The permit authorizes the discharge of stormwater from the outfalls of PennDOT's regulated small municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4s) in all designated urbanized areas within Pennsylvania. Stormwater discharges from the outfalls of the regulated small MS4s flow into waters of the Commonwealth within the designated urbanized areas of Pennsylvania. Since no new discharges are authorized by this permit, no potable water supplies will be affected by the proposed renewal.
This notice is provided in accordance with 25 Pa. Code Chapters 91 and 92 implementing the Clean Streams Law (35 P. S. §§ 691.1 et seq.) and 40 CFR Part 122 implementing the Federal Clean Water Act (33 USC Section 1251 et seq.).
The renewal application describes special conditions including a Stormwater Management Program to satisfy six (6) Minimum Control Measures (MCMs) that meet the narrative effluent limitations required by 40 CFR § 122.34. The permit renewal application proposes to satisfy discharge requirements associated with approved Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) through special conditions established in future NPDES permits for stormwater discharges associated with construction activities. The proposed permit renewal will become effective June 10, 2012 and will continue for a term of five (5) years until June 9, 2017. The applicant's existing MS4 individual permit has been extended through June 9, 2012.
Individuals interested in obtaining further information or to inspect and copy the application for permit renewal may contact the Department using the following address: Barry A. Newman, Chief of the Stormwater Planning and Management Section, Department of Environmental Protection, Bureau of Watershed Management, Rachel Carson State Office Building, P. O. Box 8775, 10th Floor, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8775. Persons wishing to comment on the proposed permit must submit written comments within 30 days following the date of this public notice.

S. §§ 30.51—30.66); and The Bituminous Mine Subsidence and Land Conservation Act (52 P. S. §§ 1406.1—1406.20a). Mining activity permits issued in response to applications will also address the applicable permitting requirements of the following statutes: the Air Pollution Control Act (35 P. S. §§ 4001—4014); the Dam Safety and Encroachments Act (32 P. S. §§ 693.1—693.27); and the Solid Waste Management Act (35 P. S. §§ 6018.101—6018.1002).
The following permit applications to conduct mining activities have been received by the Department. A copy of an application is available for inspection at the district mining office indicated before each application. Notices of requests for 401 Water Quality Certifications are included in individual application notices, as noted.
Written comments or objections, or requests for an informal conference or a public hearing, as applicable, on a mining permit application may be submitted by a person or an officer or head of Federal, state or local government agency or authority to the Department at the address of the district mining office indicated before each application within 30 days of this publication or within 30 days after the last publication of the applicant's newspaper advertisement, as provided by 25 Pa. Code §§ 77.121—77.123 and 86.31—86.34.
Written comments or objections regarding a mining permit application should contain the name, address and telephone number of the person submitting comments or objections, the application number and a statement of sufficient detail to inform the Department on the basis of comment or objection and relevant facts upon which it is based.
A request for an informal conference or a public hearing, as applicable, on a mining permit application, as provided by 25 Pa. Code § 77.123 or § 86.34, must contain the name, address and telephone number of the requestor; the application number; a brief summary of the issues to be raised by the requestor at the conference; and a statement whether the requestor desires to have the conference conducted in the locality of the proposed mining activities.
When an NPDES number is listed, the mining activity permit application was accompanied by an application for an individual NPDES permit. The Department has made a tentative determination to issue the NPDES permit in conjunction with the mining activity permit, but the issuance of the NPDES permit is contingent upon the approval of the associated mining activity permit.
For coal mining activities, NPDES permits, when issued, will contain effluent limits that do not exceed the technology-based effluent limitations. The proposed limits are listed in Table 1.
For noncoal mining activities, the proposed limits are in Table 2. Discharges from noncoal mines located in some geologic settings (for example, in coal fields) may require additional effluent limits. If additional effluent limits are needed for an NPDES permit associated with a noncoal mining permit, then the permit description specifies the parameters. The limits will be in the ranges specified in Table 1.
More restrictive effluent limitations, restrictions on discharge volume or restrictions on the extent of mining that may occur will be incorporated into an NPDES permit when necessary for compliance with water quality standards and antidegradation requirements (in accordance with 25 Pa. Code Chapters 91—96).
The procedures for determining the final effluent limits, using a mass-balance equation or model, are in Technical Guidance Document 362-0600-001, NPDES Program Implementation-Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Concerning Water Quality Management, NPDES Program Implementation, and Related Matters. Other specific factors to be considered include public comments and Total Maximum Daily Loads.
Persons wishing to comment on NPDES permit applications should submit statements to the Department at the address of the district mining office indicated before each application within 30 days of this public notice. Comments received within the comment period will be considered in the final determinations regarding the NPDES permit applications. A comment must 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 or petitions for a public hearing on NPDES permit applications as provided in 25 Pa. Code § 92.61. The request or petition for a public hearing shall be filed within 30 days of this public notice and contain the name, address, telephone number and the interest of the party filing the request and state the reasons why a hearing is warranted. A public hearing may be held if the Department considers the public interest significant. If a hearing is scheduled, a notice of the hearing on the NPDES permit application will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin and a newspaper of general circulation within the relevant geographical area. When a public hearing is held, the Department will consider comments from the public hearing in the final determination on the NPDES permit application.

To construct and maintain: 1) 41.25 cubic yards of earthen fill and stonewalls for a 25-foot by 35-foot riverfront patio, 2) a 20-foot long by 24-foot wide open-sided pavilion on top of the patio to over-look the West Branch Susquehanna River and an at-grade 20-foot long by 24-foot wide by 4 inches thick concrete pad on top of the existing gravel patio surface, 3) a 6-foot wide by 30-foot long by 2-foot deep flood relief channel on the landward side of the patio area with the channel floor 6-inches higher in elevation than the normal water elevation in Holland Run, 4) a 5-foot wide by 10-foot long foot-bridge over this new relief channel to allow for access to the patio, all of which is located on the upstream left edge of Holland's Run confluence with the West Branch Susquehanna River, which is in the 100-year floodway of the river. This project proposes to indirectly impact 35 linear feet of the left streambank of Holland's Run, which is classified as a High Quality—Cold Water Fishery and 25 linear feet of the right floodway of the West Branch Susquehanna River, which is classified as a Warm Water Fishery.
E49-315. Northumberland Terminals Corporation, PO Box 2621, Harrisburg, PA 17105-2621. Northumberland East, in Point Township, Northumberland County, ACOE Baltimore District (Riverside, PA Quadrangle Latitude: 40-54-59.37; Longitude: 76-45-1.42).
The proposed activity includes wetland and stream impacts. There are 400 linear feet of stream impacts associated with stream relocation, stabilization, and a vehicle crossing in an unnamed tributary to the Susquehanna River, Warm Water Fishery. The stream stabilization is proposing utilizing toe riprap and an imbricated rip-rap wall. The vehicular crossing is proposed to be a 1 foot by 5 foot box culvert crossing that is 45 linear feet long with a total stream impact of 65 linear feet, including the outlet apron and inlet protection. An aerial utility line will cross the unnamed Tributary to the Susquehanna River 23 feet above the stream due to also crossing a rail spur. The rail spur will permanently impact 0.51 acres of wetland. This is proposed to be mitigated with 0.83 acres of wetland creation located 1,500 feet southwest of the project area on the nearby Northumberland Terminals Corporation property.

LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION UNDER ACT 2, 1995 PREAMBLE 2
The following plans and reports were submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101—6026.907).
Provisions of Sections 301—308 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) (35 P. S. §§ 6026.301—6026.308) require the 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, will 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 reuse 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 under 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. TDD users may telephone the Department through the AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

The Department has taken action on the following plans and reports under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101—6026.907).
Section 250.8 of 25 Pa. Code and administration of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of its final actions on 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 remediation standards of the act. A final report provides a description of the site investigation to characterize the nature and extent of contaminants in environmental media, the basis of 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 methodology and analytical results which demonstrate that the remediation has attained the cleanup standard selected. Plans and reports required by the act for compliance with selection of remediation to a site-specific standard, in addition to a final report, include a remedial investigation report, risk assessment report and cleanup plan. A remedial investigation report includes conclusions from the site investigation; concentration of regulated substances in environmental media; benefits of reuse 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. A work plan for conducting a baseline remedial investigation is required by the act for compliance with selection of a special industrial area remediation. The baseline remedial investigation, based on the work plan, is compiled into the baseline environmental report to establish a reference point to show existing contamination, describe proposed remediation to be done and include a description of existing or potential public benefits of the use or reuse of the property. The Department may approve or disapprove plans and reports submitted. This notice provides the Department's decision and, if relevant, the basis for disapproval.
For further information concerning the plans and reports, contact the environmental cleanup program manager in the Department regional office under which the notice of the plan or report appears.

Request for Comments on the Proposed Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Developed for the
Beaverdam Creek Watershed in Adams CountyThe Department of Environmental Protection will accept comments on the proposed TMDL developed for the Beaverdam Creek Watershed in Adams County, PA. This TMDL was established in accordance with the requirements of Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. The Pennsylvania Integrated Water Quality Monitoring and Assessment Report included impaired stream segments in this watershed. The listings of these waterbodies were due to use impairments caused by excessive siltation.
There currently are no state or federal instream numerical water quality criteria for siltation. Therefore, the Department utilized a reference watershed approach to implement the applicable narrative criteria. This proposed TMDL set allowable loadings of sediment in the Beaverdam Creek Watershed. The sediment loadings were allocated among cropland, hay/pasture land, transitional land and streambank categories present in the watershed. Data used in establishing these TMDLs was generated using a water quality analysis model (AVGWLF) designed by the Pennsylvania State University.
The following table shows the estimated current sediment loadings for the watershed. Overall load reductions necessary in order to meet the TMDL is also identified.
