E08-474. Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, Engineering District 3-0, PO Box 218 Montoursville, PA 17754-0218. S.R. 1029, Section 002, Segment 0190, Offset 0000, Bridge Replacement Project. Sheshequin Township, Bradford County, ACOE Baltimore District (Litchfield, PA Quadrangle N: 41°53`26"; W: 76°24`57").

 PA DOT Engineering District 3-0 proposes to remove the existing single-span steel I-beam bridge with reinforced concrete abutments and wing walls. The existing structure has a total clear span from abutment face to abutment face of 38.5` with a normal clear span of 21.2`. The structure is on approximately a 35° skew to the roadway baseline. The stream alignment with the structure is poor. To construct and maintain a 22.0` normal span precast concrete box culvert with an 11.0` clear height depressed 1` resulting in a minimum under clear of 10.0` and askew of 45° carrying S.R. 1029 over Bullard Creek. The total estimated stream disturbance is approximately 115` linearly of permanent stream impact and an additional 25` linearly of temporary stream impact. There will be approximately 347 ft2 (0.01 acres) of permanent wetland impacts and 1541 ft2 (0.04 acres) of temporary wetland impacts. Bullard Creek is classified as Cold Water Fishery by Title 25, Chapter 93 Water Quality Standards. The project will not require mitigation.

E17-468. Paris Companies, Inc., P. O. Box 1043, DuBois, PA 15801. Parking Area Expansion, City of DuBois, Clearfield County, ACOE Pittsburgh District (Luthersburg, PA Quadrangle: Latitude 41°07`12.58", Longitude: 78°44`47.02").

 The applicant proposes to expand their Tom Mix Drive parking lot to the west to accommodate one additional double row of employee parking spaces by placing and maintaining fill in a wetland within the Sandy Lick Creek watershed (trout stocked, cold water fishery). As proposed, the project shall include, but not be limited to permanently filling 0.18 acre of palustrine emergent wetland (PEM) that abuts the existing parking area and extends west into the neighboring property's parcel. Paris expects the new parking spaces will be required for the increased workforce following the company's expansion. The project will also enlarge the retention basin to accommodate additional stormwater generated from the new impervious areas. The proposed mitigation for this impact is either deducting from the City of DuBois' wetland bank or purchasing credits from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection's wetland fund.

PUBLIC WATER SUPPLY PERMITS

 The Department has taken the following actions on applications received under the Pennsylvania Safe Drinking Water Act (35 P. S. §§ 721.1—721.17) for the construction, substantial modification or operation of a public water system.

 Persons aggrieved by an action may appeal that action to the Environmental Hearing Board (Board) under section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act and 2 Pa.C.S. §§ 501—508 and 701—704. The appeal should be sent to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, PO Box 8457, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8457, (717) 787-3483. TDD users may contact the Board through the Pennsylvania Relay Service, (800) 654-5984. Appeals must be filed with the Board within 30 days of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin unless the appropriate statute provides a different time period. Copies of the appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure may be obtained from the Board. 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 show this document 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.
