    Section IV NPDES MS4 individual permit
    Section V NPDES MS4 permit waiver
    Section VI NPDES Individual permit stormwater construction
    Section VII NPDES NOI for coverage under NPDES general permits

       For NPDES renewal applications in Section I, the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has made a tentative determination to reissue these permits for 5 years subject to effluent limitations and monitoring and reporting requirements in their current permits, with appropriate and necessary updated requirements to reflect new and changed regulations and other requirements.

       For applications for new NPDES permits and renewal applications with major changes in Section II, as well as applications for MS4 individual permits and individual stormwater construction permits in Sections IV and VI, the Department, based upon preliminary reviews, has made a tentative determination of proposed effluent limitations and other terms and conditions for the permit applications. These determinations are published as proposed actions for comments prior to taking final actions.

       Unless indicated otherwise, the EPA Region III Administrator has waived the right to review or object to proposed NPDES permit actions under the waiver provision in 40 CFR 123.24(d).

       Persons wishing to comment on an NPDES application are invited to submit a statement to the regional office noted before an application within 30 days from the date of this public notice. Persons wishing to comment on a WQM permit application are invited to submit a statement to the regional office noted before the application within 15 days from the date of this public notice. Comments received within the respective comment periods will be considered in the final determinations regarding the applications. Comments should include the name, address and telephone number of the writer and a concise statement to inform the Department of the exact basis of a comment and the relevant facts upon which it is based.

       The Department will also accept requests for a public hearing on applications. A public hearing may be held if the responsible office considers the public response significant. If a hearing is scheduled, a notice of the hearing will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin and a newspaper of general circulation within the relevant geographical area. The Department will postpone its final determination until after a public hearing is held.

    LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION

    UNDER ACT 2, 1995

    PREAMBLE 1


    Acknowledgment of Notices of Intent to Remediate Submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).

       Sections 302--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 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 or 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, 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)(1)(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 sites identified, 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 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, contact the environmental cleanup program manager in the Department regional office before 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. TDD users may telephone the Department through the AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

    PLAN APPROVAL AND OPERATING PERMIT APPLICATIONS

    NEW SOURCES AND MODIFICATIONS

       The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) 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 the Department, 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.

       The Department has received applications for plan approvals and/or operating permits from the following facilities.

       Copies of the applications, subsequently prepared draft permits, review summaries and other support materials are available for review in the regional office identified in this notice. Persons interested in reviewing the application files should contact the appropriate regional office to schedule an appointment.

       Persons wishing to receive a copy of a proposed plan approval or operating permit must indicate their interest to the Department regional office indicated before an application within 30 days of the date of this notice and must file protests or comments on a proposed plan approval or operating permit within 30 days of the Department providing a copy of the proposed document to that person or within 30 days of its publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, whichever comes first. Interested persons may also request that a hearing be held concerning a proposed plan approval or operating permit. Comments or protests filed with Department 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 the Department schedules a hearing, a notice will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin at least 30 days prior the date of the hearing.

       Persons with a disability who wish to comment and require an auxiliary aid, service or other accommodation to participate should contact the regional office identified before the application. TDD users may contact the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

    PREAMBLE 2


    The following plans and reports were submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).

       Provisions of Chapter 3 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of submission of plans and reports. A final report is submitted to document cleanup of a release of a regulated substance at a site to one of the act's remediation standards. A final report provides a description of the site investigation to characterize the nature and extent of contaminants in environmental media, the basis for selecting the environmental media of concern, documentation supporting the selection of residential or nonresidential exposure factors, a description of the remediation performed and summaries of sampling analytical results which demonstrate that remediation has attained the cleanup standard selected. Submission of plans and reports, other than the final report, shall also be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. These include the remedial investigation report, risk assessment report and cleanup plan for a site-specific standard remediation. A remedial investigation report includes conclusions from the site investigation, concentration of regulated substances in environmental media; benefits of refuse of the property and, in some circumstances, a fate and transport analysis. If required, a risk assessment report describes potential adverse effects caused by the presence of regulated substances. If required, a cleanup plan evaluates the abilities of potential remedies to achieve remedy requirements.

       For further information concerning plans or reports, contact the Environmental Cleanup Program manager in the Department regional office after which the notice of receipt of plans or reports appears. If information concerning plans or reports is required in an alternative form, contact the Community Relations Coordinator at the appropriate regional office.

    Request for Comment and Notice of Public Meeting for the Proposed Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) for the Brubaker Run Watershed in Cambria County

    Cambria District Mining Office: 286 Industrial Park Road, Ebensburg, PA 15931.

       The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) is holding a public meeting on Tuesday, February 17, 2004, at 6:30 p.m. at the Saint Thomas Church in Ashville, PA to discuss and accept comments on a proposed TMDL. The proposed TMDL was established in accordance with the requirements of 1996 Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. Two stream segments in the Brubaker Run Watershed have been identified as impaired on the 1996, 1998 and 2002 Pennsylvania 303(d) lists due to depressed pH and/or high concentrations of metals. The listed segments and miles degraded are shown in the following table:

    Stream Code
    Stream Name
    Miles Degraded
    26489 (Segment 4026) Brubaker Run 2.9  
    26489 (Segment 990819-0920-LMS) Brubaker Run 7.23

       The proposed plan provides calculations of the stream's total capacity to accept metals (aluminum, iron and manganese) and pH and maintain levels below water quality criteria. The applicable water quality criteria are as follows:

    Parameter Criterion Value (mg/l) Total Recoverable/Dissolved
    Aluminum 0.75 Total Recoverable
    Iron 1.5 Total Recoverable
    Manganese 1.00 Total Recoverable
    pH 6.0--9.0 N/A

       The primary pollutant source for the watershed is abandoned mine workings. This watershed was heavily mined for coal in the 20th century. The effects of this are still present. The TMDL consists of both load allocations (LA), which are made to nonpoint sources of pollution and waste load allocations (WLA), which are made to point sources of pollution.

       The TMDL was developed using Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) to determine long-term average concentrations that each stream segment could accept and still meet water quality criteria 99% of the time. MCS allows for the expansion of a dataset based on its statistical makeup. Since there was no critical flow condition where criteria were exceeded, the Department used the average flow to express the loading values in the TMDL.

       The TMDL sets allowable loading rates for metals and acidity at specified points in the watershed. The basis of information used in the establishment of this TMDL is field data collected throughout 2001.

       The data and all supporting information used to develop the proposed TMDL are available from the Department. To request a copy of the proposed TMDL and an information sheet, contact Miles Baird at (814) 472-1900 between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m., Monday through Friday, at the Cambria District Mining Office, 286 Industrial Park Road, Ebensburg, PA 15931, mbaird@state.pa.us. Directions to the meeting place can also be obtained through this contact.

       The TMDL can be viewed and printed by accessing the Department's website at www.dep.state.pa.us (DEP Keyword: TMDL).

       Written comments will be accepted at the previous address and must be postmarked by March 31, 2004. Persons who plan to make a presentation at the public meeting should notify the Department by 4 p.m. on Tuesday, February 10, 2004. The Department will consider all comments in developing the final TMDL, which will be submitted to the EPA for approval.

    Request for Comment and Notice of Public Meeting for the Proposed Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) for the Cucumber Run Watershed in Somerset County

       Greensburg District Mining Office:  Watershed Manager, Armbrust Professional Center, R. D. 2 Box 603-C, Greensburg, PA 15601.

       The Department is holding a public meeting on March 4, 2004, at 7 p.m. at the Confluence Community Center, Confluence Borough Building in Confluence, PA to discuss and accept comments on a proposed TMDL, established in accordance with the requirements of 1996 Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. Two stream segments in the Cucumber Run Watershed have been identified as impaired on the 1996, 1998 and 2002 Pennsylvania 303(d) lists due to depressed pH and high concentrations of metals. The listed segments and miles degraded are shown in the following table:

    Stream Code Stream Name Miles Degraded
    38817 (Segment 4838) Cucumber Run 1.7
    38817 (Segment 990102-1035-TVP) Cucumber Run 1.7

       The proposed plan provides calculations of the stream's total capacity to accept metals and pH and maintain levels below water quality criteria. The applicable water quality criteria are as follows:

    Parameter Criterion Value (mg/l) Total Recoverable/Dissolved
    Aluminum 0.75 Total Recoverable
    Iron 1.5  Total Recoverable
    Manganese 1.00 Total Recoverable
    pH 6.0--9.0 N/A

       The primary pollutant source for the watershed is abandoned mine workings. Portions of this watershed were mined for coal in the mid to late 20th century. All of the allocations made in the TMDL are LA that are made to nonpoint sources of pollution.

       The TMDL was developed using MCS to determine long-term average concentrations that each stream segment could accept and still meet water quality criteria 99% of the time. MCS allows for the expansion of a dataset based on its statistical makeup. Since there was no critical flow condition where criteria were exceeded, the Department used the average flow to express the loading values in the TMDL.

       The TMDL sets allowable loading rates for metals and acidity at specified points in the watershed. The basis of information used in the establishment of this TMDL is field data collected in 2003.

       The data and all supporting information used to develop the proposed TMDL are available from the Department. To request a copy of the proposed TMDL and an information sheet, contact Ron Horansky at (724) 925-5500 between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m., Monday through Friday, at Armbrust Professional Center, R. D. 2 Box 603-C, Greensburg, PA 15601, rhoransky@state.pa.us. Directions to the meeting place can also be obtained through this contact.

       The TMDL can be viewed and printed by accessing the Department's website at www.dep.state.pa.us (DEP Keyword: TMDL).

       Written comments will be accepted at the previous address and must be postmarked by April 7, 2004. Persons who plan to make a presentation at the public meeting should notify the Department by 4 p.m. on Wednesday, February 25, 2004. The Department will consider all comments in developing the final TMDL, which will be submitted to the EPA for approval.
