Northwest Region: Clean Water Program Manager, 230 Chestnut Street, Meadville, PA 16335-3481Notice of Re-Drafted Permit for Site-Specific Water Quality Criterion for Zinc
Pursuant to 25 Pa. Code § 16.24(d), the Department proposes to amend the following permit by incorporating the results of a Water-Effect Ratio (WER) into the calculation of the water quality based effluent limit for Zinc. The WER is a biological determination of a site-specific aquatic life criterion, determined by conducting toxicity testing on sensitive aquatic species using site or simulated site water and comparing it to testing performed using lab dilution water. The WER procedure recognizes that the physical and chemical characteristics of site water can influence the toxicity of a chemical on aquatic life. On October 3, 2014, the City of Saint Marys submitted a final report on the confirmatory WER tests for Zinc, which were conducted in November 2013, January 2014 and July 2014. Following review of their sampling protocol and study results, EPA determined that the WER listed below is approvable, and can be used to modify the subject NPDES permit's Zinc limit.
Alternate site specific criteria for zinc have been developed by multiplying the fish and aquatic life zinc criterion contained in Ch. 93, Table 5, by the following WER. The WER acts as a multiplier in the calculation of the NPDES permit limits for Zinc.
Facility Permit Number Receiving Stream Dissolved WER City of Saint Marys PA0026387 Elk Creek 1.235 A Zinc limit of 0.22 mg/l (monthly average) has been calculated, based on the site-specific criterion developed by means of the above referenced Water Effects Ratio (WER) process.
These changes will affect the Zinc limits of the Saint Marys discharge only.
Persons wishing to comment on this proposal are invited to submit a statement to the Regional Manager, Water Management, Department of Environmental Protection, 230 Chestnut Street, Meadville, PA 16335-3481.
Comments must be received within 30 days from the date of this public notice. Comments received within this 30-day comment period will be considered in the formulation of the final determination regarding this proposal. Responses 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.
Following the 30-day comment period, the Water Management Program Manager will amend and issue the final NPDES permit to reflect the results of the WER for Zinc.
The proposal and related documents are on file and may be inspected and arrangements made for copying at the office indicated above.

AIR QUALITY PLAN APPROVAL AND OPERATING PERMIT APPLICATIONS The 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 general public. This approach allows the owner or operator of a facility to submit permitting documents relevant to its application for all sources related to a facility or a proposed project, affords an opportunity for public input, and provides for a decision on the issuance of the necessary permits.
The Department received applications for Plan Approvals or Operating Permits from the following facilities.
Copies of the application, the Department's analysis, all pertinent documents used in the evaluation of the application and subsequently prepared proposed plan approvals/operating permits are available for public review during normal business hours at the appropriate Department Regional Office. Appointments for scheduling a review must be made by calling the appropriate Department Regional Office. The address and phone number of the Regional Office is listed before the application notices.
Persons wishing to file a written protest or provide comments or additional information, which they believe should be considered prior to the issuance of a permit, may submit the information to the Department's Regional Office. A 30-day comment period from the date of this publication will exist for the submission of comments, protests and information. Each submission must contain the name, address and telephone number of the person submitting the comments, identification of the proposed Plan Approval/Operating Permit including the permit number and a concise statement regarding the relevancy of the information or objections to issuance of the permit.
A person wishing to request a hearing may do so during the 30-day comment period. A public hearing may be held, if the Department, in its discretion, decides that a hearing is warranted based on the information received. Persons submitting comments or requesting a hearing will be notified of the decision to hold a hearing by publication in the newspaper, the Pennsylvania Bulletin or by telephone, when the Department determines this type of notification is sufficient. Requests for a public hearing and any relevant information should be directed to the appropriate Department Regional Office.
Permits issued to the owners or operators of sources subject to 25 Pa. Code Chapter 127, Subchapter D or E, or located within a Title V facility or subject to 25 Pa. Code § 129.51(a) or permits issued for sources with limitations on their potential to emit used to avoid otherwise applicable Federal requirements may be submitted to the United States Environmental Protection Agency for review and approval as a revision to the State Implementation Plan.

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.
