Except as otherwise noted, the Department has granted 401 Water Quality Certification certifying that the construction and operation described will comply with 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 that action to the Environmental Hearing Board (Board) under section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act and 2 Pa.C.S. §§ 501—508 and 701—704. The appeal should be sent to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, PO Box 8457, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8457, (717) 787-3483.

Water Quality Certification under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act for the Equitrans, L.P. TP-371 Pipeline Replacement Project On July 10, 2015, Equitrans, L.P. (Equitrans) filed an application with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) pursuant to Sections 7(b) and 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) (15 U.S.C.A. § 717f) seeking authorization to abandon, construct and operate certain facilities as part of the TP-371 Pipeline Replacement Project (Project) in Indiana and Armstrong counties, Pennsylvania (FERC Docket No. CP15-528). The Commission's Notice of Application was issued on July 23, 2015 and may be viewed on the FERC's website at www.ferc.gov (search eLibrary; Docket Search; CP15-528).
To allow for the modernization of the TP-371 pipeline for integrity assessment through the use of in-line inspection, Equitrans is proposing the replacement of approximately 21 miles of 12-inch diameter pipeline with 20-inch diameter pipeline within the existing right-of-way. The replacement pipeline will be offset 10 to 15 feet from the existing pipeline. The existing 12-inch pipeline will be abandoned in place. The new pipeline will utilize portions of the existing right-of-way during construction. Approximately 19.8 miles, or 95 percent of the proposed Project will be collocated with existing ROW. Ancillary facilities proposed as part of the Project include a pig launcher receiver, three cathodic protection ground beds and five mainline valves that will be installed along the proposed pipeline. In addition, seven tie-ins will be transferred over to the new pipeline via pipeline taps to maintain service to customers. The Project will also include the abandon-ment and/or replacement of pigging facilities as well as existing ancillary facilities such as taps and valves. The project will also utilize horizontal directional drilling techniques for 6 locations.
Three new permanent and thirty-four temporary access roads are planned for the Project. One permanent and one temporary access road will partially utilize an existing road, but will also have a segment of new access added. Twenty-seven of the access roads will utilize existing access or paved driveways. The pipeline shall be installed using a typical 100-foot wide limit of disturbance (LOD) for pipeline construction with areas of temporary work space adjacent to the LOD, and a typical 25-foot LOD for the access roads to allow access to the pipeline. The construction ROW will be reduced to a 75-foot-width at streams and wetlands. The permanent ROW width will be 50 feet centered on the pipeline. There is no anticipated permanent increase in impervious area or in stormwater runoff due to the construction of the pipeline.
Pursuant to Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C.A. § 1341), the Department of Environmental Protection (Department), by this notice, proposes to certify that the construction, operation and maintenance of the Project complies with the applicable provisions of the Clean Water Act, through compliance with the following State water quality permitting programs, criteria and conditions established pursuant to Pennsylvania's Clean Stream Law (35 P. S. §§ 691.1—691.1001), which ensure the Project does not violate applicable water quality standards set forth in 25 Pa. Code Chapter 93:
1. Discharge Permit—Applicant shall obtain and comply with a Department NPDES permit for the discharge of water from the hydrostatic testing of the pipeline pursuant to Pennsylvania's Clean Streams Law, and all applicable implementing regulations (25 Pa. Code Chapter 92a).
2.

S. §§ 680.1—680.17), and all applicable implementing regulations (25 Pa. Code Chapter 102).
3. Water Obstruction and Encroachment Permits—Applicant shall obtain and comply with a Department Chapter 105 Water Obstruction and Encroachment Permits for the construction, operation and maintenance of all water obstructions and encroachments associated with the project pursuant to Pennsylvania's Clean Streams Law, Dam Safety and Encroachments Act (32 P. S.§§ 673.1—693.27), and Flood Plain Management Act (32 P. S. §§ 679.101—679.601), and all applicable implementing regulations (25 Pa. Code Chapter 105).
4. Water Quality Monitoring—The Department retains the right to specify additional studies or monitoring to ensure that the receiving water quality is not adversely impacted by any operational and construction process that may be employed by Applicant.
5. Operation—Applicant shall at all times properly operate and maintain all Project facilities and systems of treatment and control (and related appurtenances) which are installed to achieve compliance with the terms and conditions of this Section 401 Water Quality Certification and all required permits. Proper operation and maintenance includes adequate laboratory controls, appropriate quality assurance procedures, and the operation of backup or auxiliary facilities or similar systems installed by Applicant.
6. Inspection—The Project, including all relevant records, are subject to inspection at reasonable hours and intervals by an authorized representative of the Department to determine compliance with this Section 401 Water Quality Certification, including all required State water quality permits and water quality standards. A copy of this certification shall be available for inspection by the Department during such inspections of the Project.
7. Transfer of Projects—If Applicant intends to transfer any legal or equitable interest in the Project which is affected by this Section 401 Water Quality Certification, Equitrans shall serve a copy of this certification upon the prospective transferee of the legal and equitable interest at least thirty (30) days prior to the contemplated transfer and shall simultaneously inform the Department Regional Office of such intent. Notice to the Department shall include a transfer agreement signed by the existing and new owner containing a specific date for transfer of certification responsibility, coverage, and liability between them.
8. Correspondence—All correspondence with and submittals to the Department concerning this Section 401 Water Quality Certification shall be addressed to the Department of Environmental Protection, Southwest Regional Office, Rita A. Coleman, Waterways and Wetlands Program Manager, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222-4745.
9. Reservation of Rights—The Department may suspend or revoke this Section 401 Water Quality Certification if it determines that Applicant has not complied with the terms and conditions of this certification. The Department may require additional measures to achieve compliance with applicable law, subject to Applicant's applicable procedural and substantive rights.
10. Other Laws—Nothing in this Section 401 Water Quality Certification shall be construed to preclude the institution of any legal action or relieve Equitrans from any responsibilities, liabilities, or penalties established pursuant to any applicable federal or state law or regulation.
11. Severability—The provisions of this Section 401 Water Quality Certification are severable and should any provision of this certification be declared invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of the certification shall not be affected thereby.
Prior to issuance of the final Section 401 Water Quality Certification, the Department will consider all relevant and timely comments, suggestions or objections submitted to the Department within 30 days of this notice. Comments should be directed to Rita A. Coleman, Waterways and Wetlands Program Manager at the above address or through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984 (TDD). Comments must be submitted in writing and contain the name, address and telephone number of the person commenting and a concise statement of comments, objections or suggestions on this proposal. No comments submitted by facsimile will be accepted.
