The CAFO is situated near an unnamed tributary of Clippingers Run in Watershed 7-B, which is classified for WWF. The CAFO is designed to maintain an animal population of approximately 554 AEUs consisting of 4,600 finishing swine. The animals are housed in four swine barns. Manure drains into a two-stage HDPE-lined manure storage facility. The total capacity of the manure storage facilities is 4.11 million gallons for the first stage and 3.79 million gallons for the second stage.
The Department has conducted administrative and technical reviews of the application. Based on the preliminary review and application of lawful standards and regulations, 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 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 the File Review Coordinator at (717) 705-4732.
