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.

Request for Comments and Notices of Public
Meeting for the Proposed Total Maximum Daily
Loads (TMDLs) for the Watershed
of Stoney Run, Westmoreland County

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) will accept comments on the proposed TMDL developed for the watershed of Ross Run in Indiana County. The TMDL was established in accordance with the requirements of section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. Streams within this watershed are listed in Pennsylvania's Integrated Water Quality Monitoring and Assessment Report as being impaired due to siltation resulting from agricultural activities.

   Impairments were addressed by establishing a TMDL of sediment. 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 watershed of Ross Run. Sediment loadings were allocated among all land use categories (nonpoint sources) 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: Joe Boylan at 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222, joboylan@state.pa.us.

   The Department will consider all comments when developing the final TMDL, which will be submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency for approval. Written comments will be accepted at the previous address and must be received by July 12, 2009. A public meeting to discuss the technical merits of the TMDL will be held on Thursday, June 11, 2009, at 6 p.m. at the Marion Center Community Park Building, 22823 Route 403 Highway North, Marion Center, PA 15759.
