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.

BUREAU OF DEEP MINE SAFETY
APPROVAL OF REQUEST FOR VARIANCE The Department of Environmental Protection (Department), Bureau of Deep Mine Safety (BMS) has approved Kimmel's Mining Inc.'s request for a variance from the requirements of section 1402 of the Pennsylvania Anthracite Coal Mine Act (act) at the Williamstown No. 1 Mine. This notification contains a summary of this request and the basis for the Department's approval. A complete copy of the variance request may be obtained from Cathy Dunn by calling (724) 430-4475 or from the BMS web site at www.depweb.state.pa.us/deepminesafety/site/default. asp.
Summary of the Request: Kimmel's Mining, Inc. requests a variance to use electrical face equipment at a potential greater than 650VAC but not exceeding 1,000 VAC nominal voltage at the Williamstown No. 1 Mine.
The basis for the Bureau's approval is a 334 Commission Report dated April 4, 1989, in which the same subject of using electrical face equipment at voltages higher than 650 VAC but not exceeding 1,000 volts nominal was studied and approved. The Commission report required that the trailing cables operating above 650 volts shall be constructed with a grounded metallic shielding surrounding each individual phase conductor.
Continued authorization for operation under the approval is contingent upon compliance with the measures described in your enclosed plan and the following conditions.
1. Shielded cables supplying power for face equipment operating at voltages greater than 650 volts and not exceeding 1,000 volts A.C. will not be considered as high voltage cables under any section of the Act. As required in bituminous mines, the following is understood: a) splices and repairs of these trailing cables shall be performed by a person who has been trained and who demonstrated his ability to perform such work to the mine electrician; b) before any electrical work is performed on the machine, accessory equipment or trailing cable shall be de-energized, the trailing cable plug shall be disconnected, locked out and tagged at the input end of the trailing cable; and c) an effective method shall be provided to distinguish between cable splices and jacket repairs. This method shall allow a person to readily make this determination at the working section.
2. Item (b) should be clarified to read as follows which is in agreement with the 334 Commission report dated April 4, 1989: b) before any electrical work is performed on the machine, accessory equipment or trailing cable, the circuit breaker supplying power to the trailing cable shall be de-energized. The trailing cable plug shall be disconnected, locked-out and tagged at the input end of the trailing cable.
Request for Comments and Notice of Public Meeting for the Proposed Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) Developed for the Bennett Branch Sinnemahoning Creek Watershed The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) and the Susquehanna River Basin Commission (SRBC) are holding a public meeting on October 16, 2008, at 7 p.m., at the St. Joseph Church Parish Hall, 17735 Bennetts Valley Highway, Force, PA 15841. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss and accept comments on the proposed TMDLs developed for the Bennett Branch Sinnemahoning Creek Watershed. In accordance with the requirements of section 303(d) of The Clean Water Act, the mainstem of the Bennett Branch Sinnemahoning Creek has been identified as impaired due to high levels of metals and low pH as a result of abandoned mine drainage.
The proposed TMDLs set allowable loadings to meet water quality standards at specified points in the Bennett Branch Sinnemahoning Creek for iron, manganese, aluminum and acidity. Loads have been allocated to both point and nonpoint sources. The TMDLs were established using field data collected in 2003 and 2004, as well as data collected from prior water quality surveys performed by other agencies.
The data and all supporting documentation used to develop the proposed TMDLs are available from the Department. The proposed TMDLs and information on the TMDL program can be viewed on the Department's web site at www.dep.state.pa.us/watermanagement_apps/tmdl/. To request a copy of any of the TMDLs, contact Bill Brown, Department of Environmental Protection, Water Quality Assessment and Standards, 400 Market Street, P. O. Box 8467, Harrisburg, PA 17105, (717) 783-2951.
Written comments will be accepted at the previously listed address and must be postmarked no later than 60 days from the date of this bulletin notice. The Department will consider all comments in developing the final TMDL, which will be submitted to Environmental Protection Agency for approval.
