Override Justification
West Lebanon SiteThis permit is issued overriding the objections of the Indiana County Commissioners as stated in their July 24, 1996 letter to the Department along with the objections of local residents expressed in the August 14, 1996 public hearing.
Concerns regarding the potential contamination of groundwater and surface water supplies were taken into consideration during the application review process. All waste processing activities will be conducted under roof and on a concrete pad. As requested by the Indiana County Water Authority, the permittee contracted with an independent consultant to conduct an hydrogeologic study of land application of the processed material to the demonstration plots. The study concluded that land application of the finished processed material will have no detrimental affect on the groundwater and surface water in the area.
The traffic analysis was forwarded to the Department of Transportation for their review and comment. Their review indicated a condition exists at the intersection of Township Road 692 and S. R. 156 which requires corrective action. To address this concern the permittee is required to pave a portion of Township Road 692 at that intersection.
Monitoring concerns were addressed by requiring chemical analyses monitoring of both the incoming sewage sludge and the finished processed material. Acceptance criteria were established and records must be maintained to verify the quality of the material.
Air quality concerns were addressed by requiring an air quality plan approval prior to operation of the facility and dustfall monitoring during operation.
Financial liability was addressed by requiring the permittee to post a $62,771 closure/post closure bond.
Other issues raised have been mitigated or are outside of the purview of regulatory authority.
The Department has determined that the technical issues were adequately addressed by the addendum submission, revisions, justification material and/or permit conditions. All submitted material has been available to the host municipality and county.
