NPDES APPLICATIONS

PART I PERMITS

   Under the Federal Clean Water Act and The Clean Streams Law, the following parties have applied for an NPDES permit or to renew their current permit to discharge controlled wastewaters into the waters of this Commonwealth or to conduct other activities required by the NPDES permit. For renewal applications listed in Section I, the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has made a tentative determination to reissue these permits for 5 years subject to effluent limitations and monitoring and reporting requirements in their current permits, with appropriate and necessary updated requirements to reflect new and changed regulations and other requirements. For new permit applications, renewal application with major changes or applications for permits not waived by the EPA, the Department, based upon preliminary reviews, also made a tentative determination of proposed effluent limitations and other terms and conditions for the permit applications listed in Section II. These determinations are published as proposed actions for comments prior to taking final actions.

   Unless indicated otherwise, the EPA Region III Administrator has waived the right to review or object to this proposed permit action under the waiver provision 40 CFR 123.24(d).

   Persons wishing to comment on the proposed permit are invited to submit a statement, to the office noted before the application, within 30 days from the date of this public notice. Comments received within this 30-day comment period will be considered in the formulation of the final determinations regarding this application. The comments should include the name, address and telephone number of the writer and a concise statement to inform the Department of the exact basis of a comment and the relevant facts upon which it is based. A public hearing may be held if the responsible office considers the public response significant. Following the comment period, the Department's Water Management Program Manager will make a final determination regarding these applications. Notice of this final determination will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin at which time this determination may be appealed to the Environmental Hearing Board.

   The renewal application, including proposed effluent limitations and special conditions, is available on file. For new permit applications, information submitted with the applications is available on file.

   PAG123570, CAFO, Wenger's Feed Mill, Inc., 101 West Harrisburg Avenue, Rheems, PA 17570. This proposed facility is located in Rapho Township, Lancaster County.

   Description of Proposed Activity:  The Bridge Valley Farms is an existing egg layer production and egg processing facility with 2,673 AEUs. An estimated quantity of total annual manure production is 11,686 tons. The operation consists of 768,000 layer hens. The facilities consist of seven two-story buildings with the manure being stored beneath the layer cages until it is removed for crop application. All of the 11,686 tons of manure generated on the farm is exported.

   The receiving stream, Chickies Creek, is in the State Water Plan watershed 7-G and is classified for WWF.

   The proposed effluent limits for the operation/activity include: Except for the chronic or catastrophic rainfall events defined as over the 25 year/24 hour rain storms, the CAFO general permit is a nondischarge NPDES permit. Where applicable, compliance with 40 CFR Federal effluent limitation guidelines is required. The general permit requires no other numeric effluent limitations and compliance with Pennsylvania Nutrient Management Act and The Clean Streams Law constitutes compliance with the State narrative water quality standards.

This operation is proposing to continue a steady internal growth but intends to limit that growth to match the capacities of the current housing, milking parlor and manure handling facilities. These include manure solids extractor system, two earthen manure storage ponds and buried irrigation lines that feed hard hose traveling reels and two center pivot irrigation systems. Nutrients are applied to a continuous no-till cropping system of forage grain and corn silage. Application rates have been selected towards phosphorus utilization backed by years of strong data collection. Total acres where nutrients will be applied; 328.5 owned acres and 320.5 rented acres. Total manure equals: 4,568 tons and 19,017,516 gallons.
