Treatment will be provided at the existing Upper Middletown STP in accordance with NPDES Permit PA0205931.

   Application for funding of this project is to be submitted to the Pennsylvania Infrastructure Investment Authority (PENNVEST) which administers Pennsylvania's State Revolving Fund. The Department's review of the Sewage Facilities Plan has not identified any significant environmental impact resulting from this proposal.

   Location:  Southwest intersection of Centerport Road and Tower Road in Centre Township, Berks County.

   Project Description:  Approval of a revision to the Official Sewage Plan of Centre Township, Berks County. Project involves a 57 lot residential subdivision on 58.76 acres to generate 57 EDUs or 22,800 gallons per day in sewage flows to be treated by a package sewage treatment plant with a discharge to an intermittent stream tributary to Irish Creek. The point of discharge is located 85 feet east of the Ohlinger Spring. The project name is Jordan Crossing and the DEP Code Number is C3-06926-069-3.

   Branch Township, Schylkill County.

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has completed its review of the April 1996 Version of the Act 537 Official Sewage Facilities Plan (Plan) for Branch Township, Schuylkill County. The Plan was prepared by Alfred Benesch and Company and adopted by Township Resolution No. 6, dated October 26, 1995, and 6A dated December 11, 1995, as amended. The Department's review of the Plan has not identified any significant environmental impacts resulting from the proposal and planning approval is hereby granted for the project.

   The Plan was undertaken to address the environmental problems related to raw sewage discharges from the nonpermitted sewage collection system (wildcat) and malfunctioning onlot sewage disposal systems in study areas such as Lewellyn, West West Terrace, Dodentown, Phoenix Park, New Minersville and Stein's Mill.

   The chosen alternative (Alternative IV) consists of the following work:

   1.  Construction of a sanitary sewage collection system and a 200,000 gallons per day (gpd) extended aeration treatment plant in Lewellyn to serve 599 Equivalent Dwelling Units (EDUs) in Lewellyn, West West Terrace, Dodentown and Phoenix Park. The treated effluent will be discharged into the west branch of Schuylkill River.

   2.  Construction of a sanitary sewage collection system and a 5,000 gpd package treatment plant to serve 19 EDUs in the Stein's Mill study area. The treated effluent will be discharged into Muddy Branch Creek.

   3.  Construction of a sewage collection and conveyance system to serve 54 EDUs in the New Minersville study area. This new sewer will be tied into the Minersville Sewer Authority's existing collection system. The sewage from this area will be treated at the Authority's existing 1 million gallons per day (1 mgd) capacity treatment plant.

   In accordance with the provisions of the Pennsylvania Sewage Facilities Act (35 P. S. §§ 750.1--750.20) (Act 537), and Chapter 71 of the Department's Rules and Regulations, 25 Pa. Code Chapter 71, the Department will hold Branch Township responsible for complete and timely implementation of the chosen alternative.
