Northeast Region: Water Management Program Manager, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711-0790.
Plan Location:
Borough or Borough or Township Township Address County Borough of Middleport 22 St. Clair Street

Blythe Township P. O. Box 91
Cumbola, PA 17930
Schuylkill Township P. O. Box 405
Mary-D, PA 17952
Plan Description: This plan approval is contingent upon the Schuylkill Valley Sewer Authority (Authority) and/or its member municipalities complying with any requirements that may be imposed by the Historical and Museum Commission and the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, regarding the protection of historic and archaeological resources and plant and animal species, respectively. This review has also not identified any significant environmental impacts resulting from this proposal.
The Plan calls for the construction of a new 0.550 MGD sequencing batch reactor wastewater treatment facility to serve the following areas: Villages of Brockton, Mary-D and Tuscarora located in Schuylkill Township, Boroughs of Middleport and New Philadelphia and the Villages of Kaska, Silver Creek and Cumbola located in Blythe Township. The treatment facility will be located near the Village of Cumbola and discharge treated wastewater to the Schuylkill River. The selected wastewater disposal alternative is described in the Plan as the ''One-Plant Alternative.'' Implementation of the selected alternative and operation of the proposed facilities will be performed by the Authority.
The Plan's selected wastewater disposal alternative also calls for the installation of new wastewater collection and conveyance systems in the Villages of Mary-D, Brockton, Kaska, Silver Creek and Cumbola and within the Boroughs of Middleport and New Philadelphia. The Village of Tuscarora will continue to utilize its existing sanitary wastewater collection system lines. All of these areas will discharge their wastewater to the proposed Cumbola Wastewater Treatment Facility via the proposed interceptor system. All discharge of sanitary wastewater into the existing ''wildcat'' wastewater collection systems will be discontinued upon final completion of the Plan's selected alternative. Due to this situation, the Plan proposes the construction of additional, new stormwater collection systems in the Village of Brockton and in the Boroughs of Middleport and New Philadelphia. These proposed systems will permit the routing of stormwater to appropriate surface watercourses that had previously been transported by the existing ''wildcat'' wastewater collection systems.
The Plan's selected wastewater disposal alternative also calls for all portions of the planning area that are not proposed to be served by centralized wastewater collection, conveyance and treatment systems in the Plan, to continue to use onlot wastewater disposal systems as their approved method of wastewater disposal. These areas will also be governed by the requirements of the Sewage Management Program as proposed in Appendix D of the Plan. Each of the four municipalities have also additionally enacted privy and holding tank ordinances to govern the use of these types of facilities within their municipal borders.
Financing of the proposed wastewater collection, conveyance and treatment systems is to be provided by the Pennsylvania Infrastructure Investment Authority.
Implementation of the selected wastewater disposal alternative will require an NPDES Permit for the treated wastewater effluent discharge at the Authority's proposed wastewater treatment facility. The proposed project will also require a Water Management Part II Permit for the construction and operation of the proposed sewage facilities. Both of these permit applications must be submitted in the name of the Authority. Starting construction prior to obtaining a Part II Permit is a violation of The Clean Streams Law.

Borough or Borough or Township Township Address County Borough of Coaldale P. O. Box 116
Coaldale, PA 18218
Schuylkill Plan Description: The approved plan proposes a systematic plan to identify and propose corrective measures for portions of the Borough's wastewater collection system that may be subject to excessive amounts of infiltration/inflow. The Corrective Action Plan (CAP) also contains time schedules for the implementation of the activities proposed in the CAP. The CAP is now to be considered an integral part of the municipality's Official Sewage Facilities Plan.
Should conditions be encountered during the implementation of the CAP, which require the alteration of the approved CAP, the Borough of Coaldale shall contact the Department, in writing and discuss the need to alter the CAP at the earliest possible time. Additional wastewater-related improvements, additions, deletions or changes outside of those explicitly described in the CAP must be in compliance with the Department's regulations and be submitted to and approved by the Department in writing.

Bedford Plan Description: The approved plan provides for the construction of a gravity sanitary collection and conveyance system to serve Belden, Blattenburg/Camp Hughes, Camp Sunshine, Cara Heights, Sunnybrook/Hafer, Wolfsburg and Sunrise Terrace as the Plan defines these areas. The sewage flow will be conveyed to Municipal Authority of Bedford Borough treatment facility. The Plan provides for the construction of separate community wastewater treatment facilities for Imlertown and Yount. These facilities will discharge (respectively) to Imlertown Run and Dunning Creek. The Plan also provides for the adoption and implementation of an onlot sewage disposal system management ordinance. The Department's review of the sewage facilities update revision has not identified any significant environmental impacts resulting from this proposal. Required NPDES Permits or WQM Permits must be obtained in the name of the municipality or authority as appropriate.

Borough or Borough or Township Township Address County Muncy Creek Township 575 Route 422 Highway

Lycoming Plan Description: The approved plan provides for dividing the study area into two districts separated by Muncy Creek. The effluent from these areas will be collected and conveyed to Muncy Borough and Hughesville-Wolf Township Sewage Treatment Plants. Approximately 387 EDUs on the west side and 309 EDUs on the east side of the creek will be provided with new gravity and where needed, pressure sewer collection. Muncy Borough, Hughesville Borough and Wolf Township have all coadopted this plan and will accept these new flows. The Department's review of the sewage facilities update revision has not identified any significant environmental impacts resulting from this proposal. Required NPDES Permits or WQM Permits must be obtained in the name of the municipality or authority as appropriate.
