The applications concern, but are not limited to, discharges regarding industrial, animal or sewage waste, discharges to groundwater, discharges associated with municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4), stormwater associated with construction activities or concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFO). This notice is provided in accordance with 25 Pa. Code Chapters 91 and 92a and 40 CFR Part 122, implementing The Clean Streams Law (35 P. S. §§ 691.1—691.1001) and the Federal Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C.A. §§ 1251—1376).
Location Permit Authority Application Type or Category Section I NPDES Renewals Section II NPDES New or Amendment Section III WQM Industrial, Sewage or Animal Waste; Discharge into Groundwater Section IV NPDES MS4 Individual Permit Section V NPDES MS4 Permit Waiver Section VI NPDES Individual Permit Stormwater Construction Section VII NPDES NOI for Coverage under NPDES General Permits For NPDES renewal applications in Section I, the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has made a tentative determination to reissue these permits for 5 years subject to effluent limitations and monitoring and reporting requirements in their current permits, with appropriate and necessary updated requirements to reflect new and changed regulations and other requirements.
For applications for new NPDES permits and renewal applications with major changes in Section II, as well as applications for MS4 Individual Permits and Individual Stormwater Construction Permits in Sections IV and VI, the Department, based upon preliminary reviews, has made tentative determinations of proposed effluent limitations and other terms and conditions for the permit applications. These determinations are published as proposed actions for comments prior to taking final actions.
Unless indicated otherwise, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region III Administrator has waived the right to review or object to proposed NPDES permit actions under the waiver provision in 40 CFR 123.24(d).
Persons wishing to comment on NPDES applications are invited to submit statements to the contact office noted before the application within 30 days from the date of this public notice. Persons wishing to comment on WQM permit applications are invited to submit statements to the office noted before the application within 15 days from the date of this public notice. Comments received within the respective comment periods will be considered in the final determinations regarding the applications. A comment submittal should include the name, address and telephone number of the writer and a concise statement to inform the Department of the exact basis of a comment and the relevant facts upon which it is based.
The Department will also accept requests for public hearings on applications. A public hearing may be held if the responsible office considers the public response significant. If a hearing is scheduled, a notice of the hearing will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin and a newspaper of general circulation within the relevant geographical area. The Department will postpone its final determination until after a public hearing is held.

Description of Proposed Activity: The Showers Farm CAFO is an existing beef cattle and horse operation adding a finishing swine operation, totaling 384.44 AEUs. The farm consists of 139 acres which includes approximately 23 acres of pasture land, approximately 87 acres of cropland and the balance in farmstead and woods. The hogs will produce 900,000 gallons of liquid manure per year. All hog manure will be collected in an 809,000 gallon underbarn storage. Beef cattle and horse manure is collected during part of the year as a solid. All manure is land-applied in accordance with the farm's Nutrient Management Plan during the Spring, Summer and Fall. Up to 625,000 gallons of manure may be exported offsite.
The receiving stream, UNT of White Deer Creek, is in the State Water Plan watershed 10C (White Deer Creek) and is classified for: HQ-CWF.
The proposed effluent limits for the operation/activity include: Except for the chronic or catastrophic rainfall events defined as over the 25-year/24-hour rain storms, the CAFO permit is a non-discharge NPDES permit. Where applicable, compliance with 40 CFR federal effluent limitation guidelines is required. The permit requires no other numeric effluent limitations and compliance with the Pennsylvania Nutrient Management Act and the Clean Stream Law constitutes compliance with the state narrative water quality standards.
In addition to the effluent limits, the permit contains the following major special conditions.
1. Compliance with the farm's Nutrient Management Plan
2. Compliance with the farm's Preparedness, Prevention and Contingency Plan
3. Compliance with the Farm's Erosion & Sedimentation Control Plan for plowing and tilling
4. Erosion & Sedimentation Control Plan requirements for stormwater during construction activities
5. Animal mortality handling and disposing requirements

10. Freeboard—(Correction) The permittee shall maintain a minimum of 6 inches of freeboard at the liquid manure storage structures at all times. This minimum of 6 inches of freeboard is corrected from the 2 feet of freeboard previously stated in the Pennsylvania Bulletin application notice published on 10/22/2011.
11. Manure Exportation Report—If the permittee exports manure, then the permittee shall complete the Manure Exportation Report form and submitted it to the Department with the CAFO Quarterly Self-Inspection Report.
12. Winter Spreading—The permittee shall not spread manure during the Winter, as defined in 25 Pa. Code § 83.201, unless otherwise authorized in the permittee's Nutrient Management Plan, or unless the permittee has fully complied with 25 Pa. Code § 83.372, and has obtained a plan amendment due to unforeseen circumstances.

PREAMBLE 1
Acknowledgment of Notices of Intent to Remediate Submitted under the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (35 P. S. §§ 6026.101—6026.907)
Sections 302—305 of the Land Recycling and Environmental Remediation Standards Act (act) (35 P. S. §§ 6026.302—6026.305) require the Department to publish in the Pennsylvania Bulletin an acknowledgment noting receipt of Notices of Intent to Remediate. An acknowledgment of the receipt of a Notice of Intent to Remediate is used to identify a site where a person proposes to, or has been required to, respond to a release of a regulated substance at a site. A person intending to use the background standard, Statewide health standard, the site-specific standard or intend to remediate a site as a special industrial area shall file a Notice of Intent to Remediate with the Department. A Notice of Intent to Remediate filed with the Department provides a brief description of the location of the site, a list of known or suspected contaminants at the site, the proposed remediation measures for the site and a description of the intended future use of the site. A person who demonstrates attainment of one or a combination of cleanup standards or receives approval of a special industrial area remediation identified under the act will be relieved of further liability for the remediation of the site for contamination identified in reports submitted to and approved by the Department. Furthermore, the person shall not be subject to citizen suits or other contribution actions brought by responsible persons not participating in the remediation.
Under sections 304(n)(1)(ii) and 305(c)(2) of the act, there is a 30-day public and municipal comment period for sites proposed for remediation using a site-specific standard, in whole or in part, and for sites remediated as a special industrial area. This period begins when a summary of the Notice of Intent to Remediate is published in a newspaper of general circulation in the area of the site. For the following site, proposed for remediation to a site-specific standard or as a special industrial area, the municipality, within which the site is located, may request to be involved in the development of the remediation and reuse plans for the site if the request is made within 30 days of the date specified as follows. During this comment period, the municipality may request that the person identified as the remediator of the site develop and implement a public involvement plan. Requests to be involved and comments should be directed to the remediator of the site.
For further information concerning the content of a Notice of Intent to Remediate, contact the environmental cleanup program manager in the Department regional office listed before the notice. If information concerning this acknowledgment is required in an alternative form, contact the community relations coordinator at the appropriate regional office. TDD users may telephone the Department through the AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984.
