Drinking Water State Revolving Fund Projects; Federal FY 2004 and 2005 Project Priority List and FY 2004 Intended Use Plan

[34 Pa.B. 659]

   The Pennsylvania Infrastructure Investment Authority (PENNVEST) and the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) have received approval from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) of the combined Federal fiscal year (FY) 2004 and 2005 drinking water program Project Priority List (PPL) and the FY 2004 Intended Use Plan (IUP). The IUP includes a list of drinking water projects to be considered for a design and engineering or construction loan from funds the Commonwealth expects to receive from FY 2004 funds approved by Congress to capitalize the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF) program.

   The FY 2004/2005 DWSRF PPL was developed in conformance with the requirements of the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act Amendments of 1996 (act) and Federal guidance. The act stipulates that states must maintain a PPL of drinking water projects from which to develop the annual IUP list of projects to be funded.

   The projects to be considered for a loan from the DWSRF must meet the Federal requirements for funding in accordance with section 1452 of the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act. Accordingly, the projects included in the IUP are expected to meet the requirements applicable to use of the DWSRF loan funds. Projects listed in the FY 2004 IUP are on the Commonwealth's FY 2004/2005 PPL and are expected to proceed with design and engineering or to construction in the near future. Other projects on the DWSRF PPL are projects that are in development or will be developed for future loan consideration. A project removed from an IUP is maintained on the PPL, unless otherwise completed.

   A public hearing was held on October 22, 2003, for the purpose of receiving comments from the public regarding the FY 2004/2005 PPL and the FY 2004 IUP. Notice of this hearing was published at 33 Pa.B. 4514 (September 6, 2003). Interested persons were invited to express their views on the narrative portion of the IUP, the set-aside work plan and the priority rating or ranking of projects on the IUP and the PPL at the public hearing. No comments were received.

   The FY 2004/2005 DWSRF PPL and FY 2004 DWSRF IUP list of projects, as well as the narrative portion of the IUP and set-aside work plan, are available for public review in the following offices and are accessible through the Department's website: www.dep.state.pa.us/dep/deputate/watermgt/WSM/WSM_TAO/Finan_Tech_Asst. htm.
