[45 Pa.B. 6639]
[Saturday, November 14, 2015]

 The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) has finalized the Nonpoint Source Management Plan—2014 Update (Management Plan), which was published for public comment at 45 Pa.B. 3277 (June 20, 2015). The Management Plan includes a narrative description of significant efforts taking place in this Commonwealth to address nonpoint source pollution and milestones set to demonstrate progress in addressing nonpoint source pollution in this Commonwealth. The Management Plan was developed in a manner consistent with United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidance outlining the required elements of these program updates.

 All states receiving funds under the Section 319 program are required to draft a management plan. The Commonwealth annually receives approximately $4.5 million from the EPA to address nonpoint source pollution issues throughout this Commonwealth. The Department closed the comment period for the Management Plan on July 20, 2015. Two commentators provided a total of ten unique comments. A comment response document was prepared and some minor changes to the Management Plan were made, as necessary.

 The Management Plan is available on the Department's web site at www.dep.state.pa.us (DEP Keywords: NPS Management Plan). The comment response document is also available in the Department's eLibrary at http://www.elibrary.dep.state.pa.us (select ''Publications,'' then ''Conservation and Restoration'').
