     Description of Existing Activity: The Department is proposing to amend the Scranton Sewer Authority's NPDES Permit for the discharge of treated sewage to the Lackawanna River. The effluent limits are based upon a design discharge rate of 20 MGD. The current permit was issued on September 21, 2009, became effective on October 21, 2009, and expires on September 30, 2014. The purpose of the amendment is to revise the final Total Residual Chlorine (TRC) effluent limitations contained in the permit based upon a Site Specific Chlorine Demand Study (Study) and in accordance with the stipulation of settlement entered into on March 2, 2011 in the matter of Scranton Sewer Authority v. DEP, EHB Docket No. 2010-043-M. Based upon the Study, the TRC effluent limitations will be revised to 0.37 mg/l monthly average and 1.35 mg/l instantaneous maximum effective upon issuance. The proposed permit amendment has been drafted using an updated permit template that reflects the Chapter 92a Regulations that became effective on October 9, 2010. The Discharge Monitoring Report and Supplemental forms have also been updated. There are no other substantive changes to the permit.

     The receiving stream, Lackawanna River, is located in State Water Plan Basin 5A and is classified for Cold Water Fishes, aquatic life, water supply and recreation. The discharge is not expected to affect public water supplies.

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 following site, 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 as follows. 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.

    COAL AND NONCOAL MINING ACTIVITY APPLICATIONS

     Applications under the Surface Mining Conservation and Reclamation Act (52 P. S. §§ 1396.1—1396.19a); the Noncoal Surface Mining Conservation and Reclamation Act (52 P. S. §§ 3301—3326); The Clean Streams Law; the Coal Refuse Disposal Control Act (52 P. 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 news- paper 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.

    Plan Description: The Corrective Action Plan (CAP), submitted as a plan update revision to West Hazleton Borough's (Borough) Official Sewage Facilities Plan, proposes a systematic investigation that will identify and propose corrective measures for portions of the Borough's wastewater collection system that may be subject to excessive amounts of infiltration/inflow (I/I). The CAP is also intended to reduce hydraulic overloading at the Greater Hazleton Joint Sewer Authority's Wastewater Treatment Facility. The CAP also contains an implementation schedule for its investigative activities. The CAP is now to be considered an integral part of the Borough's Official Sewage Facilities Plan.

     Should conditions be encountered during the implementation of the CAP, which require the alteration of the approved CAP, the Borough shall contact the Department, in writing, and discuss the need to alter the CAP at the earliest possible time. Any additional wastewater-related improvements, additions, deletions or changes outside of those explicitly described in the CAP must be in compliance with the Department's regulations and be submitted to and approved by the Department in writing.

The applicant proposes to construct 2,869 linear feet of roadway with well pads and install pipeline for oil and gas within the roadway. The total acreage proposed to be disturbed is 2.95 acres. The water obstructions and encroachments associated with the project include the construction and maintenance of two pipeline/road stream crossings of a UNT to Browns Run (EV) and four pipeline/road crossings of PEM EV wetlands, resulting in a permanent impact of 107 feet of stream and 0.103 acre of wetland. The construction of 0.103 acre of PEM wetland is proposed as mitigation for wetland impacts. The water obstructions and encroachments for the purpose of installing the roadways and pipeline are described below:

     (1) Wetland A: Construction of a permanent road crossing and a 2" diameter plastic gathering line to be installed by open trench under a palustrine emergent (PEM) EV wetland. Impacted area: 281 square feet; (41° 48` 15" N, 79° 00` 32" W).

     (2) Wetland B: Construction of a permanent road crossing with a 12" culvert and a 2" diameter plastic gathering line to be installed by open trench under a palustrine emergent (PEM) EV wetland. Impacted area: 624 square feet; (41° 48` 15" N, 79° 00` 31" W).

     (3) Wetland C: Construction of a permanent road crossing with 24" culvert at Stream Crossing #3 and a 2" diameter plastic gathering line to be installed by open trench under a palustrine emergent (PEM) EV wetland. Impacted area: 2623 square feet; (41° 48` 16" N, 79° 00` 28" W).

     (4) Wetland F: Construction of a permanent road crossing with a 12" culvert to be installed in a palustrine emergent (PEM) EV wetland. Impacted area: 956 square feet; (41° 48` 13" N, 79° 00` 30" W).

     (5) Stream Crossing #3: Construction of a permanent road crossing with a 49.5 foot long, 24 inch diameter culvert and a 2" diameter plastic pipeline to be installed by open trench across an unnamed tributary to Browns Run (EV). Impacted area: 297 square feet; (41° 48` 15" N, 79° 00` 28" W).

     (6) Stream Crossing #4: Construction of a permanent road crossing with a 57.7 foot long, 12 inch diameter culvert and a 2" diameter plastic pipeline to be installed by open trench across an unnamed tributary to Browns Run (EV). Impacted area: 173 square feet; (41° 48` 15" N, 79° 00` 22" W).

    SPECIAL NOTICES

    Categorical Exclusion

    Northwest Regional Office, Water Supply Management, 230 Chestnut Street, Meadville, PA 16335

    Location: Brent Community Cooperative Water Association, Inc., Plaingrove Township, Lawrence County

     Description: The Pennsylvania Infrastructure Investment Authority, which administers the Commonwealth's State Revolving Fund, is intended to be the funding source for this project. Brent Community Cooperative Water Association, Inc. has applied for the Design and Engineering for repairing/replacing the existing Public Water Supply system in order to comply with the Safe Drinking Water Rules and Regulations.

     The Department's review of the project and the information received has not identified any significant, adverse environmental impact resulting from this proposal. The Department hereby categorically excludes this project from the State Environmental Review Process.

    Request for Comments on the Proposed Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) Developed for the Susquehanna River, Unnamed Tributary 07251 Watershed in Lancaster County Pennsylvania

     The Department of Environmental Protection will accept comments on the proposed TMDLs developed for the Susquehanna River, Unnamed Tributary 07251 Watershed in Lancaster County, PA. These TMDLs were 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. These proposed TMDLs set allowable loadings of sediment in the Susquehanna River, Unnamed Tributary 07251 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 TMDLs are also identified.

    Request for Comments on the Proposed Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) Developed for the West Branch Antietam Creek Watershed in Franklin County Pennsylvania

     The Department of Environmental Protection will accept comments on the proposed TMDLs developed for the West Branch Antietam Creek Watershed in Franklin County, PA. These TMDLs were 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 and/or nutrients.

     There currently are no state or federal instream numerical water quality criteria for siltation or nutrients. Therefore, the Department utilized a reference watershed approach to implement the applicable narrative criteria. These proposed TMDLs set allowable loadings of sediment and phosphorus in the West Branch Antietam Creek Watershed. Phosphorus was chosen as the TMDL endpoint for nutrient impairments due to it being the limiting nutrient in the watershed. The sediment and phosphorus 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 and phosphorus loadings for the watershed. Overall load reductions necessary in order to meet the TMDLs are also identified.
