Request for Comment and Notice of
Public Meeting for the Proposed Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) for the Little Juniata River in Blair CountyCentral Office: Bureau Director, Water Supply and Wastewater Management, P. O. Box 8467, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8467.
The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) will accept comments on the proposed TMDL developed for the Little Juniata River in Blair County. The TMDL was established in accordance with the requirements of Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. Pennsylvania's 1996 and 1998 Section 303(d) lists included stream segments in the watershed. The listings of these segments were due to use impairments caused by nutrients and siltation.
There currently are no State or Federal in-stream numerical water quality criteria for nutrients and sediment. Therefore, the Department utilized a reference watershed approach to implement the applicable narrative criteria. The proposed TMDL sets allowable loadings of phosphorus and sediment in the Little Juniata River Watershed. The phosphorus loadings were allocated among all land use categories as well as point sources present in the watershed. Data used in establishing these TMDLs were generated using a water quality analysis model (AVGWLF) designed by the Pennsylvania State University. STREAMPLAN-PA was used to model the point sources in the watershed.
The data and all supporting documentation used to develop the proposed TMDL are available from the Department. The proposed TMDL and information on the TMDL program can be viewed on the Department's website at www.dep.state.pa.us (PA Keyword: TMDL). To request a copy of this TMDL, contact Lee McDonnell, Department of Environmental Protection, Water Supply and Wastewater Management, P. O. Box 8467, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8467, (717) 787-9637 or lmcdonnell@ state.pa.us.
The Department will consider all comments in developing the final TMDL, which will be submitted to the EPA for approval. Written comments will be accepted at the previously listed address and must be postmarked by March 7, 2005. A public meeting to discuss the technical merits of the TMDL will be held on February 15, 2005, at 7 p.m. at the Antis Township Building.
