SPECIAL NOTICES
Public Notice of Revisions to General Permits No. PAG-7, PAG-8 and PAG-9 for Beneficial Use of Sewage Sludge by Land Application. The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) by this notice is revising the General Permits (PAG-7, PAG-8 and PAG-9) for Beneficial Use of Sewage Sludge or Residential Septage by Land Application and related documents. The three general permits were issued by the Department on May 24, 1997 at 27 Pa.B. 2585.
The general permits and related documents are revised to clarify the following:
1. Appendices to the three general permits--Appendices to the three general permits are revised to better explain procedures for calculating the agronomic rate of sewage sludge to be applied to the field.
2. Recordkeeping and Reporting Forms--The Recordkeeping and Reporting forms associated with the three general permits are revised to clarify the frequency for completing and submitting the form.
3. Notification of First Land Application of Sewage Sludge to A Site--The notification form is revised to include the provision that states ''Land application of sewage sludge in watershed designated as exceptional value in Title 25, Chapter 93 is not eligible for coverage under the general permit. Application of sewage sludge to the land in exceptional value watersheds is required to be covered under an individual permit.''
4. Notice of Intent (NOI) Form--The NOI form is revised to identify pathogen alternatives and vector attraction reduction options as they appeared in the general permits.
5. Instructions for completing the NOI Form--The instructions for completing the NOI form are revised (1) to identify where the NOI must be submitted to for facilities located outside this Commonwealth; (2) to clarify the required attachments must be submitted with the NOI; and (3) the number of samples and/or analytical data of samples collected which the applicant must submit with the NOI in demonstrating the quality of sewage sludge seeking coverage under the general permit.
Applicants seeking coverage under the general permit for sewage sludge generated without sufficient analytical data as required, particularly for the coverage of exceptional quality sewage sludge, should consider seeking coverage under the nonexceptional quality sewage sludge general permit (PAG-8) until sufficient data are collected in demonstrating the quality criteria requirements in PAG-7 are met.
6. Sampling Manual for Pollutant Limits, Pathogen and Vector Attraction Reductions In Sewage Sludge--The manual was developed to assist the applicants as well as permit holders understanding the pollutant limits, pathogen and vector attraction reduction requirements. The manual describes detailed procedures that should be followed by applicants and permit holders of the general permits in obtaining representative samples, and insuring the quality and analytical results of samples collected. The manual also describes the purpose of each pathogen alternative and each vector attraction reduction option which can be used at a facility. Other sections in the manual describe specific parameters for which the samples collected should be analyzed and recommended documentation and recordkeeping, in accordance with the specific treatment processes used.
Persons wishing to obtain a copy of the revised general permits and related documents should request them from the appropriate Department regional office or the following Department central office. Persons with a disability may use the AT&T Relay Service by calling 1 (800) 654-5984 (TDD users) or 1 (800) 654-5988 (voice users). The documents will be sent as soon as possible after they are printed and available for distribution.
