ENB Region 2 Completed Applications 08/16/2006

Applicant proposes to remove five existing boilers and install two new boilers.  During the boiler replacement period, applicant proposes to install one stand-by temporary boiler and a temporary fuel oil storage tank, which will be removed once the new boilers commence operation.  A Title V permit was issued on 6/29/05 for the installation and operation of the two new biolers as replacement for the five existing boilers.  The current application is for the proposed temporary stand-by boiler, which will fire distillate oil (Process STB).  The fuel consumption of the standby boiler will be part of the facility's existing Title V threshold (140 TPY of SO2 and 135 TPY of NOx).  The monthly rolled fuel will be adjusted between No. 6 oil (existing boilers) and No. 2 oil (stand-by temporary boiler).  No emission increase will occur as a result of the stand-by temporary boiler operation.

The applicant proposes to expand a single family house located on a fixed pier overlying tidal wetland habitats (shoal mudflat and littoral zone). NYSDEC intends to deny this application which fails to meet the standards for permit issuance as set forth in 6NYCRR Part 661.9(B)(i)(iii)(iv) & (v). The project site is located at 930 Lanark Road, Broad Channel, Queens.
