The CAFO is located at 14627 Lurgan Road, Orrstown, PA 17244, in Lurgan Township, Franklin County. The CAFO is located near a tributary to Paxton Run, which is classified as a warm water fishery in the Conodoguinet Creek watershed. No construction of a new manure storage facility is proposed as the applicant proposes to continue to use two existing manure storage facilities.
The CAFO is an existing 2,800 sow to finish operation with 1,303 animal equivalent units.
The existing manure storage consists of a two stage HDPE lagoon system having a total capacity of 2.47 million gallons providing for a leak detection system meeting the requirements of the Department's Final Strategy for Meeting Federal Requirements for Controlling the Water Quality Impacts of Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations. The CAFO will be operated so that there will be no release or discharge to waters of the Commonwealth under normal operating conditions. Normal operating conditions are defined as conditions below a 25-year, 24-hour storm event.
The Department has conducted administrative and technical reviews of the application. On the basis of preliminary review and application of lawful standards and regulations and the Final CAFO Strategy, the Department proposes to issue an individual NPDES permit for the operation subject to the terms and conditions, effluent limitations, monitoring and reporting requirements specified in the draft permit. The proposed determination is tentative.
The permit application and proposed draft permit are on file at the Southcentral Regional Office of the Department. Persons may make an appointment to review the files by calling Mary DiSanto, File Review Coordinator, at (717) 705-4732.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) permit review waiver provision under 40 CFR 123.24(e) does not apply to this NPDES permit. The Administrator of EPA Region III may review or object to any proposed NPDES permit actions.

Acknowledgment of Notices of Intent to Remediate submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6027.908).
Sections 302, 303, 304 and 305 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin an acknowledgment noting receipt of any Notices of Intent to Remediate. An acknowledgment of the receipt of a Notice of Intent to Remediate is used to identify a site where a person proposes to, or has been required to, respond to a release of a regulated substance at a site. Persons intending to use the background standard, statewide health standard, the site-specific standard, or who intend to remediate a site as a special industrial area, must file a Notice of Intent to Remediate with the Department. A Notice of Intent to Remediate filed with the Department provides a brief description of the location of the site, a list of known suspected contaminants at the site, the proposed remediation measures for the site, and a description of the intended future use of the site. A person who demonstrates attainment of one, or a combination of the cleanup standards, or who receives approval of a special industrial area remediation identified under the Act, will be relieved of further liability for the remediation of the site for any contamination identified in reports submitted to and approved by the Department. Furthermore, the person shall not be subject to citizen suits or other contribution actions brought by responsible persons not participating in the remediation.
Under sections 304(n)(l)(ii) and 305(c)(2) of the Act, there is a 30-day public and municipal comment period for sites proposed for remediation using a site-specific standard, in whole or in part, and for sites remediated as a special industrial area. This period begins when a summary of the Notice of Intent to Remediate is published in a newspaper of general circulation in the area of the site. For the site(s) identified below proposed for remediation to a site-specific standard or as a special industrial area, the municipality, within which the site is located, may request to be involved in the development of the remediation and reuse plans for the site if the request is made within 30 days of the date specified. During this comment period the municipality may request that the person identified below, as the remediator of the site, develop and implement a public involvement plan. Requests to be involved, and comments, should be directed to the remediator of the site.
For further information concerning the content of a Notice of Intent to Remediate, please contact the Environmental Cleanup Program Manager in the Department of Environmental Protection Regional Office under which the notice appears. If information concerning this acknowledgment is required in an alternative form, contact the Community Relations Coordinator at the appropriate Regional Office listed.

AIR QUALITY Public Notice Notice of Plan Approval and Operating Permit Applications Nonmajor Sources and Modifications The Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) has developed an ''integrated plan approval, State operating permit and Title V operating permit program. This integrated approach is designed to make the permitting process more efficient for DEP, the regulated community and the public. This approach allows the owner or operator of a facility to complete and submit all the permitting documents relevant to its application one time, affords an opportunity for public input and provides for sequential issuance of the necessary permits.
Notice is hereby given that DEP has received applications for plan approvals and/or operating permits from the following facilities. Although the sources covered by these applications may be located at a major facility, the sources being installed or modified do not trigger major new source review or prevention of significant deterioration requirements.
Copies of these applications, subsequently prepared draft permits, review summaries and other support materials are available for review in the Regional Offices identified in this notice. Persons interested in reviewing the application files should contact the appropriate regional office to schedule an appointment.
Persons wishing to file protests or comments on the proposed plan approval and/or operating permits must submit the protest or comment within 30 days from the date of this notice. Interested persons may also request that a hearing be held concerning the proposed plan approval and operating permit. Any comments or protests filed with DEP Regional Offices must include a concise statement of the objections to the issuance of the plan approval or operating permit and relevant facts which serve as the basis for the objections. If DEP schedules a hearing, a notice will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin at least 30 days prior to the date of the hearing.
Final plan approvals and operating permits will contain terms and conditions to ensure that the source is constructed and operating in compliance with applicable requirements in 25 Pa. Code Chapters 121--143, the Federal Clean Air Act and regulations adopted under the act.

PENNSYLVANIA STREAM AND WETLAND CROSSINGS(*) The stream crossing will be completed in the dry. If there is flow at the time of construction, (and inserting is not available) the flow will be diverted away from the work area during construction and the conduit will be installed by plowing (or trenching as needed).
(**) These sites are committed by Transcom to be bored after consultation at USFWS office on regarding Bog Turtle Habitat.
(***) These sites are considered Bog Turtle habitat per M. McCarthy, USFWS on 9/15/99 and must be avoided, including equipment crossings.
(****) Crossing Methods and/or Restrictions per Andy Shiels, PAFBC letter dated 9/16/99.
E46-840. Encroachment. Columbia Transmission Communications Corporation, P. O. Box 10146, Fairfax, VA 22030-0146. Giving its consent to install and maintain a fiber optic utility line communication system across the Green Lane Reservoir (TSF) located approximately 2,400 feet southwest of the intersection of Gravel Pike (S.R. 0029) and Knight Road (Perkiomenville USGS Quadrangle N: 18.00 inches, W: 15.8 inches) in Upper Frederick and Marlborough Townships.
In addition, the permittee agrees to follow the recommendations made by the PA Fish and Boat Commission and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service regarding the construction methods for various wetland crossings along the fiber optic line route which may be potential habitat for the Bog turtle (threatened and endangered species).
This project is a segment of the Chesapeake Network Fiber Optic Project, which will be installed along existing Columbia Gas Pipeline right-of-way. In Pennsylvania, this project will extend through Lancaster, Chester, Montgomery, Bucks, Lehigh and Northampton Counties. Wetland disturbance will be temporary and minimized. In Montgomery County this linear project will extend from a point in Limerick Township (Phoenixville USGS Quadrangle N: 15.1 inches, W: 11.5 inches) to a point in Marlborough Township (Milford Square USGS Quadrangle N: 3.5 inches, W: 9.5 inches) and will traverse Upper Frederick Township. The descriptions and locations of all crossings are listed on the following Table 1.1.
