Certification Request Initiated by: Erie Western Pennsylvania Port Authority, Raymond P. Schreckengost, Executive Director 17 West Dobbins Landing Erie, PA 16507-1424.
Date of Initial Pennsylvania Bulletin Notice: June 9, 2000
Project Description: The Erie-Western Pennsylvania Port Authority has requested a State certification under section 401(a) of the Federal Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C.A. § 1341(a)) for the discharge of dredged material from the Bay Harbor Marina basin into the Lake Erie Harbor Confined Disposal Facility (CDF) will comply with the applicable provisions of sections 301--307 of the Federal Clean Water Act.
The Bay Harbor Marina basin sediments were dredged and stockpiled. The Port Authority has analyzed the stockpiled sediments using the Standard Elutriate Test, adapted from the US Army Corps of Engineer's Inland Testing Manual and the document ''Ecological Evaluation of Proposed Discharge of Dredged or Fill Material in Navigable Waters'' so that the sediments may be discharged to the Lake Erie Harbor Confined Disposal Facility.
Based upon the modified sampling and laboratory testing, the Erie-Western Pennsylvania Port Authority indicates that the approximately 1,000 cubic yards of stockpiled basin sediments from the Bay Harbor Marina basin (Erie North, PA N: 1.0 inch; W: 14.3 inches) discharged into the Lake Erie Harbor Confined Disposal Facility (Erie North, PA N: 4.7 inches; W: 10.3 inches) will have a relatively insignificant impact on the water quality of Lake Erie. This 401 Water Quality Certification is only for this single discharge. Any subsequent dredging of permitted Port Authority facilities and use of the CDF will require separate 401 Water Quality Certification.
Location: Lake Erie Harbor Confined Disposal Facility (Erie North, PA N: 4.7 inches; W: 10.3 inches).
Final Action on Request: Certification granted. This is a one-time certification for the previously described project.
