     The Department will also accept requests for public hearings 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.

    17-00001E: NRG REMA LLC (250 Power Plant Drive, Shawville, PA 16873) has submitted a plan approval application to the PA Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) for the proposed construction of a mechanical draft cooling tower at the Shawville Generating Station located in Bradford Township, Clearfield County.

     PA DEP's review of the information submitted by NRG REMA LLC indicates that the proposed cooling tower will comply with all applicable regulatory requirements, including the best available technology (BAT) of 25 Pa. Code §§ 127.1 and 127.12 and the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Industrial Process Cooling Towers as codified in 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart Q. The information shows the use of the proposed high efficiency drift eliminators will result in maximum drift rate equal to 0.0005% of the circulating water flow rate. In addition, operation of the proposed cooling tower will be prohibited to include the use of chromium-based water treatment chemicals. Based on this finding, the Department proposes to issue a plan approval for the proposed cooling tower. In addition to the restrictions provided above, the following is a brief description of the types of conditions the Department intends to place in the plan approval in order to ensure compliance with the applicable air quality regulatory requirements.

     In accordance with BAT, the emissions from the proposed cooling tower will not exceed the following limits: 3.0 lbs/hr of particulate matter (condensable and filterable), PM-10, and PM2.5 and 4.9 tons per 12 consecutive month period of particulate matter, PM-10, and PM2.5. The plan approval conditions include a throughput restriction which limits the total dissolved solids (TDS) of the cooling tower circulating water to 4,000 ppms. The plan approval includes monitoring conditions that pertain to the following parameters; the cooling tower circulating water TDS, and the cooling tower circulating pump hours of operation and discharge flow rates. The plan approval also includes recordkeeping and reporting of the monthly emissions of particulate matter, PM-10, and PM2.5.

     The extension of compliance for the electric generating units located at the facility with respect to the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Coal- and Oil-Fired Electric Utility Steam Generating Units was included in the plan approval. The plan approval condition requires the facility to adhere to the compliance schedule as received on September 11, 2014.

     The facility is a major (Title V) facility. If the Department determines that the source is constructed and operated in compliance with the plan approval conditions including the specifications of the application for Plan Approval 17-00001E, the requirements established in the plan approval will be incorporated into Title V Operating Permit 17-00001 pursuant to the administrative amendment provisions of 25 Pa. Code § 127.450.

     All pertinent documents used in the evaluation of the application are available for public review during normal business hours at the Department's Northcentral Regional office, 208 West Third Street, Suite 101, Williamsport, PA 17701. Appointments for scheduling a review must be made by calling 570-327-0550.

    MINING ACTIVITY NPDES DRAFT PERMITS

     This notice provides information about applications for a new, amended or renewed NPDES permits associated with mining activity (coal or noncoal) permits. The applications concern industrial waste (mining) discharges to surface water and discharges of stormwater associated with mining activities. This notice is provided in accordance with 25 Pa. Code Chapters 91 and 92a and 40 CFR Part 122, implementing provisions of The Clean Streams Law (35 P. S. §§ 691.1—691.1001) and the Federal Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C.A. §§ 1251—1376).

     The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has prepared a draft NPDES permit and made a tentative determination to issue the NPDES permit in conjunction with the associated mining activity permit.

    Effluent Limits for Coal Mining Activities

     For coal mining activities, NPDES permits, when issued, will contain effluent limits that are the more stringent of technology-based (BAT) effluent limitations or Water Quality Based Effluent Limits (WQBEL).

     The BAT limits for coal mining activities, as provided in 40 CFR Part 434 and 25 Pa. Code Chapters 87—90 are as follows:

    30-Day Daily Instantaneous
    Parameter Average Maximum Maximum
    Iron (Total) 3.0 mg/l 6.0 mg/l 7.0 mg/l
    Manganese (Total) 2.0 mg/l 4.0 mg/l 5.0 mg/l
    Suspended solids 35 mg/l 70 mg/l 90 mg/l
    pH* greater than 6.0; less than 9.0
    Alkalinity greater than acidity*
    * The parameter is applicable at all times.

     A settleable solids instantaneous maximum limit of 0.5 ml/l applies to: surface runoff (resulting from a precipitation event of less than or equal to a 10-year 24-hour event) from active mining areas; active areas disturbed by coal refuse disposal activities; mined areas backfilled and revegetated; and all other discharges and drainage (resulting from a precipitation event of greater than 1-year 24-hour to less than or equal to a 10-year 24-hour event) from coal refuse disposal piles. Similarly, modified BAT limits apply to iron, manganese and suspended solids in surface runoff, discharges and drainage resulting from these precipitation events and those of greater magnitude in accordance with 25 Pa. Code §§ 87.102, 88.92, 88.187, 88.292, 89.52 and 90.102.

     Exceptions to BAT effluent limits may be applicable in accordance with 25 Pa. Code §§ 87.102, 88.92, 88.187, 88.292, 89.52 and 90.102.

    Effluent Limits for Noncoal Mining Activities

     The limits for noncoal mining activities as provided in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 77 are pH 6 to 9 and other parameters the Department may require.

     Discharges from noncoal mines located in some geologic settings (for example, in the coal fields) may require additional water quality based 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.

     In addition to BAT or WQBEL limits, coal and noncoal NPDES permits establish effluent limitations in the form of implemented Best Management Practices (BMPs) identified in the associated Erosion and Sedimentation Plan, the Reclamation Plan and the NPDES permit application. These BMPs restrict the rates and quantities of associated pollutants from being discharged into surface waters in this Commonwealth.

     More restrictive effluent limitations, restrictions on discharge volume or restrictions on the extent of mining that may occur are 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 found in Technical Guidance Document 563-2112-115, Developing National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permits for Mining Activities. Other specific factors to be considered include public comments and Total Maximum Daily Load(s). Additional discharge limitations may apply in the event that unexpected discharges occur.

     Discharge rates for surface mining activities are precipitation driven. Discharge rates for proposed discharges associated with underground mining are noted in the permit description.

     Persons wishing to comment on an NPDES draft permit should submit a written statement to the Department at the address of the district mining office indicated before each draft permit 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. Comments 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 § 92a.82(d). 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.

     Sections I—VI contain actions regarding industrial, animal or sewage wastes discharges, discharges to groundwater, and discharges associated with MS4, stormwater associated with construction activities and CAFOs. Section VII contains notices for parties who have submitted NOIs for Coverage under General NPDES Permits. The approval for coverage under these General NPDES Permits is subject to applicable effluent limitations, monitoring, reporting requirements and other conditions in each General Permit. The approval of coverage for land application of sewage sludge or residential septage under applicable general permit is subject to pollutant limitations, pathogen and vector attraction reduction requirements, operational standards, general requirements, management practices and other conditions in the respective permit. The permits and related documents, effluent limitations, permitting requirements and other information are on file and may be inspected and arrangements made for copying at the contact office noted before the action.

     Persons aggrieved by an action may appeal that action to the Environmental Hearing Board (Board) under section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act (35 P. S. § 7514) and 2 Pa.C.S. §§ 501—508 and 701—704 (relating to Administrative Agency Law).

The appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure are also available in Braille or on audiotape from the Secretary to the Board at (717) 787-3483. This paragraph does not, in and of itself, create a right of appeal beyond that permitted by applicable statutes and decisional law.

     For individuals who wish to challenge an action, the appeal must reach the Board within 30 days. A lawyer is not needed to file an appeal with the Board.

     Important legal rights are at stake, however, so individuals should contact a lawyer at once. Persons who cannot afford a lawyer may qualify for free pro bono representation. Call the Secretary to the Board at (717) 787-3483 for more information.

    NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT PLANS RELATED TO APPLICATIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS FOR CAFOs

     The State Conservation Commission has taken the following actions on previously received applications for nutrient management plans under 3 Pa.C.S. Chapter 5, for agricultural operations that have or anticipate submitting applications for new, amended or renewed NPDES permits or NOIs for coverage under a general permit for CAFOs under 25 Pa. Code Chapter 92a.

     Persons aggrieved by an action may appeal under 3 Pa.C.S. § 517, section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act and 2 Pa.C.S. §§ 501—508 and 701—704 to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, P. O. Box 8457, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8457, (717) 787-3483. TDD users should contact the Environmental Hearing Board (Board) through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

The appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure are also available in Braille or on audiotape from the Secretary of the Board at (717) 787-3483.

     For individuals who wish to challenge actions, appeals must reach the Board within 30 days. A lawyer is not needed to file an appeal with the Board.

     Important legal rights are at stake, however, so individuals should show this notice to a lawyer at once. Persons who cannot afford a lawyer may qualify for pro bono representation. Call the Secretary of the Board at (717) 787-3483 for more information.

    Water Quality Certification under Section 401 of the Federal Clean Water Act for the Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Company, LLC—Rock Springs Expansion Project;

    DEP File No. EA 36-034

     On June 23, 2014, Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Company, LLC (Transco) filed an application with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) in Docket No. CP14-504-000 under Section 7(b) and (c) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) for the purpose of obtaining a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity (Certificate) to construct, own, and operate the Transco Rock Springs Expansion Project located in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania and Cecil County, Maryland. The proposed Rock Springs Expansion Project facilities in Pennsylvania would consist of approximately 10.14 miles of new 20-inch diameter natural gas pipeline in Drumore and Fulton Townships, Lancaster County and the modification of an existing compressor station in East Whiteland Township, Chester County.

     On July 15, 2014, Transco submitted a request for Water Quality Certification under Section 401 of the Federal Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. § 1341) for the Rock Springs Expansion Project to the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP).

     The purpose of the Rock Springs Expansion Project is to deliver natural gas from Transco's existing mainlines ''A'' and ''B'' to the proposed Old Dominion Electric Cooperative's (ODEC) Wildcat Point Generating Facility, located in Cecil County, Maryland, for power generation.

     Modification to one existing compressor station, Compressor Station 200 in East Whiteland Twp., Chester Co., PA, is proposed to allow for bi-directional flow along Transco's existing mainline system.

     The Rock Springs Expansion Project also includes various aboveground facilities, including pig launchers, piping, and valves that would be constructed to support the pipeline system expansion and compressor station modification in Pennsylvania.

     Pursuant to Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. § 1341), the PADEP, by this notice, proposes to certify that the construction, operation and maintenance of the Rock Springs Expansion Project complies with the applicable provisions of the Clean Water Act, through compliance with the following State water quality permitting programs, criteria and conditions established pursuant to Pennsylvania's Clean Stream Law (35 P. S. §§ 691.1—691.1001), which ensure the Project does not violate applicable water quality standards set forth in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 93:

     1. Discharge Permit—Transco shall obtain and comply with a PADEP National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit for the discharge of water from the hydrostatic testing of the Rock Springs Expansion Project pipeline pursuant to Pennsylvania's Clean Streams Law (35 P. S. §§ 691.1—691.1001) and all applicable implementing regulations (25 Pa. Code Chapter 92a).

     2. Erosion and Sediment Control Permit—Transco shall obtain and comply with PADEP's Chapter 102 Erosion and Sediment Control General Permit for Earth Disturbance Associated with Oil and Gas Exploration, Production, Processing or Treatment (ESCGP-2 permit) for the Rock Springs Expansion Project issued pursuant to Pennsylvania's Clean Streams Law and Storm Water Management Act (32 P. S. §§ 680.1—680.17) and all applicable implementing regulations (25 Pa. Code Chapter 102).

     3. Water Obstruction and Encroachment Permits—Transco shall obtain and comply with a PADEP Chapter 105 Water Obstruction and Encroachment Permits for the construction, operation and maintenance of all water obstructions and encroachments associated with the Rock Springs Expansion Project pursuant to Pennsylvania's Clean Streams Law, Dam Safety and Encroachments Act (32 P. S. §§ 673.1—693.27), and Flood Plain Management Act (32 P. S. §§ 679.101—679.601.) and all applicable implementing regulations (25 Pa. Code Chapter 105).
