Following aeration and sedimentation, up to 0.035 mgd of wastewater 
will be applied to a subsurface absorption bed for final processing and 
disposal. In addition to proposed Discharge Monitoring Reports, the 
existing groundwater monitoring well network will be used to assure 
that the proposed treatment system does not impair groundwater quality. 
The project is located in the Mongaup River Watershed upstream from 
Swinging Bridge Reservoir and in the drainage area of DRBC Special 
Protection Waters. Although the Town of Bethel Landfill is capped with 
impervious materials, it is an unlined facility with residual leachate 
seepage that currently flows overland to the West Branch Mongaup River 
without any prior treatment.

advanced treatment via extended aeration and tertiary filtration prior 
to ultraviolet light disinfection and discharge to Harvey Run, a 
tributary of Brandywine Creek in the Christina River Watershed. Its 
proposed location is the intersection of U.S. Route 1 (Baltimore Pike) 
and Ring Road, across from the Brandywine Battlefield State Park. The 
Pantos WWTP that currently serves Chadds Ford Village and the Painter's 
Crossing Condominiums is proposed to be converted to a pumping station,

District public water supply distribution system from new Wells Nos. 
SF-01, SF-02 and KWE-02, respectively. The wells are all located in the 
Federalsburg and Cheswold aquifers. The total withdrawal from all wells

District public water supply distribution system from new Wells Nos. 
WQ-01, WQ-02 and WQ-04, respectively. Wells Nos. WQ-01 and WQ-04 are 
located in the Frederica Formation and Well No. WQ-02 is located in the 
Piney Point Aquifer. The total withdrawal from all wells will be 
limited to 3.51 mg/30 days. The project is located in the St. Jones 
River Watershed in Kent County, Delaware.
    27. Penns Grove Sewerage Authority D-2005-29 CP-1. An application 
to upgrade, but not expand, a 0.75 million gallon per day wastewater 
treatment plant (WWTP), which serves Penns Grove Borough, Salem County, 
New Jersey. The WWTP upgrade will provide two new final clarifiers with 
appurtenances. The existing final clarifiers require costly chemical 
additives to meet NJPDES permit limits, particularly during surge flow 
conditions. The two new final clarifiers should reduce or eliminate the 
need to add costly chemicals to meet permit limits. Penns Grove 
Sewerage Authority requested and was granted emergency approval by the 
DRBC on January 12, 2006 to implement the WWTP improvements 
expeditiously, in order to meet a construction grant deadline. The WWTP 
will continue to discharge to the Delaware River in DRBC Water Quality 
Zone 5 through the existing outfall.
    28. Camp Ramah in the Poconos D-2005-30-1. An application to 
upgrade an existing seasonally operated WWTP by the addition of a new 
primary clarification process and a new aeration system. Seasonally, 
the WWTP discharges approximately 30,000 gallons per day to an unnamed 
tributary of Equinunk Creek, a tributary to the West Branch Delaware 
River. The facility is located in Buckingham Township, Wayne County, 
Pennsylvania.
    29. U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Philadelphia District D-2005-32 
CP-1. An application to modify the Prompton Dam to safely pass the 
Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) of 111,000 cubic feet per second (cfs), 
based upon revised estimates of flow regimes for the 60-square mile 
drainage area. The original PMF flow of 81,500 cfs was calculated in 
the year 1949, prior to advancements in mathematical modeling. 
Primarily a flood control facility, Prompton Dam is located in Prompton 
Borough, Wayne County, Pennsylvania. The lake that it forms on the West 
Branch Lackawaxen River extends into Clinton Township, also in Wayne 
County. The project involves the widening of the spillway from 50 to 85 
feet, constructing a fuse-plug in the spillway, upgrading the outlet 
works rip-rap, and constructing an embankment with material that will 
be excavated from the spillway. The project is located in the drainage 
area of DRBC Special Protection Waters and the Upper Delaware Scenic 
and Recreational River.
    In addition to the public hearing on the dockets listed above, the 
Commission's 1:30 p.m. business meeting will include a public hearing 
on a resolution to approve the Commission's FY 2006-2007 budget and 
work plan. The Commission also will consider a resolution amending the 
Basin Regulations--Water Supply Charges regarding certificates of 
entitlement; a resolution establishing the PMP Peer Review Advisory 
Committee; and a resolution authorizing the Executive Director to 
extend the Commission's contract with the Northeast-Midwest Institute 
on a month-to-month basis through December 31, 2006.
