A public hearing may be held if the responsible office considers the public response significant.

   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 this determination may be appealed to the Environmental Hearing Board.

   The application and related documents, proposed effluent limitations and special conditions, comments received and other information are on file and may be inspected and arrangements made for copying at the office indicated above the application.

Proposed NPDES Permit Renewal Actions for Minor Sewage Discharges

   The following parties have applied to renew their current NPDES permits to allow the continued discharge of controlled wastewaters into the surface waters of this Commonwealth. The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has made a tentative determination to renew these permits and proposes to issue them, subject to their current permit effluent limitations, and monitoring and reporting requirements, with appropriate and necessary updated requirements to reflect new or changed regulations and other requirements. The updates may include, but will not be limited to, applicable permit conditions and/or requirements addressing combined sewer overflows (CSOs), municipal sewage sludge management and total residual chlorine control (TRC). Major changes to or deviations from the terms of the existing permit will be documented and published with the final Department actions.

   The EPA, Region III, Regional Administrator has waived the right to review or object to these proposed permit actions under the waiver provision 40 CFR 123.6E.

   Persons wishing to comment on the proposed permits are invited to submit a statement to the Field Office indicated as the office responsible, within 30 days from the date of this public notice. Comments received within this 30-day period will be considered in the formulation of the final determinations regarding these applications and proposed permit actions. Comments should include the name, address and telephone number of the writer and a brief statement to inform the Field Office of the basis of the comment and the relevant facts upon which it is based. A public hearing may be held if the Field Office considers the public response significant.

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

   The permit renewal application and related documents, proposed effluent limitations and special conditions, comments received and other information are on the Department's file. The documents may be inspected at, or a copy requested from, the Field Office that has been indicated above the application notice.

Notice of Intent to Establish Alternate Site-Specific Water Quality Criteria for Copper

   Under 25 Pa. Code § 16.24(e), the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) proposes to amend the following permits by incorporating the results of a Water-Effect Ratio (WER) into the calculation of the water quality based effluent limit for copper. The WER is a site-specific determination of an aquatic life criterion, which provides a more appropriate level of protection than the Statewide criteria by taking into account the site-specific biological and/or chemical conditions. The WER is determined by conducting side-by-side toxicity tests on sensitive aquatic species using site or simulated site water and lab dilution water. The site-specific water results are divided by the lab dilution water results to determine the WER. The WER procedure recognizes that the physical and/or chemical characteristics of site water can influence the toxicity of a chemical on resident aquatic life. On June 6, 1997, the POTWs listed as follows submitted a Group WER proposal to modify their NPDES copper limits. Following intensive review of their sampling protocol and study results, the EPA approved the WERs listed as follows.

   Alternate site specific criteria for copper will be developed by multiplying the Statewide fish and aquatic life copper criteria contained in Chapter 6, App. A, Table 1 by the WER for each POTW. The site-specific criteria will be used in the recalculation of the NPDES permit limits for copper. These changes will affect the copper limits of only the listed facilities.
