Notice has been given that:

Delaware Recyclable Products, Inc. (DRPI), requests a construction permit to construct a Hydrogen Sulfide (H₂S) pretreatment system with associated media storage tanks, blowers, and gas analyzer at their 246 Marsh Lane, City and County of New Castle landfill.  The proposed system will be installed in the landfill gas (LFG) line to remove sulfur compounds from the LFG prior to flaring. DRPI states that the system has sufficient capacity to reduce H₂S concentration in the LFG to levels that will return them to compliance with their existing SO_X (Sulfur Dioxides) permit limits by Permit# APC-2020/0048- CONSTRUCTION.  DRPI was issued a Notice of Violation (NOV) dated October 18, 2019 due to failure to comply with the facility’s permitted emission limits for SO_X.

The application for this permit may be reviewed at the offices of the Division of Air Quality, State Street Commons, 100 W. Water Street, Suite 6A, Dover, Delaware or 715 Grantham Lane, New Castle, Delaware.  For additional information or for an appointment to review the application, please contact Tracy Mattson at (302) 739‑9402.

A public hearing on any of the above applications will NOT be held unless the Secretary of DNREC receives a request for a hearing regarding that application within 15 days from the date of this notice, ending December 30, 2019.  A request for a hearing shall be in writing.  The request must also show a familiarity with the application and a reasoned statement of the permit’s probable impact.

All comments and public hearing requests should be mailed to the following address:
