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. For the sites identified, 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. 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.
For further information concerning the content of a Notice of Intent to Remediate, contact the environmental cleanup program manager in the Department regional office before which the notice appears. If information concerning this acknowledgment 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.

[Continued from previous Web Page] 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 (35 P. S. §§ 691.1--691.1001); the Coal Refuse Disposal Act (52 P. S. §§ 30.51--30.66); The Bituminous Mine Subsidence and Land Conservation Act (52 P. S. §§ 1406.1--1406.21). Mining activity permits issued in response to such applications will also address the applicable permitting requirements of the following statutes: the Air Pollution Control Act (35 P. S. §§ 4001--4015); the Dam Safety and Encroachments Act (32 P. S. §§ 693.1--693.27); and the Solid Waste Management Act (35 P. S. §§ 6018.101--6018.1003).
The following permit applications to conduct mining activities have been received by the Department of Environmental Protection (Department). A copy of the application is available for inspection at the District Mining Office indicated above each application. Where a 401 Water Quality Certification is needed for any aspect of a particular proposed mining activity, the submittal of the permit application will serve as the request for the certification.
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 any person or any officer or head of any Federal, State or local government agency or authority to the Department at the address of the district mining office indicated above 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--34.
Written comments or objections related to a mining permit application should contain the name, address and telephone number of persons submitting comments or objections; 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.
Requests 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.
Where a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (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 found in Table 2. Discharges from noncoal mines located in some geologic settings (for example, in the 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 below 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 found in Technical Guidance Document 362-0600-001, NPDES Program Implementation--Memorandum of Understanding Concerning Water Quality Management, NPDES Program Implementation and Related Matters. Other specific factors to be considered include public comments and Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs).
Persons wishing to comment on an NPDES permit application should submit a statement to the Department at the address of the district mining office indicated above 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. 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 § 92.61. The request or petition for a public hearing shall be filed within 30 days of this public notice and shall contain the name, address, telephone number and the interest of the party filing the request, and shall 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. In the case where a public hearing is held, the Department will consider comments from the public hearing in the final determination on the NPDES permit application.

This notice is provided in accordance with 25 Pa. Code Chapters 91 and 92 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.

Section VII contains notices for parties who have submitted NOIs for coverage under general NPDES permits. The approval for coverage under general NPDES permits is subject to applicable effluent limitations, monitoring, reporting requirements and other conditions set forth 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 set forth in the respective permit. 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, under section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act (35 P.

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. This paragraph does not, in and of itself, create any right of appeal beyond that permitted by applicable statutes and decision law.
For individuals who wish to challenge an action, 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 free pro bono representation. Call the Secretary to the Board at (717) 787-3483 for more information.

BUREAU OF DEEP MINE SAFETY APPROVAL OF REQUEST FOR VARIANCE The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), Bureau of Deep Mine Safety (BMS) has approved Kimmel's Mining Inc.'s request for a variance from the requirements of section 1402 of the Pennsylvania Anthracite Coal Mine Act (act) at the Williamstown No. 1 Mine. This notification contains a summary of this request and the basis for the Department's approval. A complete copy of the variance request may be obtained from Cathy Dunn by calling (724) 430-4475 or from the BMS web site at www.depweb.state.pa.us/deepminesafety/site/default. asp.
Summary of the Request: Kimmel's Mining, Inc. requests a variance to use electrical face equipment at a potential greater than 650VAC but not exceeding 1,000 VAC nominal voltage at the Williamstown No. 1 Mine.
The basis for the Bureau's approval is a 334 Commission Report dated April 4, 1989, in which the same subject of using electrical face equipment at voltages higher than 650 VAC but not exceeding 1,000 volts nominal was studied and approved. The Commission report required that the trailing cables operating above 650 volts shall be constructed with a grounded metallic shielding surrounding each individual phase conductor.
Continued authorization for operation under the approval is contingent upon compliance with the measures described in your enclosed plan and the following conditions.
1. Shielded cables supplying power for face equipment operating at voltages greater than 650 volts and not exceeding 1,000 volts A.C. will not be considered as high voltage cables under any section of the Act. As required in bituminous mines, the following is understood: a) splices and repairs of these trailing cables shall be performed by a person who has been trained and who demonstrated his ability to perform such work to the mine electrician; b) before any electrical work is performed on the machine, accessory equipment or trailing cable shall be de-energized, the trailing cable plug shall be disconnected, locked out and tagged at the input end of the trailing cable; and c) an effective method shall be provided to distinguish between cable splices and jacket repairs. This method shall allow a person to readily make this determination at the working section.
2. Item (b) should be clarified to read as follows which is in agreement with the 334 Commission report dated April 4, 1989: b) before any electrical work is performed on the machine, accessory equipment or trailing cable, the circuit breaker supplying power to the trailing cable shall be de-energized. The trailing cable plug shall be disconnected, locked-out and tagged at the input end of the trailing cable.
Request for Comments and Notice of Public Meeting for the Proposed Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) Developed for the Bennett Branch Sinnemahoning Creek Watershed The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) and the Susquehanna River Basin Commission (SRBC) are holding a public meeting on October 16, 2008, at 7 p.m., at the St. Joseph Church Parish Hall, 17735 Bennetts Valley Highway, Force, PA 15841. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss and accept comments on the proposed TMDLs developed for the Bennett Branch Sinnemahoning Creek Watershed. In accordance with the requirements of section 303(d) of The Clean Water Act, the mainstem of the Bennett Branch Sinnemahoning Creek has been identified as impaired due to high levels of metals and low pH as a result of abandoned mine drainage.
The proposed TMDLs set allowable loadings to meet water quality standards at specified points in the Bennett Branch Sinnemahoning Creek for iron, manganese, aluminum and acidity. Loads have been allocated to both point and nonpoint sources. The TMDLs were established using field data collected in 2003 and 2004, as well as data collected from prior water quality surveys performed by other agencies.
The data and all supporting documentation used to develop the proposed TMDLs are available from the Department. The proposed TMDLs and information on the TMDL program can be viewed on the Department's web site at www.dep.state.pa.us/watermanagement_apps/tmdl/. To request a copy of any of the TMDLs, contact Bill Brown, Department of Environmental Protection, Water Quality Assessment and Standards, 400 Market Street, P. O. Box 8467, Harrisburg, PA 17105, (717) 783-2951.
Written comments will be accepted at the previously listed address and must be postmarked no later than 60 days from the date of this bulletin notice. The Department will consider all comments in developing the final TMDL, which will be submitted to Environmental Protection Agency for approval.
