Notice of Proposed Settlement; LTV Steel Company, Inc. v. DEP Doc. No. 98-065-R

[30 Pa.B. 4074]

   The Department of Environmental Protection (Department) and LTV Steel Company, Inc. (LTV) have agreed to a settlement of the noted matter. The Department issued Post-Mining Activity Permit No. 63971701 to LTV to authorize the construction and operation of a mine drainage treatment facility at the abandoned Clyde Mine in East Bethlehem Township, Washington County. LTV appealed the permit for the purpose of seeking a modification of the osmotic pressure effluent limitation in the permit. LTV provided the Department with additional information which demonstrated that it was appropriate to modify the effluent and the Department agreed in a Consent Adjudication to modify the effluent limitation. The permit will be modified within 2 weeks of the effective date of the Consent Adjudication.
