    February 15, 2017 VIA EMAIL AND U.S. MAIL Mr. S. Jay Zimmerman, Acting Director DENR Division of Water Resources Attn. Belews WW Permit 1617 Mail Service Center Raleigh, N.C., 27699-1617 [email protected] [email protected] Re: Draft NPDES Wastewater Permit – Belews Creek Steam Station, #NC0024406 Dear Mr. Zimmerman: On behalf of Appalachian Voices, the Southern Environmental Law Center submits the following comments on the 2017 draft National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (“NPDES”) permit noticed for public comment by the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (“DEQ”), Division of Water Resources (“DWR”), which purports for the first time to allow Duke Energy Carolinas LLC (“Duke Energy”) to discharge increased and in many cases unlimited pollution into the Dan River, Belews Lake, and other waters of North Carolina and the United States. We have previously submitted comments on an earlier draft permit in November 2016, and those comments remain applicable, except as explained below. As set forth below, the proposed permit violates the Clean Water Act (“CWA”) because, among other things: it allows unlimited toxic pollution of the Dan River and Belews Lake; it authorizes a wastewater treatment facility to malfunction and leak wastewater; it illegally turns North Carolina streams into wastewater ditches with no clean water protections; it puts in place excessive and ineffective limits for many toxic pollutants; and it reduces substantially clean water protections that have been contained in NPDES permits

  • Analyzing the Energy Industry in United States
    +44 20 8123 2220 [email protected] Analyzing the Energy Industry in United States https://marketpublishers.com/r/AC4983D1366EN.html Date: June 2012 Pages: 700 Price: US$ 450.00 (Single User License) ID: AC4983D1366EN Abstracts The global energy industry has explored many options to meet the growing energy needs of industrialized economies wherein production demands are to be met with supply of power from varied energy resources worldwide. There has been a clearer realization of the finite nature of oil resources and the ever higher pushing demand for energy. The world has yet to stabilize on the complex geopolitical undercurrents which influence the oil and gas production as well as supply strategies globally. Aruvian's R'search’s report – Analyzing the Energy Industry in United States - analyzes the scope of American energy production from varied traditional sources as well as the developing renewable energy sources. In view of understanding energy transactions, the report also studies the revenue returns for investors in various energy channels which manifest themselves in American energy demand and supply dynamics. In depth view has been provided in this report of US oil, electricity, natural gas, nuclear power, coal, wind, and hydroelectric sectors. The various geopolitical interests and intentions governing the exploitation, production, trade and supply of these resources for energy production has also been analyzed by this report in a non-partisan manner. The report starts with a descriptive base analysis of the characteristics of the global energy industry in terms of economic quantity of demand. The drivers of demand and the traditional resources which are used to fulfill this demand are explained along with the emerging mandate of nuclear energy.

  • Introduction to the National Pretreatment Program Revised, 2011
    Disclaimer DISCLAIMER The discussion in this document is intended solely as a summary of existing guidance. This document is not a regulation, nor does it substitute for any requirements under the Clean Water Act (CWA) or U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) regulations. Thus, it does not impose legally binding requirements on EPA, states, municipalities, or the regulated community. The general descriptions provided in this document might not apply to a particular situation based on the circumstances. This document does not confer legal rights or impose legal obligations on any member of the public. Among other things, the document describes existing requirements with respect to industrial dischargers and publicly owned treatment works (POTWs) under the CWA and its implementing regulations at Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Parts 122, 123, 124, and 403 and chapter I, subchapter N. Although EPA has made every effort to ensure the accuracy of the discussion in this document, a discharger’s obligations are determined, in the case of directly discharging POTWs, by the terms of its National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit and EPA’s regulations or, in the case of indirect dischargers, by permits or equivalent control mechanisms issued to POTW industrial users or by regulatory requirements. Nothing in this document changes any statutory or regulatory requirement. If a conflict arises between this document’s content and any permit or regulation, the permit or regulation would be controlling. EPA and local decision makers retain the discretion to adopt approaches on a case- by-case basis that differ from those described in this document where appropriate and authorized by EPA regulations, state law, or local ordinances.

  • Animal Waste and Water Quality: EPA’S Response to the Waterkeeper Alliance Court Decision on Regulation of Cafos
    Animal Waste and Water Quality: EPA’s Response to the Waterkeeper Alliance Court Decision on Regulation of CAFOs Claudia Copeland Specialist in Resources and Environmental Policy November 8, 2011 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL33656 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Animal Waste and Water Quality Summary In October 2008, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a regulation to revise a 2003 Clean Water Act rule governing waste discharges from large confined animal feeding operations (CAFOs). This action was necessitated by a 2005 federal court decision (Waterkeeper Alliance et al. v. EPA, 399 F.3d 486 (2nd Cir. 2005)), resulting from challenges brought by agriculture industry groups and environmental advocacy groups, that vacated parts of the 2003 rule and remanded other parts to EPA for clarification. The Clean Water Act prohibits the discharge of pollutants from any “point source” to waters of the United States unless authorized under a permit that is issued by EPA or a qualified state, and the act expressly defines CAFOs as point sources. Permits limiting the type and quantity of pollutants that can be discharged are derived from effluent limitation guidelines promulgated by EPA. The 2003 rule, updating rules that had been in place since the 1970s, revised the way in which discharges of manure, wastewater, and other process wastes from CAFOs are regulated, and it modified both the permitting requirements and applicable effluent limitation guidelines. It contained important first-time requirements: all CAFOs must apply for a discharge permit, and all CAFOs that apply such waste on land must develop and implement a nutrient management plan.

  • (SO2) Emissions Review
    State of Ohio Environmental Protection Agency Division of Air Pollution Control Ohio’s 2021 Annual Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) Emissions Review Prepared by: The Ohio Environmental Protection Agency Division of Air Pollution Control DRAFT April 2021 [This page intentionally left blank] Background The United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) promulgated the revised National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for sulfur dioxide (SO2) on June 2, 2010. U.S. EPA replaced the 24-hour and annual standards with a new short-term 1-hour standard of 75 parts per billion (ppb). The new 1-hour SO2 standard was published on June 22, 2010 (75 FR 35520) and became effective on August 23, 2010. The standard is based on the 3-year average of the annual 99th percentile of 1-hour daily maximum concentrations. On August 15, 2013, U.S. EPA published (78 FR 47191) the initial, first round, SO2 nonattainment area designations for the 1-hour SO2 standard across the country based upon areas with monitored violations (effective October 4, 2013). On March 2, 2015, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California accepted as an enforceable order an agreement between the U.S. EPA and Sierra Club and the Natural Resources Defense Council to resolve litigation concerning the deadline for completing designations. As explained in U.S. EPA’s March 20, 2015 memorandum Updated Guidance for Area Designations for the 2010 Primary Sulfur Dioxide National Ambient Air Quality Standard, the court’s order directs U.S. EPA to complete the remaining designations in three steps: round two by July 2, 2016; round three by December 31, 2017 and round four by December 31, 2020.
