FEDERAL WATER POLLUTION CONTROL ACT SECTION 401 The Department has taken the following actions on previously received permit applications, requests for Environmental Assessment approval and requests for Water Quality Certification under section 401 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (FWPCA) (33 U.S.C.A. § 1341).
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 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.

Proposed State Water Quality Certification
Required by Section 401 of the Clean Water Act and General Permit Registration Package for the Supply Header Project Amendment # 2 Southwest Region: Waterways & Wetlands Program, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222, Dana Drake, P.E., 412.442.4149.
WQ05-014-A2, Dominion Energy Transmission, Inc. (DETI) (Applicant), 5000 Dominion Boulevard, Glen Allen, VA 23060. Supply Header Project Second Amendment (Project), in the City of Murrysville and Salem Township, Westmoreland County, Pittsburgh ACOE District. The second project amendment includes changes along the 3.9 mile pipeline route, which starts northwest of Delmont (Slickville, PA Quadrangle; N: 40° 25` 22.66"; W: 79° 35` 32.22") and extends northwest to DETI's existing JB Tonkin Compressor Station (Murrysville, PA Quadrangle; N: 40° 27` 46.96"; W: 79° 38` 25.88").
The previously referenced information relates to a second amendment to the Supply Header Project (Project) which was previously reviewed under DEP File No. WQ05-014, the history of which is detailed as follows:
Initial State Water Quality Certification for Project On September 18, 2015, Applicant filed an application with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) under Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act (15 U.S.C.A. § 717f) seeking a certificate of public convenience and necessity to construct and operate its Project (FERC Docket No. CP15-555-000). The FERC final Environmental Impacts Statement for the Project, which was issued on July 21, 2017, may be viewed on FERC's website at www.ferc.gov (search eLibrary; Advanced Search; Access Number 20170721-3017).
On April 4, 2017, Applicant requested a State water quality certification from the Department of Environmental Protection (Department), as required by Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C.A. § 1341), to ensure that the construction, operation and maintenance of the Project will protect water quality in this Commonwealth through compliance with State water quality standards and associated State law requirements, which are consistent with the requirements of the Clean Water Act.
On November 21, 2017, State water quality certification was granted.
The previously approved Project (DEP File # WQ05-014) was described as follows:
The Project includes approximately 3.9 miles of 30-inch diameter natural gas pipeline loop (TL-636) adjacent to the Applicant's existing LN-25 pipeline (E65-800) in Westmoreland County. The project also includes modifications to the existing JB Tonkin Compressor Station in Westmoreland County and modifications to the existing Crayne Compressor Station in Greene County. The Project will require approximately 81.1 acres of earth disturbance, impacts to 1,143 linear feet of unnamed tributaries to Turtle Creek (TSF), Kemerer Hollow (HQ-CWF) and its unnamed tributaries, Steels Run (HQ-CWF) and its unnamed tributaries, and Haymakers Run (HQ-CWF) and its unnamed tributaries, 0.31 acre of floodway, 0.40 acre of temporary wetland impacts (0.2 acre PEM/0.2 acre PFO), and 0.67 acre of permanent wetland impacts (0.23 acre PFO/0.44 acre PEM).
By order issued October 13, 2017, in Docket No. CP15-555-000 (Order), the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) authorized Dominion Energy Transmission, Inc. to construct and operate its proposed Project subject to conditions specified in the Order. The Project includes the construction of pipeline, compression, and ancillary facilities.
State Water Quality Certification for
First AmendmentFERC issued a notice to proceed for mechanized tree clearing and site grading at the JB Tonkin Compressor Station on February 12, 2018 (FERC Accession Number 20180212-3034). DETI intends to submit a variance to the FERC requesting the additional workspace included in this modification when all permit modification approvals have been received.
On March 29, 2018, Applicant requested a State water quality certification from the Department of Environmental Protection (Department), as required by Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C.A. § 1341), to ensure that the construction, operation and maintenance of the project amendment will protect water quality in this Commonwealth through compliance with State water quality standards and associated State law requirements, which are consistent with the requirements of the Clean Water Act.
On September 26, 2018, State Water Quality Certification was granted for this project amendment. The previously approved Project Amendment (DEP File No. Q05-014-A1) was described as follows:
The Project Amendment included the addition of 2.74 acres of temporary workspace north of the existing JB Tonkin compressor Station in Murrysville Borough, Westmoreland County, (Murrysville, PA Quadrangle; N: 40° 27` 51.13"; W: 79° 38` 26.47"). The area has been surveyed for wetlands and waterbodies and no features were identified. Therefore, no additional direct stream or wetland impacts are proposed. UNT to Haymakers Run (HQ-CWF) is adjacent to the site but will not be impacted by the additional temporary workspace as long as all required Erosion and Sedimentation controls are properly implemented.
Current Request for Multiple Authorizations for Second Project Amendment On November 1, 2018, Applicant requested a State water quality certification from the Department of Environmental Protection (Department), as required by Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C.A. § 1341), to ensure that the construction, operation and maintenance of this Second Project Amendment will protect water quality in this Commonwealth through compliance with State water quality standards and associated State law requirements, which are consistent with the requirements of the Clean Water Act.
In addition, the Applicant submitted a General Permit Registration Package, seeking acknowledgement from the Department, of the Applicant's use of General Permits No. 5, 7 and 8 [GP056505218-001, GP076505218-001, GP086505218-001], to construct and maintain several utility line stream crossings, minor road crossings and temporary road crossings, respectively, in accordance with the Departments Chapter 105 rules and regulations.
On March 21, 2019, the Department received an application for an ESCGP-3 Permit [File No. ESG 00 129 17 0001 (1)], after it was deemed to be complete by the Westmoreland Conservation District.
The Second Project Amendment, as proposed, includes a new access road, pipeline center line adjustments, and adjusted construction workspace in various locations. These proposed changes will result in the following adjustments to the project's overall, cumulative impacts: 0.66 acre of permanent wetland impacts (net decrease of 0.01 acre), including conversion impacts to 0.16 acre of PFO wetland (net decrease of 0.07 acre), 0.43 acre of temporary wetland impacts (net increase of 0.03 acre), 889 linear feet (lf) of permanent impacts to watercourses from pipeline utility line crossings (net decrease of 34 lf), 1,648 lf of temporary impacts to watercourses from pipeline utility line crossings (net decrease of 78 lf), and 220 linear feet (lf) of permanent impacts to watercourses from access road crossings (net decrease of 18 lf).
The Department is proposing to issue a State water quality certification to Applicant for the Project that will require compliance with the following State water quality permitting programs, criteria and conditions established pursuant to State law to ensure the Project does not violate applicable State water quality standards set forth in 25 Pa.
