Permitting/Approvals
On April 27, 2021, DEP received an Air Quality Plan Approval application (PA-63-00936I) from MarkWest that proposes to, among other things, operate the existing facility (currently permitted as a minor source) and make modifications as a Title V facility. This essentially means that MarkWest is requesting that DEP review the application as a major source facility.
On May 25, 2021, DEP issued an administrative incompleteness determination to MarkWest and requested additional information from the applicant within 10 business days.
