E5410-001. Pennsylvania Department of Environ-mental Protection, Bureau of Abandoned Mine Reclamation, 400 Market Street, 13th Floor, P.O. Box 69205, Harrisburg, PA 17106-9205. New Gilberton Pump Station Project, in Gilberton Borough, Schuylkill County, (Shenandoah, PA Quadrangle Latitude: 40.799876, Longitude: -76.208350). The Department proposes to install a new pump station with appurtenances and more specifically: (1) construction of pumping equipment, controls and appurtenances on a concrete slab foundation within the flood fringe of the 100-year floodplain of Mahanoy Creek, (2) site work associated with project includes erosion and sediment control measures, grading, borehole drilling and connection to utilities, and (3) permanent operation and maintenance of pumping equipment and appurtenances by the Department. The project proposes to directly affect a total of approximately 0.01 acre of flood fringe within the 100-year floodplain and received previous authorization by the Department for the work under Emergency Permit EP5410-001 issued on September 21, 2016.

EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL

 The following Erosion and Sediment Control permits have been issued.

 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. TDD users may contact the Board through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service, (800) 654-5984. Appeals must be filed with the Board within 30 days of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin unless the appropriate statute provides a different time period. Copies of the appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure may be obtained from the Board. The appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure are also available in Braille or on audiotape from the Secretary to the Board at (717) 787-3483. This paragraph does not, in and of itself, create a right of appeal beyond that permitted by applicable statutes and decisional law.

 For individuals who wish to challenge an action, the appeal must reach the Board within 30 days. A lawyer is not needed to file an appeal with the Board.

 Important legal rights are at stake, however, so individuals should show this notice to a lawyer at once. Persons who cannot afford a lawyer may qualify for free pro bono representation. Call the Secretary to the Board at (717) 787-3483 for more information.
