Project Description: The Department of Environmental Protection has reviewed and approved a requested Categorical Exclusion for a project submitted on behalf of South Whitehall Township Authority on March 4, 2005, by The Pidcock Company. Notification of the project, which involves replacement of a booster pump station near the intersection of Huckleberry Road and Whitehall Avenue, was originally published at 35 Pa.B. 1780 (March 19, 2005). The required public notice for the Categorical Exclusion was published in The Morning Call on March 8, 2005.
Public Meeting and Request for Comment for the Proposed Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for the Blue Run Watershed in Clearfield County Moshannon District Mining Office: 186 Enterprise Drive, Phillipsburg, PA 16866, (814) 342-8200.
The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) will hold a public meeting to discuss and accept comments on a proposed TMDL for the Blue Run Watershed in Clearfield County. The meeting will be held on January 25, 2006, at 6:30 p.m. at the Clearfield County Multiservice Center on Daisy Street in Clearfield, PA. Individuals who plan to make a presentation at the public meeting should contact John Mital, Moshannon District Mining Office at (814) 342-8200 no later than 4 p.m. on Friday, January 20, 2006. The Department will consider all comments in developing the final TMDL for the Blue Run Watershed which will be submitted to the Environmental Protection Agency for approval.
The proposed TMDL for the Blue Run Watershed was established in accordance with the requirements of the Clean Water Act, Section 303(d). One stream segment in the Blue Run Watershed has been identified as impaired on the 1998 Pennsylvania Section 303(d) list due to depressed pH and/or high concentrations of metals. The listed segment and miles degraded are shown in the following table:
Stream Code (Segment ID) Stream Name Miles Degraded 26293 (7177) Blue Run 1.35 The proposed plan provides calculations of the stream's total capacity to accept metals (aluminum, iron, manganese and acidity), pH and maintain levels below water quality criteria. The applicable water quality criteria are as follows:
Parameter Criterion value (mg/l) Total Recoverable/ Dissolved Aluminum 0.75 Total Recoverable Iron 1.5 Total Recoverable Manganese 1.00 Total Recoverable pH 6.0--9.0 NA The primary pollutant source for the watershed is abandoned mine workings. This watershed was mined for coal in the 1900s. The effects of this are still present.
The proposed TMDL was developed using Monte Carlo Simulation to determine long-term average concentrations that each stream segment could accept and still meet water quality criteria 99% of the time. Monte Carlo Simulation allows for the expansion of a data set based on its statistical makeup. Since there was no critical flow condition where criteria were exceeded, the Department used the average flow to express the loading values in the proposed TMDL. The proposed TMDL for the Blue Run Watershed sets allowable loading rates for metals and acidity at specified points in the watershed. Field data collected over the past 2 years was used to establish the proposed TMDL for the Blue Run Watershed. The data and all supporting information used to develop the proposed TMDL are available from the Department.
The Department will accept written comments on the proposed TMDL for the Blue Run Watershed. Written comments must be postmarked by February 2, 2006, and sent to John Mital, Geologic Specialist, Department of Environmental Protection, Moshannon District Mining Office, 186 Enterprise Drive, Philipsburg, PA 16866, (814) 342-8200, jmital@state.pa.us.
To request a copy of the proposed TMDL and associated information sheet or to obtain directions to the Clearfield County Multiservice Center, contact John Mital, (814) 342-8200, jmital@state.pa.us.
The proposed TMDL for the Blue Run Watershed can be accessed through the Department's website at www. dep.state.pa.us (DEP Keyword: TMDL). Persons with a disability who require accommodations to attend this meeting should contact the Department at (814) 472-1900 or the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service at (800) 654-5984 (TDD users) or (800) 654-5988 (voice users) to discuss how the Department may accommodate their needs.
