       PA0088595, Amendment No. 1, CAFO, Hostetter Management Company (Wide Awake Farm), P. O. Box 526, Ephrata, PA 17522. Joe Gulick has submitted a permit amendment application for an individual NPDES permit for an expanding CAFO known as Wide Awake Farm, 488 Jay Road, Monroe Township, Bedford County.

       The CAFO is situated near West Branch Sideling Hill Creek in Watershed 13-B (EV). The CAFO will be designed to maintain an animal population of approximately 1,360.6 AEUs consisting of 336 sows with litter, 2,800 gestating sows, 15 boars, 320 nursery pigs and 450 finishing pigs. The animals will be housed in two existing animal husbandry buildings and two proposed animal husbandry buildings and also an existing isolation building. Manure will be collected beneath the slatted floors of the animal husbandry buildings and conveyed by gravity to the one existing and one proposed HDPE-lined manure storage facilities. In addition, the manure from the isolation building is stored beneath the building in a concrete storage pit. The capacity of the manure storage facilities is as follows:  existing HDPE-lined lagoon (3.29 million gallons), existing isolation building pit (0.0308 gallon) and proposed HDPE-lined lagoon (2.3 million gallons). A Water Quality Management Part II application was submitted to the Department for the proposed HDPE-lined lagoon. Prior to operation of the proposed manure storage facilities, the design engineer will be required to submit certification that the facilities were constructed in accordance with appropriate Pennsylvania Technical Guide Standards. A release or discharge to waters of this Commonwealth under normal operating conditions is not expected. Normal operating conditions are defined as conditions below a 25-year, 24-hour storm event.

       The Department has conducted administrative and technical reviews of the application. Based on the preliminary review and application of lawful standards and regulations, the Department has made a tentative determination to issue an NPDES permit for the operation subject to the terms and conditions and monitoring and reporting requirements specified in the permit.

       The permit application and draft permit are on file at the Southcentral Regional Office of the Department. Individuals may make an appointment to review the files by calling the File Review Coordinator at (717) 705-4732.

       Persons wishing to comment on the proposed permit are invited to submit written comments to the previous address within 30 days from the date of this public notice. Comments received within this 30-day period will be considered in formulating the Department's final determination regarding the application. Comments should include the name, address and telephone number of the writer and a concise statement to inform the Department of the basis of the comment and the relevant facts upon which it is based.

       Following the 30-day comment period, the Water Management Program Manager will make a final determination regarding the proposed permit. Notice of this determination will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin at which time the determination may be appealed to the Environmental Hearing Board.

       The EPA permit waiver provision under 40 CFR 123.24(e) does not apply to this NPDES permit.

    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.
