Clean Water and Drinking Water State Revolving Fund Programs Public Hearing on Federal Fiscal Year 2006 and 2007 Project Priority Lists

[35 Pa.B. 5206]

   The Pennsylvania Infrastructure Investment Authority (PENNVEST) and the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) have prepared the Federal Fiscal Year (FY) 2006/2007 Project Priority Lists (PPLs) of drinking water and pollution abatement projects to be considered for a design and engineering or construction loan from funds the Commonwealth expects to receive from moneys approved by Congress to capitalize the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF) and Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) programs.

   The projects to be considered for a loan from the DWSRF and CWSRF programs must meet the Federal requirements for funding in accordance with the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act and Clean Water Act. Accordingly, the projects included on the PPLs are expected to meet the requirements applicable to use of the DWSRF and CWSRF loan funds. Projects listed on this Commonwealth's FY 2006/2007 PPL are expected to proceed with design and engineering or to construction in the near future.

   Federal guidance on development of the PPLs requires that the lists be subject to public review and comment before being submitted to the United States Environmental Protection Agency.

   The Department has scheduled a public hearing for 10 a.m. on November 2, 2005, in the Auditorium, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, Harrisburg, PA. The hearing is scheduled for the purpose of receiving comments from the public regarding the FY 2006/2007 PPLs. Interested persons are invited to express their views on the priority rating or ranking of projects on the PPLs. Persons wishing to offer comments at the public hearing should contact the Infrastructure Grants Administrative Section at the address or telephone number listed as follows or by e-mail at amaisano@state.pa.us by 4 p.m., November 1, 2005. Where written statements are prepared and will be submitted at the hearing, speakers will be asked to restrict the oral portion of the statement to a summary of the written comments.

   It is not necessary to appear at the public hearing to present comments on the list of projects. Interested persons may submit written comments to the Department at the address that follows. Written comments will be considered equivalent to oral statements presented at the hearing. To be considered by the Department and PENNVEST, the written comments must be received by the Infrastructure Grants Administrative Section on or before the date of the hearing.
