E4129-133. Pennsylvania General Energy Co, LLC, 120 Market Street, Warren, PA 16365, Gamble Township and Plunketts Creek Township, Lycoming County. U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Baltimore District. Application received: July 25, 2023. Issued: February 9, 2024.
Original Application E4129-133 (APS # 1009923; AUTH # 1302865) was an Individual—Joint Permit to construct, operate and maintain a permanent surface freshwater withdrawal (SFW) and utility trench/corridor under Loyalsock Creek along State Route 87 in Gamble and Plunketts Creek Township, Lycoming County. Applicant and contractor began construction on August 4, 2022.
Application E4129-133 (APS # 1009923; AUTH # 1448450) is a Major Amendment to the previously referenced Individual—Joint Permit Application to reflect as-built conditions of the Loyalsock/Shawnee Freshwater System project.
The following changes were made to the original permitted design:
1. The pump station vault was changed from circular to square due to constructability and the availability of square precast structures.
2. The pump station and valve vault were pushed back approximately 10-ft for constructability.
3. The intake vault and screens were increased to reduce short term maintenance and reduce the likelihood of fouling/clogging of the intake screen due to the buried installation. The screen diameter was increased to allow for a greater factor of safety with respect to clogging and reduce in-stream maintenance. The installed screen meets PAFBC and SRBC standards for 0.10" opening and provides for significantly reduced intake velocity resulting in reduced entrapment of species and fines.
4. Overall intake location did not change from the proposed location.
5. Only three (3) of the five (5) proposed utility pipelines were installed within the utility corridor across the Loyalsock Creek:
a. Single 16-inch diameter steel natural gas pipeline
b. Single 10-inch diameter HDPE waterline
c. Single 4-inch diameter HDPE communications conduit
6. The overall total permanent stream impacts have decreased from 1,274.1 SF to 957 SF.
The project will result in a total of 380 LF (957 SF) of permanent and 268 LF (20,158 SF) of temporary stream impacts and 397 SF (0.0091 acre) of permanent and 8,729 SF (0.2004 acre) of temporary floodway impacts all for the purpose of constructing an freshwater withdrawal system and utility corridor under Loyalsock Creek to expand freshwater pipeline systems for Marcellus well development. No wetland impacts are proposed.
