Code § 287.661(c), is hereby publishing a summary of an intent to use coal ash as structural fill in order to allow for public comment. Per 25 Pa. Code § 287.1 ''structural fill'' is defined as the ''engineered use of coal ash as a base or foundation for a construction activity that is completed promptly after the placement of the coal ash, including the use of coal ash as a backfill material for retaining walls, foundations, ramps or other structures. The term does not include valley fills or the use of solid waste to fill open pits from coal or noncoal mining.''
Summary
The written notice regarding this project was received on January 9, 2007 by the Department. This project may begin 60 days following this submittal date (March 9, 2007).
User of Coal Ash: Grassie & Sons Excavating, Inc., offices at 105 Grassi Way, Greentown, PA 18426.
Location of Use:
The location of use is a residential property on Dorantown Road, Moscow, PA 18444 in Covington Township, Lackawanna County. The location does not have a physical address but is Property Parcel Number 219.03, Block 2, Lot 701.
Description of Use:
Approximately 7,000 cubic yards of historic coal ash will be used as structural fill for retaining walls. The coal ash, that was used as quarry fill at a quarry at the junction of SR 611 and Hester Street in Portland, PA is historic in nature. The coal ash was sampled and meets the requirements for the beneficial use of coal ash.
The coal ash will be stockpiled on site to be graded and compacted into 2-foot lifts. A soil berm and silt fence will surround the entire site during construction. Surface water will be diverted from the construction area and runoff from the fill area will be minimized and/or collected and managed in accordance with The Clean Stream Law. The project is estimated to take 3 months to complete.
Public Comments:
Any person wishing to comment on this project should submit the comments in writing to The Department of Environmental Protection, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711-0790, William Tomayko, Regional Solid Waste Manager. Comments should include all reasonably available references, factual groundsand supporting materials.

Request for Comment and Notice of Public Meeting for the Proposed Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for the UNT 45603 (''Dixie Run'') Stonycreek River Watershed, located in
Somerset CountyThe Department of Environmental Protection (Department) will hold a public meeting to discuss and accept comments on a proposed TMDL for the UNT 45603 Stonycreek River Watershed, located in Somerset County. The meeting will be held on Wednesday, March 7 beginning at 1 p.m. at the Cambria District Mining Office, in Cambria Township, Cambria County, PA. Individuals who wish to make a presentation should contact Mike Timcik, Cambria District Mining Office at (814) 472-1900 no later than 4 p.m. on Friday, March 2. The Department will consider all comments in developing the final TMDL for the UNT 45603 Stonycreek River Watershed, which will be submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency for approval.
The proposed TMDL for the UNT 45603 Stonycreek River Watershed was established in accordance with the requirements of section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. Segments in the UNT 45603 Stonycreek River Watershed have been identified as impaired on the 1996, 1998 and 2004 Pennsylvania 303(d) list due to depressed pH and/or high concentrations of metals. The listed segment and miles degraded are shown in the following table:

(''Dixie Run'')2.1 The proposed plan provides calculations of the stream's total capacity to accept metals (aluminum, iron and manganese), acidity and pH and to maintain levels below water quality criteria. The applicable water quality criteria are as follows:
Criterion value Total Recoverable/ Parameter (mg/l) Dissolved Aluminum 0.75 Total Recoverable Iron 1.5 30 day average;
Total RecoverableManganese 1.00 Total Recoverable pH 6.0--9.0 NA The primary pollutant source for the watershed is abandoned mine workings. This watershed was extensively mined for coal since the late 1940's. The effects of this mining are still present.
The proposed TMDL was developed using Monte Carlo Simulation to determine long-term average concentrations that each stream segment could accept and still meet water quality criteria 99% of the time. Monte Carlo Simulation allows for the expansion of a data set based on its statistical makeup. Since there was no critical flow condition where criteria were exceeded, the Department used the average flow to express the loading values in the proposed TMDL. The proposed TMDL for the UNT 45603 Stonycreek River Watershed sets allowable loading rates for metals and acidity at specified points in the watershed. Field data collected during 2004 were used to develop the TMDL. The data and all supporting information used to develop the proposed TMDL are available from the Department.
The Department will accept written comments on the proposed TMDL for the UNT 45603 Stonycreek River Watershed. Written comments must be postmarked by March 26 and sent to Mike Timcik, Department, Cambria District Mining Office, 286 Industrial Park Road, Ebensburg, PA 15931, by fax to (814) 472-1898, or by email to mtimcik@state.pa.us.
