APPLICATIONS FOR NATIONAL POLLUTION DISCHARGE ELIMINATION SYSTEM (NPDES) PERMITS AND WATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT (WQM) PERMITS This notice provides information about persons who have applied for a new, amended or renewed NPDES or WQM permit, a permit waiver for certain stormwater discharges or submitted a Notice of Intent (NOI) for coverage under a general permit. The applications concern, but are not limited to, discharges related to industrial, animal or sewage waste, discharges to groundwater, discharges associated with municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4), stormwater associated with construction activities or concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs). This notice is provided in accordance with 25 Pa. Code Chapters 91 and 92 and 40 CFR Part 122, implementing The Clean Streams Law (35 P. S. §§ 691.1--691.1001) and the Federal Clean Water Act.
Location Permit Authority Application Type or Category Section I NPDES Renewals Section II NPDES New or amendment Section III WQM Industrial, sewage or animal waste; discharge into groundwater Section IV NPDES MS4 individual permit Section V NPDES MS4 permit waiver Section VI NPDES Individual permit stormwater construction Section VII NPDES NOI for coverage under NPDES general permits For NPDES renewal applications 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 applications for new NPDES permits and renewal applications with major changes in Section II, as well as applications for MS4 individual permits and individual stormwater construction permits in Sections IV and VI, the Department, based upon preliminary reviews, has made a tentative determination of proposed effluent limitations and other terms and conditions for the permit applications. 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 proposed NPDES permit actions under the waiver provision in 40 CFR 123.24(d).
Persons wishing to comment on an NPDES application are invited to submit a statement to the regional office noted before an application within 30 days from the date of this public notice. Persons wishing to comment on a WQM permit application are invited to submit a statement to the regional office noted before the application within 15 days from the date of this public notice. Comments received within the respective comment periods will be considered in the final determinations regarding the applications. 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.
The Department will also accept requests for a public hearing on applications. A public hearing may be held if the responsible office considers the public response significant. If a hearing is scheduled, a notice of the hearing will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin and a newspaper of general circulation within the relevant geographical area. The Department will postpone its final determination until after a public hearing is held.
Persons with a disability who require an auxiliary aid, service, including TDD users, or other accommodations to seek additional information should contact the Department through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.

Description of Proposed Activity: The facility manufactures concrete products and conducts mixing operations for ready-mix cement products. There are three outfalls associated with this facility. Outfalls S01 and S02 discharge stormwater runoff from the manufacturing operations areas to an unnamed tributary to Mill Creek and Outfall S03 discharges stormwater from the office and front parking lot area to the municipal separate storm sewer, which ultimately discharges to Skippack Creek.
The receiving stream, Mill Creek, is in the State Water Plan watershed 3E (Perkiomen) and classified for TSF, aquatic life, water supply and recreation. The nearest downstream public water supply intake for the Philadelphia Suburban Water Company is on the Perkiomen Creek, approximately 25 miles below the point of discharge.
The proposed effluent limits for Outfalls S01 and S02 are based on average event stormwater runoff:
Average Average Maximum Instantaneous Parameters Annual (mg/l) Semi-Annual (mg/l) Daily (mg/l) Maximum (mg/l) Total Suspended Solids 50 100 100 Oil and Grease Monitor and Report pH between 6.0 and 9.0 at all times In addition to the effluent limits, the permit contains the following major special conditions: discharge is to a dry swale and shall not create a health hazard or nuisance; Maintain Best Management Practices; and monitor stormwater discharge once per 6 months.
