FEDERAL WATER POLLUTION
CONTROL ACT SECTION 401The Department has taken the following actions on previously received permit applications, requests for Environmental Assessment approval, and requests for Water Quality Certification under section 401 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (FWPCA) (33 U.S.C.A. § 1341).
Except as otherwise noted, the Department has granted 401 Water Quality Certification certifying that the construction and operation described will comply with the applicable provisions of sections 301—303, 306 and 307 of the FWPCA (33 U.S.C.A. §§ 1311—1313, 1316 and 1317), and that the construction will not violate applicable Federal and State Water Quality Standards.
Any person aggrieved by these actions may appeal, pursuant to section 4 of the Environmental Hearing Board Act, 35 P.S. § 7514, and the Administrative Agency Law, 2 Pa.C.S. Chapter 5A, to the Environmental Hearing Board, Second Floor, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, P.O. Box 8457, Harrisburg, PA 17105-8457, (717) 787-3483. TDD users may contact the Board through the Pennsylvania AT&T Relay Service, (800) 654-5984. Appeals must be filed with the Environmental Hearing Board within 30-days of publication of this notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, unless the appropriate statute provides a different time period. Copies of the appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure may be obtained from the Board. The appeal form and the Board's rules of practice and procedure are also available in braille or on audiotape from the Secretary to the Board at (717) 787-3483. This paragraph does not, in and of itself, create any right of appeal beyond that permitted by applicable statutes and decisional law.
If you want to challenge this action, your appeal must reach the Board within 30-days. You do not need a lawyer to file an appeal with the Board.
Important legal rights are at stake, however, so you should show this notice to a lawyer at one. If you cannot afford a lawyer, you may qualify for free pro bono representation. Call the Secretary to the Board (717) 787-3483 for more information.
WATER OBSTRUCTIONS AND ENCROACHMENTS
Actions on applications for the following activities filed under the Dam Safety and Encroachments Act (32 P.S. §§ 693.1—693.27), section 302 of the Flood Plain Management Act (32 P.S. § 679.302) and The Clean Streams Law and Notice of Final Action for Certification under section 401 of the FWPCA.

Permit No. EA46012-025, Perkiomen Watershed Conservancy, 1 West Skippack Pike, Schwenksville, PA 19473, Perkiomen Township, Montgomery County, ACOE Philadelphia District.
To perform the following water obstruction and encroachment activities within Jacob Reiff Park along approximately 315 linear feet of West Branch of Skippack Creek and tribs (Perennial, TSF):
1. Streambank Restoration (315 feet West Branch)—Plantings (live stakes) are proposed along a portion of the West Branch of Skippack Creek to help alleviate erosion of the streambank. As part of the restoration, rip-rap will be placed (hand placed) below the normal water elevation.
2. Floodplain Reconnection—A portion of the streambank will be lowered to allow water to overflow during higher flows into a shallow ponding area. The ponding area will be planted with a mix of both native wetland seed mix and live stakes. This will allow for a reconnection of the floodplain in this area and a slowing of floodwaters. In the event of high flow events, a stabilized overflow will allow for water to re-enter the stream.
3. Re-establish Tributary Channel (Tributary No. 1) (390 feet)—An existing tributary channel is located to the east of the proposed ponding area and conveys flow from a 36" CMP located in Quarry Road. The project includes the re-establishment and stabilization of this tributary.
4. Tributary Erosion Control—Tributary (energy dissipator—R-5 rip-rap)—An additional tributary is located to the north of the proposed ponding area and conveys flow from an 18" HDPE pipe also located in Quarry Road. A rip-rap apron is proposed. Additionally, the rip-rap apron will act as a level spreader to convert the concentrated channel flow into sheet flow.
The Jacob Reiff Park site is located near the intersection of Quarry and Upper Mainland Roads in Lower Salford Township, Montgomery County (Collegeville USGS Quadrangles, Latitude 40.241728 N"; Longitude—75.380698 W").

The project includes a cumulative permanent impact of 1.701 acre1 of PEM wetlands, 754 linear feet of watercourse, and 1.057 acre of floodway. Temporary cumulative impacts, for which minimization and restoration shall be implemented, are 0.075 acre of wetlands, 177 linear feet of watercourse, and 0.404 acre of floodway. The applicant has offered compensatory mitigation for permanent impacts to Regulated Waters of this Commonwealth incurred with project construction. The design objectives of the compensatory mitigation are water quality improvement and wetland creation through the construction, operation and maintenance of a new abandoned mine drainage abatement system. The passive system will capture and treat acid mine drainage from a tributary of Camp Hope Run (UNTCHR-04), and the effluent from the system will be used to create 2.2 acres of new wetlands along Camp Hope Run. The Camp Hope Run Landfill and ancillary water pollution control facilities are located along the western right-of-way of SR 0153 approximately 2.1-miles north of the SR 2012/0153 intersection. *Listed impacts for SB-2 and SB-4 (POW wetlands) are waived of compensatory mitigation requirements under § 105.12(a)(6).

The applicant will expand the Houtzdale oil and propane business along SR 53 in Woodward Township. The project will result in 0.151 acre of permanent wetland impact. The palustrine emergent wetland is not considered exceptional value and no known threatened or endangered species inhabit the resource. Mitigation for the impact will be completed onsite by converting 0.151 acre of upland to wetland. The ditches on the property through the existing wetlands will be plugged. The mitigation area plus the adjacent natural wetland will be protected by a deed restriction.

SPECIAL NOTICES
OIL AND GAS MANAGEMENT Northwest District Oil and Gas Operations: Brian Babb, 230 Chestnut Street, Meadville, PA 16335-3481.
Notice is hereby given that the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) has received a request from Chesapeake Energy Corporation to waive the 330-foot setback as required by the Oil and Gas Conservation Law (OGCL) (58 P.S. §§ 401—419) regarding the MTL 6HC Well borehole, API No. 015-23541 located in Wyalusing and Tuscarora Townships, Bradford County. The Notice is also given that the DEP will conduct a public hearing for this waiver on Wednesday, February 26, 2020 beginning at 6:00 P.M.—7:30 P.M. at the Wyalusing Township Office, 2473 Old Stagecoach Rd., Wyalusing, PA 18853.
Chesapeake Energy is proposing to drill the MTL 6H Well which will penetrate the Onondaga formation, therefore the wellbore is subject to the OGCL and 25 Pa. Code Chapter 79. A well subject to the OGCL must be at least 330 feet from the nearest outside boundary line of the lease on which it is located, or if the lease is included in a voluntary unit, the well must be located 330 feet from the nearest unit line. The 330-foot setback applies to the entire length of both the vertical and horizontal well bore.
