Final Technical Guidance—Substantive Revision

 DEP ID: 012-0900-003. Title: Policy on Public Participation in the Permit Review Process. Description: This policy establishes a framework for public participation in the permit application review process by providing consistent guidelines for how the Department encourages public participation in the review of a permit application and how it reviews and responds to comments received during the public participation process. The Department proposed making substantive revisions to this guidance document and opened it for public comment at 43 Pa.B. 3421 (June 22, 2013). During the public comment period, the Department received comments from 1,803 commentators. A comment-response document has been prepared and is posted in the eLibrary.

 Contact: Questions regarding this action should be directed to Laura Henry at (717) 705-3769 or lahenry@pa.gov.

 Effective Date: March 1, 2014

Final Technical Guidance—Rescission

 DEP ID: 362-0300-007. Title: Alternate Systems Guidance. Description: This document was published as final on February 6, 2004. Over the last 10 years, specifications for alternate onlot technologies in the guidance document have become outdated because of improvements in the technical design of alternate onlot treatment systems. The Department has posted the majority of the contents contained in the guidance document to the Department web site. The alternate technology listings are located by accessing the Department web site at www.dep.state.pa.us, using the keywords ''Onlot Sewage Technologies.'' Each manufacturer or each generic alternate onlot sewage treatment technology has an individual listing that includes the most current specifications. To maximize administrative efficiency, the process of posting online will greatly streamline the approval for manufacturers' products.

 Contact: Questions regarding this action should be directed to John Diehl, Chief, Act 537 Management at (717) 783-2941 or jdiehl@pa.gov.

 Effective Date: March 1, 2014
