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.

To perform the following water obstruction and encroachment activities for Mirabile Tract at 573 East Main Street along a tributary of Indian Creek (WWF):
1. To modify and maintain an existing stream enclosure of a UNT of Indian Creek (Tributary 1) by removing 49 linear feet of pipe at the downstream end of the existing structure and to maintain the remaining 54 linear feet of 36-inch corrugated metal pipe (CMP), a rock riprap apron and a restored open channel segment. The existing structure is attached to the Ridge Pike culvert by means of a junction box and consists of 54 linear feet of 36-inch CMP, a manhole and 49 linear feet of 36-inch CMP.
2. To relocate 760 linear feet of a UNT of Indian Creek (Tributary 1) by constructing a channel on a new alignment starting at the terminus of the culvert noted in Item 1 above and extending to a point of confluence with a UNT of Indian Creek (Tributary 2) onsite. Approximately 1,177 linear feet of the former abandoned stream, including two stream enclosures and a bridge will be removed and the channel backfilled.
3. To modify 360 linear feet of UNT from the confluence of the relocated channel noted in Item 2 above. This work includes the removal of a bridge.
4. To construct and maintain a stream enclosure consisting of 335 linear feet of twin 44-inch by 72-inch CMPA along the relocated channel noted in Item 2 above.
5. To construct and maintain a 15-inch RCP outfall along the relocated stream channel located immediately downstream of the stream enclosure noted in Item 4 above.
6. To construct and maintain a road crossing consisting of 30 linear feet of 3.5-foot by 12-foot box culvert across the relocated channel noted in Item 2 above.
The project will result in the net restoration of approximately 800 linear feet of stream. The site is located approximately 1,000 feet southeast of the intersection of Egypt Road and SR 363 (Collegeville, PA, USGS Quadrangle N: 1.5 inches, W: 1.2 inches).
The issuance of this permit also constitutes approval of a Water Quality Certification under Section 401 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (33 U.S.C.A. 1341(a)).
E09-911. WV Holdings, LLC, Meetinghouse Business Center, Suite 120, 120 West Germantown Pike, Plymouth Meeting, PA 19462, Hilltown Township, Bucks County, ACOE Philadelphia District.
To enclose and relocate a UNT to the West Branch Neshaminy Creek (WWF, MF). In the existing condition, the UNT was enclosed in a culvert for a length of 1,442 linear feet within Department of Transportation (Department) right-of-way. This project proposes to extend the enclosed length by 2,766 linear feet upstream of the existing enclosure. Portions of the stream enclosure extension will be within the Department right-of-way. The total proposed length of enclosure will be 4,208 linear feet.
The UNT will also be relocated as part of the proposed stream enclosure. The total length of the proposed stream relocation is 3,212 linear feet. The proposed relocation will route the UNT through a proposed stormwater detention basin (nonjurisdictional dam) and through the Department right-of-way.
This project will impact 0.05-acre of wetlands. These wetlands will be replaced by 0.05-acre of wetlands. A low-flow diversion structure will be installed in the proposed channel to provide hydrology to the replacement wetlands and the downstream watercourse. The higher flows will be directed towards the proposed stormwater detention basin.
This project is associated with the proposed expansion of an existing retail center. The project is located 1,400 feet north of the intersection of Route 309 (County Line Road) and Township Line Road (Telford, PA, Quadrangle N: 7.4 inches, W: 2.0 inches).
The issuance of this permit also constitutes approval of a Water Quality Certification under Section 401 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (33 U.S.C.A. 1341(a)).

SPECIAL NOTICES
Request for Comment and Notice of Public Meeting
Proposed Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL)
for the Wilson Creek Watershed in Tioga CountyNorthcentral Region: Watershed Management Program Manager, 208 West Third Street, Williamsport, PA 17701.
The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) will accept comments on the proposed TMDL developed for the Wilson Creek Watershed in Tioga County. The TMDL was established in accordance with the requirements of section 303(d) of The Clean Water Act. Streams within this watershed were listed in Pennsylvania's 2006 Integrated Water Quality Monitoring and Assessment Report as being impaired due to sedimentation resulting from agricultural activities.
There currently are no State or Federal in-stream numerical water quality criteria for sediment. Therefore, the Department utilized a reference watershed approach to implement the applicable narrative criteria. The proposed TMDL sets allowable loadings of sediment in the Wilson Creek Watershed. Sediment loadings were allocated among all land use categories present in the watershed. Data used in establishing this TMDL were generated using a water quality analysis model designed by the Pennsylvania State University.
The data and all supporting documentation used to develop the proposed TMDL are available from the Department. The proposed TMDL and information on the TMDL program can be viewed on the Department's web site at www.dep.state.pa.us (PA Keyword: TMDL). To request a copy of this TMDL contact: L. Richard Adams, Watershed Management Program Manager, Department of Environmental Protection, 208 West Third Street, Suite 101, Williamsport, PA 17701-6448.
The Department will consider all comments in developing the final TMDL, which will be submitted to EPA for approval. Written comments will be accepted at the previously listed address and must be postmarked by June 11, 2008. A public meeting to discuss the technical merits of the TMDL will be held on May 28, 2008, at 7 p.m. at the DCNR, Bureau of Forestry, District Office No.16, 1 Nessmuk Lane, Wellsboro, PA 16901.
