Route 512 in Plainfield Township,
Northampton County, Pennsylvania.
The LTP serves the Grand Central
Sanitary Landfill, which receives
interstate, non-hazardous refuse. The
existing activated sludge treatment
process will be upgraded with a
sequencing batch reactor system that
includes powdered activated carbon and
polymer addition. The existing reverse
osmosis (RO) system will be replaced
with an improved model that includes
microfiltration. This advanced treatment
is designed to meet an effluent Total
Dissolved Solids (TDS) limit of 1,000
E:\FR\FM\05JYN1.SGM

38664
Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 127 / Tuesday, July 5, 2005 / Notices
milligrams per liter (mg/l). Thus, the
DRBC’s TDS effluent limit of 2,400
mg/l will be reduced to 1,000 mg/l.
Additional process and operational
improvements will be made. No
expansion of the LTP is proposed. The
primary method of leachate disposal for
the landfill is to discharge to the Pen
Argyl Sewage Treatment Plant (STP)
following partial treatment, and the
secondary alternative is to discharge
fully treated effluent to Little Bush Kill
in the drainage area of the Lower
Delaware River Management Plan Area.
22. Delaware County Solid Waste
Authority D–89–18 CP–3. An
application to modify the Rolling Hills
Sanitary Landfill (RHSL) (formerly
Colebrookdale Landfill) leachate
treatment plant (LTP) discharge to
Manatawny Creek via Outfall 001 in the
Schuylkill River Watershed. The landfill
and LTP are located off Schenkel Road
in Earl Township, Berks County,
Pennsylvania. Following advanced
treatment of 0.08 million gallons per
day (mgd), LTP effluent is discharged
via diffuser to a point on the
Manatawny Creek in Oley Township,
Berks County, Pennsylvania
approximately one mile downstream
from RHSL. The docket holder has
requested an increase in the average
discharge concentration of total
dissolved solids (TDS) to 30,000
milligrams per liter (mg/l) from the
existing 15,000 mg/l. In support of its
requested modification, the docket
holder has submitted an analysis
concluding that the proposed
modification will cause no adverse
effect on the downstream aquatic
community, nor will it threaten potable
water supply intakes located over 20
river miles downstream. In further
support to this determination, the
docket holder will demonstrate via instream monitoring and assessment of
analytical data to be collected in at least
a one-year period, that the project will
not have an adverse impact. An
alternatives analysis was completed by
the docket holder. The LTP uses the
Best Practicable Treatment (BCT)
technology. A wetlands treatment
system is used to remove iron from up
to 0.087 mgd of on-site groundwater. No
expansion of the LTP or the wetlands
treatment system is proposed. PADEP
has approved the discharge from the
wetlands treatment system via Outfall
006 to adjacent Furnace Run.
23. Pennsylvania Utility Company D–
89–33 CP–2. An application for the
renewal of a ground water withdrawal
project to continue to supply up to 6.4
mg/30 days of water to the applicant’s
public water distribution system from
Wells Nos. 1, 2 and 3 in the Catskill

Formation. The project is located in
Lehman Township, Pike County,
Pennsylvania. (This was NAR’d under
the name of Tamiment Water Company
as D–89–33 CP Renewal.)
24. Pilgrims Pride Corporation D–89–
65–2. An application to modify an
industrial wastewater treatment plant
(IWTP) discharge to an unnamed,
intermittent tributary of Indian Creek in
the Perkiomen Creek Watershed. The
project, formerly owned by WamplerLongacre, Inc. is located at the
intersection of Allentown Road and
Route 113 in Franconia Township,
Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. The
facility formerly processed tuna and
poultry but currently processes only
poultry products. Because the project is
located in the Southeastern
Pennsylvania Ground Water Protected
Area, the applicant has implemented
mandatory water conservation
measures. As a result, total dissolved
solids (TDS) are present at an elevated
concentration in the IWTP effluent. The
applicant’s current draft NPDES Permit
limits the effluent TDS concentration to
1,000 milligrams per liter (mg/l). The
applicant requests a limit of 4,700
mg/l, which is consistent with the
Pennsylvania Department of
Environmental Protection’s draft permit
limit for osmotic pressure of 100
milliosmos per kilogram. The applicant
has submitted with its requested
modification an analysis that addresses
environmental impact. The project is
located in the drainage area of the
Schuylkill River, which is conditionally
designated as Modified-Recreational in
the Delaware River Basin Commission
Comprehensive Plan.
25. Blue Mountain Water Cooperative
D–93–27–2. An application for the
renewal of a ground water withdrawal
project to reduce withdrawal from 10.8
mg/30 days to 5 mg/30 days to supply
the applicant’s Tilden Industrial Park
from existing Wells Nos. 1, 2 and 5. The
project is located in the Schuylkill River
Watershed in Tilden Township, Berks
County, Pennsylvania.
26. Filomina, Inc. D–93–47–2. An
application for renewal of a ground
water withdrawal project to continue to
supply up to 9.1 mg/30 days of water for
supplemental irrigation of the
applicant’s golf course from existing
Wells Nos. 1, 6 and 8, all in the Catskill
Formation. No change in the existing
allocation is proposed. The project is
located in the Pohopoco Creek
Watershed in Polk Township, Monroe
County, Pennsylvania.
27. Lower Makefield Township D–
2002–48 CP–2. An application for
approval of a ground water withdrawal
project to supply up to 1.73 mg/30 days
PO 00000

withdrawal from existing Wells Nos.
PW–1 and PW–2 and new Well PW–3
of 8.64 mg/30 days. The project is
located in the Delaware River
Watershed in Lower Makefield
Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania.

21. Grand Central Sanitary Landfill, Inc. D-88-52-2. An application
to upgrade a 0.1 million gallon per day leachate treatment plant (LTP)
located on a 537.9-acre tract, just east of State Route 512 in
Plainfield Township, Northampton County, Pennsylvania. The LTP serves
the Grand Central Sanitary Landfill, which receives interstate, non-
hazardous refuse. The existing activated sludge treatment process will
be upgraded with a sequencing batch reactor system that includes
powdered activated carbon and polymer addition. The existing reverse
osmosis (RO) system will be replaced with an improved model that
includes microfiltration. This advanced treatment is designed to meet
an effluent Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) limit of 1,000
[[Page 38664]]
milligrams per liter (mg/l). Thus, the DRBC's TDS effluent limit of
2,400 mg/l will be reduced to 1,000 mg/l. Additional process and
operational improvements will be made. No expansion of the LTP is
proposed. The primary method of leachate disposal for the landfill is
to discharge to the Pen Argyl Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) following
partial treatment, and the secondary alternative is to discharge fully
treated effluent to Little Bush Kill in the drainage area of the Lower
Delaware River Management Plan Area.
22. Delaware County Solid Waste Authority D-89-18 CP-3. An
application to modify the Rolling Hills Sanitary Landfill (RHSL)
(formerly Colebrookdale Landfill) leachate treatment plant (LTP)
discharge to Manatawny Creek via Outfall 001 in the Schuylkill River
Watershed. The landfill and LTP are located off Schenkel Road in Earl
Township, Berks County, Pennsylvania. Following advanced treatment of
0.08 million gallons per day (mgd), LTP effluent is discharged via
diffuser to a point on the Manatawny Creek in Oley Township, Berks
County, Pennsylvania approximately one mile downstream from RHSL. The
docket holder has requested an increase in the average discharge
concentration of total dissolved solids (TDS) to 30,000 milligrams per
liter (mg/l) from the existing 15,000 mg/l. In support of its requested
modification, the docket holder has submitted an analysis concluding
that the proposed modification will cause no adverse effect on the
downstream aquatic community, nor will it threaten potable water supply
intakes located over 20 river miles downstream. In further support to
this determination, the docket holder will demonstrate via in-stream
monitoring and assessment of analytical data to be collected in at
least a one-year period, that the project will not have an adverse
impact. An alternatives analysis was completed by the docket holder.
The LTP uses the Best Practicable Treatment (BCT) technology. A
wetlands treatment system is used to remove iron from up to 0.087 mgd
of on-site groundwater. No expansion of the LTP or the wetlands
treatment system is proposed. PADEP has approved the discharge from the
wetlands treatment system via Outfall 006 to adjacent Furnace Run.
23. Pennsylvania Utility Company D-89-33 CP-2. An application for
the renewal of a ground water withdrawal project to continue to supply
up to 6.4 mg/30 days of water to the applicant's public water
distribution system from Wells Nos. 1, 2 and 3 in the Catskill
Formation. The project is located in Lehman Township, Pike County,
Pennsylvania. (This was NAR'd under the name of Tamiment Water Company
as D-89-33 CP Renewal.)
24. Pilgrims Pride Corporation D-89-65-2. An application to modify
an industrial wastewater treatment plant (IWTP) discharge to an
unnamed, intermittent tributary of Indian Creek in the Perkiomen Creek
Watershed. The project, formerly owned by Wampler-Longacre, Inc. is
located at the intersection of Allentown Road and Route 113 in
Franconia Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. The facility
formerly processed tuna and poultry but currently processes only
poultry products. Because the project is located in the Southeastern
Pennsylvania Ground Water Protected Area, the applicant has implemented
mandatory water conservation measures. As a result, total dissolved
solids (TDS) are present at an elevated concentration in the IWTP
effluent. The applicant's current draft NPDES Permit limits the
effluent TDS concentration to 1,000 milligrams per liter (mg/l). The
applicant requests a limit of 4,700 mg/l, which is consistent with the
Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection's draft permit
limit for osmotic pressure of 100 milliosmos per kilogram. The
applicant has submitted with its requested modification an analysis
that addresses environmental impact. The project is located in the
drainage area of the Schuylkill River, which is conditionally
designated as Modified-Recreational in the Delaware River Basin
Commission Comprehensive Plan.
25. Blue Mountain Water Cooperative D-93-27-2. An application for
the renewal of a ground water withdrawal project to reduce withdrawal
from 10.8 mg/30 days to 5 mg/30 days to supply the applicant's Tilden

Formation. No change in the existing allocation is proposed. The
project is located in the Pohopoco Creek Watershed in Polk Township,
Monroe County, Pennsylvania.
27. Lower Makefield Township D-2002-48 CP-2. An application for
approval of a ground water withdrawal project to supply up to 1.73 mg/
30 days of water for supplemental irrigation of the applicant's golf
course from new Well No. PW-3 in the Stockton Formation, and to retain
the maximum withdrawal from existing Wells Nos. PW-1 and PW-2 and new
Well PW-3 of 8.64 mg/30 days. The project is located in the Delaware
River Watershed in Lower Makefield Township, Bucks County,
Pennsylvania.
