General CAFO NPDES Permit

   Southcentral Regional Office:  Regional Water Management Program Manager, 909 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, PA 17110-8200, (717) 705-4707.

   PAG123501. Brubaker Farms, 493 Musser Road, Mount Joy, PA 17552. Brubaker Farms has submitted an application for a general NPDES permit for an existing concentrated animal feeding operation (CAFO) known as Brubaker Farms, located on Musser Road in East Donegal Township, Lancaster County. The CAFO is situated near an unnamed tributary to Donegal Creek, which is classified as a Cold Water Fishery (CWF). The CAFO is designed to maintain an animal population of 1,312 animal equivalent units (AEUs) consisting of 650 dairy cows, 367 heifers, 53 dairy calves, 4 bulls and 48,000 broilers. These animals are located on two contiguous farms.

   No new facilities are proposed as part of this application. Manure generated at the primary dairy and broiler operation is scraped to a collection pit where manure gravity flows to a 1 million gallon reinforced concrete manure storage tank. Manure generated at the secondary dairy operation is pushed into a 244,000-gallon reinforced concrete manure storage tank by means of a push-in ramp. A release or discharge to waters of the 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 including the Final CAFO Strategy, the Department has made a tentative determination to issue a general NPDES permit for the operation subject to the terms and conditions and monitoring and reporting requirements specified in the draft permit.

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

   The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) permit review waiver provision under 40 CFR 123.24(e) applies to this general NPDES permit.

   Persons wishing to comment on the proposed permit are invited to submit written comments to the above 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. All 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.

   PAG123502. Star Rock Farms LLC, 37 Chestnut Grove Road, Conestoga, PA 17516. Star Rock Farms LLC has submitted an application for a general NPDES permit for an existing concentrated animal feeding operation (CAFO), known as Star Rock Farms, located on Chestnut Grove Road in Manor Township, Lancaster County. The CAFO is situated near Fisherman Run, which is classified as a Warm Water Fishery (WWF). The CAFO is designed to maintain an animal population of 2,613.5 animal equivalent units (AEUs) consisting of 435 dairy cows, 100 heifers, 1,850 steers and 600 swine.

   Manure generated by the steers will be collected into a new 2.0 million gallon lined storage lagoon. Manure generated from the heifers and dairy cows is collected and stored in an existing 0.5 million gallon concrete tank. Manure generated from the swine is dry packed and hauled to fields as needed. A release or discharge to waters of the 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 including the Final CAFO Strategy, the Department has made a tentative determination to issue a general NPDES permit for the operation subject to the terms and conditions and monitoring and reporting requirements specified in the draft permit.

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

   The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) permit review waiver provision under 40 CFR 123.24(e) applies to this general NPDES permit.

   Persons wishing to comment on the proposed permit are invited to submit written comments to the above address within 30 days from the date of this public notice.
