  • Applications Type Given to Me by R
    REQUEST FOR COMMENT & NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING Proposed Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) for Lake Jean in Luzerne and Sullivan Counties. Northcentral Region: Water Supply Management Program Manager, 208 West Third Street, Williamsport, PA 17701 The Department of Environmental Protection will accept comments on the proposed TMDL developed for the Lake Jean in Sullivan and Luzerne Counties. The TMDL was established in accordance with the requirements of Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act. Pennsylvania’s 1996, 1998 and 2004 Section 303(d) lists included Lake Jean as impaired by low pH due to acid deposition. Pennsylvania’s water quality criteria, as described in PA Code § 93.7, require the pH to be between 6.0 and 9.0. This TMDL will address pH by analyzing the balance between acidity and alkalinity. A two-step approach is used for the analysis of atmospheric deposition impaired waterbodies. The first step is a statistical method for determining the allowable instream concentration at the point of interest (sample location) necessary to meet water quality standards. The second step is a mass balance of the loads as they pass through the watershed. The following table shows the estimated current acidity loading for the sample locations within the watershed. Overall load reductions necessary in order to meet the TMDLs are also identified: Summary of TMDL-Based Load Reductions in the Lake Jean Watershed Sample Location Pollutant Existing Load TMDL % (lbs/yr) (lbs/day) Reduction Ganoga Lake Tributary Acidity 140.6 4.1 97 Beaver Dam Tributary Acidity 33.5 4.3 87 Direct Drainage to Lake Acidity 184.0 10.9 94 Lake Outlet Acidity 194.0 34.2 0 The data and all supporting documentation used to develop the proposed TMDL are available from the Department.

Abstract Current levels of available resources to maintain and preserve the Pennsylvania short-line railroad bridge infrastructure require that important priority decisions be made on an annual basis. The primary objective of this study was to establish a reliable database of Pennsylvania SLRR bridges and to develop a risk-based bridge prioritization algorithm. A bridge survey of Pennsylvania short-line railroad owners and operators was conducted to develop a bridge database that would be as complete and accurate as possible given the available time and resources.
