Application No. PA 0088731, Longacre Farm (Mark Wagner), 6397 High Street, East Petersburg, PA 17520.
Mark Wagner has submitted an application for an individual NPDES permit for a proposed concentrated animal feeding operation (CAFO) known as Longacre Farm, located on Path Valley Road in Fannett Township, Franklin County. A public notice appeared in the Pennsylvania Bulletin on September 23, 2000 for this proposed operation. At that time, the applicant sought coverage under Pennsylvania's General NPDES CAFO permit. Since that time, the applicant has elected to pursue an individual NPDES permit.
The CAFO is situated near an unnamed tributary of Dry Run, which is classified for Cold Water Fishes (CWF) and Migratory Fishes (MF). The CAFO will be designed to maintain an animal population of approximately 577 animal equivalent units (AEUs) consisting of 4,400 wean to finish swine. These animals will be housed in two barns. Manure will be collected through slatted floors in reinforced concrete manure storage facilities beneath each bam. The total capacity of the manure storage facilities will be 1.5 million gallons including 2 feet of freeboard. Prior to operation of the manure storage facilities, the design engineer will be required to submit certification that the facilities were properly constructed. Manure will be pumped from the facilities and spread onto neighboring farms through a manure broker agreement. Manure may also be applied to fields rented out by Longacre Farm in accordance with the approved Nutrient Management Plan. 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 an 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 draft permit are on file at the Southcentral Regional Office of the Department. Individuals 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) does not apply to this 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.
Following the 30-day comment period, the Water Management Program Manager will make a final determination regarding the proposed permit. Notice of this determination will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin at which time the determination may be appealed to the Environmental Hearing Board.
