FEDERAL WATER POLLUTION CONTROL ACT SECTION 401

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has taken the following actions on previously received permit applications, requests for Environmental Assessment approval and requests for Water Quality Certification under section 401 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (FWPCA) (33 U.S.C.A. § 1341).

   Except as otherwise noted, the Department has granted 401 Water Quality Certification certifying that the construction and operation described will comply with the applicable provisions of sections 301--303, 306 and 307 of the FWPCA (33 U.S.C.A. §§ 1311--1313, 1316 and 1317) and that the construction will not violate applicable Federal and State water quality standards.

   Persons aggrieved by an action may appeal, under section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act (35 P. S. § 7514) and 2 Pa.C.S. §§ 501--508 and 701--704 (relating to the Administrative Agency Law), to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, P. O. Box 8457, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8457, (717) 787-3483. TDD users should contact the Environmental Hearing Board (Board) through the Pennsylvania Relay Service, (800) 654-5984. Appeals must be filed with the Board within 30 days of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, unless the appropriate statute provides a different time period. Copies of the appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure may be obtained from the Board. The appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure are also available in Braille or on audiotape from the Secretary of the Board at (717) 787-3483. This paragraph does not, in and of itself, create any right of appeal beyond that permitted by applicable statutes and decision law.

   For individuals who wish to challenge an action, appeals must reach the Board within 30 days. A lawyer is not needed to file an appeal with the Board.

   Important legal rights are at stake, however, so individuals should show this notice to a lawyer at once. Persons who cannot afford a lawyer may qualify for free pro bono representation. Call the Secretary to the Board at (717) 787-3483 for more information.


Actions on applications for the following activities filed under the Dam Safety and Encroachments Act (32 P. S. §§ 693.1--693.27), section 302 of the Flood Plain Management Act (32 P. S. § 679.302) and The Clean Streams Law (35 §§ 691.1--691.702) and Notice of Final Action for Certification under section 401 of the FWPCA (33 U.S.C.A. § 1341).

WATER OBSTRUCTIONS AND ENCROACHMENTS

   Northeast Region: Watershed Management Program Manager, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711-0790.

   E40-647. William James, R. R. 1, Box 291, Sutton Creek Road, West Pittston, PA 18640. Exeter Township, Luzerne County, Army Corps of Engineers Baltimore District.

   To maintain fill that was placed in 0.16 acre of PEM/POW wetlands for the purpose of constructing a horse stable/barn. The permittee is required to provide for 0.31 acre of replacement wetlands by participating in the Pennsylvania Wetland Replacement Project. The project is located along the south side of Sutton Creek Road, approximately 2.0 miles west of SR 0092 (Ransom, PA Quadrangle N:  3.0 inches; W:  14.3 inches) (Subbasin 4G).

   Northcentral Region: Water Management Program Manager, 208 West Third Street, Williamsport, PA 17701, (570) 327-3636.

   E14-484. Houtzdale Municipal Authority, 561 Kirk Street, Houtzdale, PA 16651-1209. Moshannon Creek and Henderson Area Water System Improvements Rush Township, Centre County, ACOE Baltimore District (Houtzdale, PA Quadrangle N:  6.92 inches; W:  12.85 inches).

   To construct, operate and maintain a surface water intake, raw water transmission lines and treated drinking water distribution lines to extend and supplement the Houtzdale Municipal Authority's existing public drinking water supplies. Construction of the surface water intake, raw water transmission lines and treated drinking water distribution lines will result in a raw water transmission line crossing Moshannon Creek. All raw water transmission and treated drinking water distribution lines shall be installed beneath streambeds so there will be a minimum of 3 feet of cover between the top of the pipe and the lowest point in the streambed or concrete encased. Trench plugs or clay dikes shall be used at every waterway and wetland crossing to ensure the existing hydrology is not altered. Construction of the surface water intake and monitoring weir shall be conducted during stream low flow and in dry work conditions by dams and pumping or fluming stream flow around work area. Since Moshannon Creek is a wild trout stream, no construction or future repair work of the surface intake and monitoring weir shall be done in or along the stream channel between October 1 and December 31 without the prior written approval of the Fish and Boat Commission. The project is located along eastern right-of-way of SR 0153 approximately 1.2 miles east of Woodward Township (Clearfield County) Road T-650 and SR 0153.

   E53-410. Potter County Conservation District, 107 Market Street, Coudersport, PA 16915, Genesee River Stabilization Project (Perry-Cornell-Slawson Site) in Genesee Township, Potter County, ACOE Pittsburgh District (Ulysses, PA Quadrangle N:  18.5 inches; W:  15.0 inches).

   To restore a reach of the Genesee River by constructing, operating and maintaining a minimum of four rock straight vanes, four root-wads and 175 feet of rock toe protection for the stabilization of 480 feet of eroded stream bank. All in-stream activity and structures shall be constructed in minimum stream flow conditions needed to establish stream centerline, as well as from the stream bank to the fullest extent possible. Since the Genesee River is a stock trout fishery, no construction of future repair work shall done in or along the stream channel between March 1 and June 15 without the prior written approval of the Fish and Boat Commission. The project is located along the eastern right-of-way of SR 0449 approximately 1,200 feet north of Township Road 411 and SR 0449 intersection near the Village of Hickox.

   Southwest Region: Watershed Management Program Manager, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222-4745.
