. 2 fuel oil. The facility will also be utilizing low-sulfur fuel (<0.37% sulfur by weight). Regulated processes to be authorized under this permit consist of two multiple hearth incinerators, boilers, liquid and solid open processes processing up to 30.5 million gallon per day (mgd) of waste water, ash silo exhaust and the packed bed scrubber for treatment of gases from sludge conditioning using hypochlorite at an alkaline pH to remove trace organics. The facility is subject to 6 NYCRR Parts 225 and 227, 40 CFR 61 Subpart E and 40 CFR 60 Subpart O. The proposed permit modifications include the following changes:
1. Inclusion of additional clarifying language regarding Annual Compliance Certification.
2. Inclusion of additional requirements for prompt reporting of deviations.
3. In regard to startup, shutdown and malfunction, deletion of the �Unavoidable Noncompliance and Violations� condition, which cites 6 NYCRR section 201 - 1.4, from the federal side of the permit and addition of language acknowledging that the Department cannot exercise more discretion than allowed by federal requirements.
4. As required by NESHAP Subpart E, identification and statement of operating parameters that may not be changed in order to prevent increases in mercury emissions and prescription of annual mercury sampling of sludge to satisfy periodic monitoring.
5. In regard to Particulate Emissions, expression of all applicable particulates standards in the same units as called for in the regulations. When different emission standards are used at different regulations, all the standards must be admitted as permit limits.
6. Inclusion of a permit requirement that allows sludge feed rate to be calculated. 7. In regard to Maintenance and Operation Procedures, stating the calibration frequencies and operating ranges and referencing calibration methods for various equipment listed in permit Condition 46.
8. Stating the test method and the attendant record-keeping requirements that are associated with the grab sample.
9. In regard to Monitoring of Scrubber Pressure Drop, stating the average pressure drop which was measured for the scrubber during the most recent performance test, as required by Subpart O.
10. In regard to Opacity Monitoring, referencing all attendant QA/QC program requirements relating to the operation of the Continuous Opacity Monitors (COMs).
11. Inclusion of a complete Permit Review Report to discuss the basis for the monitoring to assure compliance with annual mercury analysis of the sludge and the deletion of the 6NYCRR 227-1 emission limit from the permit as this Part is not applicable to incinerators.
As requested by the facility, this permit is also being modified to reflect the fact that natural gas is now the primary fuel used in the boilers and low-sulfur No. 2 fuel oil is being utilized by the facility.
In accordance with 6 NYCRR Parts 621.5(d)(9) and 2016.4(c), the Administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) has the authority to bar issuance of any Title V Facility Permit if it is determined not to be in compliance with applicable requirements of the Clean Air Act or 6 NYCRR Part 201.
Following the 30 day comment period, the USEPA will have an additional 45 days to review the draft or modified draft permit. If the USEPA does not raise any objection in that time, the Department may then issue the final draft permit as the Title V Permit. Persons wishing to inspect the subject Title V files, including the application with all relevant supporting materials, the draft modified permit, the USEPA Order and all other materials available to the Department (the "permitting authority") that are relevant to this permitting decision should contact the Department representative listed below. It is recommended that an appointment be made to confirm the availability of the subject files. The Department will endeavor to make the files available within 2 business days of contact, during normal business hours (8:30 am through 4:45 pm), unless the requestor wishes to inspect the files at a later date.
Comments of support or objection may be made by filing a written statement by the deadline date indicated. The Department may modify the draft permit based on significant or important information raised during the comment period. The Department will evaluate the application and the comments received on it to determine whether to schedule and hold a public hearing. Hearing Notices will contain instructions on filing for party status and submitting comments. A public hearing may be legislative or adjudicatory. A legislative public hearing is a proceeding which provides an additional opportunity for public comment. The Department's determination to hold a legislative public hearing will be based on whether a significant degree of public interest exists. If a legislative public hearing is to be held, a Notice of Hearing will be published which will include the time and place of the hearing and submitting comments. The applicant and all persons who have filed comments on the permit will be notified by mail of the public hearing. Comments and requests for a legislative public hearing should be in writing and addressed to the Department representative listed below.
An adjudicatory public hearing is a trial type proceeding which provides the opportunity for adjudication on the basis of evidence, including direct testimony and cross examination. An adjudicatory hearing is held only if substantive and significant issues exist which relate to any findings or determinations the Department is required to make pursuant to the Environmental Conservation Law. A copy of the Department's permit hearing procedures is available upon request or on the Department web site at: http://www.dec.state.ny.us/website/ohms/gudph1.htm.
