   The State Conservation Commission has taken the following actions on previously received applications for nutrient management plans under the act of July 6, 2005 (Act 38 of 2005, 3 Pa.C.S. §§ 501--522) (hereinafter referred to as Act 38), for agricultural operations that have or anticipate submitting applications for new, amended or renewed NPDES permits, or Notices of Intent for coverage under a general permit, for CAFOs, under 25 Pa. Code Chapter 92. This notice is provided in accordance with 25 Pa. Code Chapter 92 and 40 CFR Part 122, implementing The Clean Streams Law (35 P. S. §§ 691.1--691.1001) and the Federal Clean Water Act.

   Persons aggrieved by any action may appeal under section 517 of Act 38, section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act (35 P. S. § 7514) and 2 Pa.C.S. §§ 501--508 and 701--704 (relating to Administrative Agency Law) to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachael Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, P. O.

   Plan Location:  at 945 Baltimore Pike in Gettysburg Borough, Adams County.

Borough or Township Borough or Township Address County
Cumberland Township 1370 Fairfield Road
Gettysburg, PA 17325
Adams County

   Plan Description:  The approved plan provides for the replacement of an existing 45 unit hotel with a new 70 unit structure and the public sewer connection of an existing restaurant, insurance agency and single-family home. The plan includes the construction of new collection lines and a new pump station and force main tributary to the Gettysburg Municipal Sewage Treatment Plant. The name of the project is Jayjyoti Corporation and the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) code No. is A3-01911-274-3. The Department's review of the sewage facilities update revision has not identified any significant environmental impacts resulting from this proposal. Any required NPDES Permits or WQM Permits must be obtained in the name of the municipality, authority or owner as appropriate.

   Plan Location:  on South Second Street in McSherrystown Borough, Adams County.

Borough or Township Borough or Township Address County
McSherrystown Borough 338 Main Street
McSherrystown, PA 17344
Adams County

   Plan Description:  The approved plan provides for a new subdivision of 13 single-family homes generating an estimated 3,133 gpd tributary to the Hanover Borough Regional Sewage Treatment Plant. The name of the project is the Sheaffer Property and the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) code No. is A3-01803-013-3. The Department's review of the sewage facilities update revision has not identified any significant environmental impacts resulting from this proposal. The project is approved with the following conditions:

   1.  Approval of this project will constitute a depletion of all allocated sewer taps issued under the Department's June 28, 2007, sewer allocation letter to the Borough. The Department will not be able to approve future planning modules for projects tributary to the Hanover Borough Wastewater Treatment Plant until the Department receives and approves the future public sewer need for all contributing municipalities and the Department issues a Water Quality Permit for the construction of the North Side and West Side interceptors.

   2.  The approved project qualifies for a CSL permit exemption in accordance with Act 40. However, this planning approval is given on the condition that all sewerage facilities qualifying for the permit exemption must be designed, constructed and operated in accordance with the technical standards and practices contained in the Department's Sewerage Manual and that the municipality and/or authority accepts full responsibility for continuing operation and maintenance.

   3.  Other Department permits may be required for construction if encroachment to streams or wetlands will result. Information regarding the requirements for those permits or approvals can be obtained from the Department Permitting and Technical Services Section, Water Management Program, Southcentral Regional Office, 909 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, PA 17110.

   4.  We assume that the developers intend to construct the collection system at their own expense and dedicate it to the municipality upon completion for maintenance and operation.

   5.  All connections tributary to the Hanover Regional Sewage Treatment Plant must be in accordance with the Consent Order and Agreement made between the Department and Hanover Borough.

   Plan Location:  on Chapel Road in Conewago Township, Adams County.

Borough or Township Borough or Township Address County
Conewago Township 541 Oxford Avenue
Hanover, PA 17331
Adams County

   Plan Description:  The approved plan provides for the construction of a new pump station, force main and collection system to serve 52 single-family homes. The name of the project is Chapel View Phase 2 and the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) code No. is A3-01910-071-3. The Department's review of the sewage facilities update revision has not identified any significant environmental impacts resulting from this proposal. The project is approved with the following conditions:

   1.  Approval of this project will constitute a depletion of all allocated sewer taps issued under the Department's June 28, 2007, sewer allocation letter to the Borough. The Department will not be able to approve future planning modules for projects tributary to the Hanover Borough Wastewater Treatment Plant until the Department receives and approves the future public sewer need for all contributing municipalities and the Department issues a Water Quality Permit for the construction of the North Side and West Side interceptors.

   2.  The approved project will require a Clean Streams Law (CSL) permit for the construction and operation of the proposed sewerage facilities. The permit application must be submitted in the name of Conewago Township Municipal Authority. Approval of this planning module is only approval of the preliminary concept of the proposed project and does not assure that a permit application will be acted upon favorably by the Department. Issuance of a CSL permit will be based upon a technical evaluation of the permit application and supporting information. Starting construction prior to obtaining a permit is a violation of the CSL.

   3.  This plan approval does not include approval of the system design that will be evaluated and approved as part of the CSL permit application review.

   4.  Other Department permits may be required for construction if encroachment to streams or wetlands will result. Information regarding the requirements for such permits or approvals can be obtained from the Department Permitting and Technical Services Section, Water Management Program, Southcentral Regional Office, 909 Elmerton Avenue, Harrisburg, PA 17110.

   5.  The Department assumes that the developers intend to construct the collection system at their own expense and dedicate it to the municipality upon completion for maintenance and operation.

   6.  All connections tributary to the Hanover Regional Sewage Treatment Plant must be in accordance with the Consent Order and Agreement made between the Department and Hanover Borough.

SEWAGE FACILITIES ACT PLAN DISAPPROVAL


Plan Disapprovals Granted under section 5 of the Pennsylvania Sewage Facilities Act (35 P. S. § 750.5)

The Plan also failed to support the conclusion that increased pumping and inspections of septic tanks could serve to address the confirmed and suspected malfunctions in the subject areas.

LAND RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION

PREAMBLE 2


The following plans and reports were submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101--6026.908).

   Provisions of Chapter 3 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) require the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin a notice of submission of plans and reports. A final report is submitted to document cleanup of a release of a regulated substance at a site to one of the act's remediation standards. A final report provides a description of the site investigation to characterize the nature and extent of contaminants in environmental media, the basis for selecting the environmental media of concern, documentation supporting the selection of residential or nonresidential exposure factors, a description of the remediation performed and summaries of sampling analytical results which demonstrate that remediation has attained the cleanup standard selected. Submission of plans and reports, other than the final report, shall also be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. These include the remedial investigation report, risk assessment report and cleanup plan for a Site-Specific Standard remediation. A remedial investigation report includes conclusions from the site investigation, concentration of regulated substances in environmental media; benefits of refuse of the property and, in some circumstances, a fate and transport analysis. If required, a risk assessment report describes potential adverse effects caused by the presence of regulated substances. If required, a cleanup plan evaluates the abilities of potential remedies to achieve remedy requirements.
