NOTICE OF 30-DA Y PERIOD FOR PUBLIC COMMENT Preliminary Findings Regarding the Renewal of a Part 70 Operating Permit for Da-Lite Screen Company, Inc. in Kosciusko County Part 70 Operating Permit No.: T 085-24030-00002 The Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) has received an application from Da-Lite Screen Company, Inc. located at 3100 North Detroit Street, Warsaw, Indiana 46581 for a renewal of their Part 70 Operating Permit issued on September 5, 2002. If approved by IDEM's Office of Air Quality (OAQ), this proposed renewal would allow Da-Lite Screen Company, Inc. to continue to operate their existing source. This draft Part 70 Operating Permit does not contain any new equipment that would emit air pollutants; however, some conditions from previously issued permits/approvals have been corrected, changed or removed. This notice fulfills the public notice procedures to which those conditions are subject. IDEM has reviewed this application, and has developed preliminary findings, consisting of a draft permit and several supporting documents, that would allow the applicant to make this change. A copy of the permit application and IDEM's preliminary findings are available at: Warsaw Community Public Library 315 East Main Street Warsaw, Indiana 46580-2745 A copy of the preliminary findings is available on the Internet at: http://www.in.gov/ai/appfiles/idem-caats! How can you participate in this process? The date that this notice is published in a newspaper marks the beginning of a 30-day public comment period. If the 30th day of the comment period falls on a day when IDEM offices are closed for business, all comments must be postmarked or delivered in person on the next business day that IDEM is open. You may request that IDEM hold a public hearing about this draft permit. If adverse comments concerning the air pollution impact of this draft permit are received, with a request for a public hearing, IDEM will decide whether or not to hold a public hearing. IDEM could also decide to hold a public meeting instead of, or in addition to, a public hearing. If a public hearing or meeting is held, IDEM will make a separate announcement of the date, time, and location of that hearing or meeting. At a hearing, you would have an opportunity to submit written comments and make verbal comments. At a meeting, you would have an opportunity to submit written comments, ask questions, and discuss any air pollution concerns with IDEM staff. Comments and supporting documentation, or a request for a public hearing should be sent in writing to IDEM at the address below.

If the permit is issued, it may be different than the draft permit because of comments that were received during the public comment period. If comments are received during the public notice period, the final decision will include a document that summarizes the comments and IDEM's response to those comments. If you have submitted comments or have asked to be added to the mailing list, you will receive a Notice of the Decision. The notice will provide details on how you may appeal IDEM's decision, if you disagree with that decision. The final decision will also be available on the Internet at the address indicated above, at the local library indicated above, at the IDEM public files room on the 12th floor of the Indiana Government Center North, 100 N.
