The discharges have approximate flows of approximately 25 to 100 gpm. The passive treatment shall consist of an anoxic limestone drain to generate alkalinity, an aerobic pond for the oxidation, precipitation and settling of iron, and a limestone basin for removal of high manganese concentrations. The project intends to reduce abandoned mine drainage pollution to the UNT, leading to restoration of water quality sufficient to sustain aquatic life, to decrease the overall abandoned mine drainage impacts to Little Mill Creek, and to provide sufficient alkalinity to the tributary to neutralize additional acidity in Little Mill Creek.

   Little Mill Creek is a perennial stream classified as a HQ-CWF.

SEWAGE FACILITIES ACT PLAN APPROVAL


Plan Approvals Granted under the Pennsylvania Sewage Facilities Act (35 P. S. § 750.5)

   Northeast Region: Water Management Program Manager, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711-0790.

   Plan Location:

Borough or Township Borough or Township Address County
Wright Township 321 South Mountain Boulevard
Mountain Top, PA 18707
Luzerne

   Plan Description:  The approved plan provides for a systematic Corrective Action Plan (CAP) to identify and propose corrective measures to the portions of the Mountaintop Area Joint Sanitary Authority's (MAJSA) wastewater collection system that are tributary to the Walden Park Pump Station. This portion of the wastewater collection and conveyance system appears to be subject to excessive amounts of infiltration/inflow (I/I). The CAP also contains time schedules for the implementation of the activities proposed in the CAP. The CAP is now to be considered an integral part of the Township's Official Sewage Facilities Plan.

   Should conditions be encountered during the implementation of the CAP, which require the alteration of the approved CAP, Wright Township and the MAJSA shall contact the Department of Environmental Protection (Department), in writing, and discuss the need to alter the CAP at the earliest possible time. Any additional wastewater-related improvements, additions, deletions or changes outside of those explicitly described in the CAP must be in compliance with the Department's regulations and be submitted to and approved by the Department in writing.

SEWAGE FACILITIES ACT PLAN DISAPPROVAL


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

   Northeast Region: Water Management Program Manager, 2 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711-0790

   Plan Location:

Borough or Township Borough or Township Address County
Borough of Conyngham P. O. Box 442
Conyngham, PA 18219
Luzerne
Sugarloaf Township P. O. Box 61
Sybertsville, PA 18251
Luzerne

   Plan Description:  The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has reviewed the Official Sewage Facilities Plan Update Revision (Plan) dated September 2008 (received by the Department on September 23, 2008), with additional materials dated January 6, 2009 (received by the Department on January 12, 2009), and July 1, 2009 (received by the Department on July 1, 2009), as prepared by Entech Engineering, Inc. on behalf Conyngham Borough (Borough), Sugarloaf Township (Township) and the Conyngham Borough Authority (Authority).

   During the review of an Official Sewage Facilities Plan Update Revision, the Department must ensure that various, relevant issues are addressed in an adequate and comprehensive manner. The Borough and the Township have failed to properly address all relevant issues. The reasons for the disapproval are described in the Department's letter addressed to the Borough, Township and Authority dated July 10, 2009.

   The Borough, the Township and the Authority have a continuing obligation, under section 5 of the Pennsylvania Sewage Facilities Act and the Regulations promulgated thereunder, to jointly revise the Official Sewage Facilities Plans of the Borough and the Township to address existing and future sewage disposal needs within the planning area outlined in the Plan Update Revision and provide for adequate sewage disposal facilities. The Department requests that the municipalities and the Authority immediately take all actions necessary to jointly revise both municipalities' Official Sewage Facilities Plans.

   Plan Location:

Borough or Township Borough or Township Address County
Newberry Township 1915 Old Trail Road
Etters, PA 17319
York

   Plan Description:  Rick Drawbaugh, DEP Code No. A3-67945-354-2: The plan consists of a five lot single-family residential subdivision on 37.438 acres with total proposed sewage flows of 1,600 gpd to be treated by individual onlot disposal systems. The proposed development is located on Kise Mill Road at its intersection with Popps Ford Road in Newberry Township, York County. The plan was disapproved because Lots 1 and 4 of the subdivision fail to meet the recommended lot size of the preliminary hydrogeologic study required by 25 Pa. Code § 71.62(c). As proposed, the onsite sewage systems for Lots 1 and 4 will pollute the waters of the Commonwealth in violation of The Pennsylvania Clean Streams Law. Such a condition is considered a nuisance and is prohibited.
