(100 words or less) This proposal modifies Chapter 93 to reflect the recommended redesignation of streams shown on the attached list. The changes include streams being considered for redesignation as Exceptional Value (EV) Waters. The changes provide the appropriate designated use for these streams to protect existing uses. These changes may, upon implementation, result in more stringent treatment requirements for new and/or expanded wastewater discharges to the streams in order to protect the existing and designated water uses. -
HIGH ALLEGHENY PLATEAU ECOREGIONAL PLAN: FIRST ITERATION Conservation Science Support—Northeast and Caribbean
HIGH ALLEGHENY PLATEAU ECOREGIONAL PLAN: FIRST ITERATION Conservation Science Support—Northeast and Caribbean The High Allegheny Plan is a first iteration, a scientific assessment of the ecoregion. As part of the planning process, other aspects of the plan will be developed in future iterations, along with updates to the ecological assessment itself. These include fuller evaluations of threats to the ecoregion, constraints on conservation activities, and implementation strategies. CSS is now developing a standard template for ecoregional plans, which we have applied to the HAL first iteration draft report, distributed in 2002. Some of the HAL results have been edited or updated for this version. Click on the navigation pane to browse the report sections. What is the purpose of the report template? The purpose of creating a standard template for ecoregional plans in the Northeast is twofold: — to compile concise descriptions of methodologies developed and used for ecoregional assessment in the Northeast. These descriptions are meant to meet the needs of planning team members who need authoritative text to include in future plan documents, of science staff who need to respond to questions of methodology, and of program and state directors looking for material for general audience publications. — to create a modular resource whose pieces can be selected, incorporated in various formats, linked to in other documents, and updated easily. How does the template work? Methods are separated from results in this format, and the bulk of our work has gone into the standard methods sections. We have tried to make each methods section stand alone. Every section includes its own citation on the first page. -

Docket No. CP15-520-000 TO THE PARTY ADDRESSED: The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or Commission) has prepared this environmental assessment (EA) for the Triad Expansion Project (Project) proposed by Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company, L.L.C. (Tennessee) in the above-referenced docket. Tennessee requests authorization to construct pipeline facilities in Pennsylvania to provide up to 180,000 dekatherms per day of new natural gas delivery capacity. The EA assesses the potential environmental effects of the construction and operation of the Project in accordance with the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act. The FERC staff concludes that approval of the proposed Project, with appropriate mitigating measures, would not constitute a major federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human environment. Tennessee’s proposed Project involves construction of approximately 7.0 miles of 36-inch-diameter pipeline; a new pig1 launcher, crossover, and connecting facilities at the beginning of the proposed pipeline; a new pig receiver; and a new odorant facility and ancillary piping at Tennessee’s existing Compressor Station 321. FERC staff mailed copies of the EA to federal, state, and local government representatives and agencies; elected officials; public interest groups; Native American tribes; potentially affected landowners and other interested individuals and groups; newspapers and libraries in the project area; and parties to this proceeding. -

RESULTS for AQUATIC SYSTEMS and SPECIES* the HAL Aquatics Analysis Did Not Deviate from the Standard Methodology Documented in Olivero Et Al (2003)1
RESULTS FOR AQUATIC SYSTEMS AND SPECIES* The HAL aquatics analysis did not deviate from the standard methodology documented in Olivero et al (2003)1. In fact, the hard work of the HAL aquatics assessment team significantly contributed to the formulation of this standard methodology for aquatic ecoregional assessments in the Northeast. Major Rivers Within HAL Allegheny River – The Allegheny River drains much of the region west of the Appalachians then flows westward to join the Mississippi. The river flows 325 miles and drains 11,778 square miles, flowing north from its source near Coudersport, PA, through Olean, NY, before turning south and entering the huge Allegheny Reservoir on the Pennsylvania/New York border. Below the reservoir, the river flows another 200 miles before it joins the Monongahela River in Pittsburgh to form the Ohio River, which empties into the Mississippi and eventually flows into the Gulf of Mexico below New Orleans, Louisiana. Nearly 72 percent of the Allegheny River watershed is covered in forest. Along its course the river and its tributaries cross through both glaciated and unglaciated landforms. This journey gives the river much of its unique physical and biological characteristics. The Allegheny River also passes through 22 counties, 2 states, the Allegheny National Forest, Allegany State Forest (NY), thousands of acres of state game lands, and 85-miles of Allegheny National Wild and Scenic River corridor. Delaware River – The Delaware is the longest undammed river east of the Mississippi, extending 330 miles from the confluence of its East and West branches at Hancock, New York to the mouth of the Delaware Bay. -
