The Department of Environmental Protection Wednesday announced it will host a public hearing on January 31 (snow date February 1) regarding its intent to issue an Air Quality Plan Approval for Sunoco Partners Marketing Terminals, L.P. (SPMT) in Marcus Hook Borough, Delaware County.
“It is important that those interested in the project have the opportunity to voice their comments, opinions and concerns,” said Southeast Regional Director Pat Patterson. “In this case, we are looking at an existing facility that wishes to relocate a gas flare within its current property boundaries. In doing so, the new gas flare would be located in Pennsylvania.”
The hearing will be held at 6:00 p.m. at the Marcus Hook Community Center, located at 7 W Delaware Avenue, Marcus Hook, PA 19061 and is intended to allow residents the opportunity to comment on the draft Plan Approval.
DEP will record testimony and receive written comments throughout the hearing, and will accept written comments until February 10.
Those wishing to testify in person should contact Community Relations Coordinator Virginia Cain at 484-250-5808.
Written comments may be sent to: Jim Rebarchak, Environmental Program Manager at the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, 2 East Main Street, Norristown, PA 19401. Comments may also be emailed to: jrebarchak@pa.gov, with the subject clearly stating that the email is intended for public record.
The Air Quality Plan Approval application and draft Plan Approval are available for review online at the DEP Southeast Regional Office Community Information webpage, by appointment between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. at DEP Southeast Regional Office, 2 E. Main St., Norristown, PA 19401, 484-250-5910; and at the Marcus Hook Public Library, 1015 Green Street, Marcus Hook, PA 19061.
