To construct, operate and maintain a 17-mile natural gas pipeline, a new railroad spur off of the Norfolk Southern main line and a 2-inch sanitary sewer line to support operations at a new gypsum wallboard plant. All stream impacts associated with the gas pipeline and the sanitary sewer are intended to be temporary. One permanent stream impact is associated with the railroad spur and will consist of replacement of an existing Culvert Crossing. Wetland impacts associated with this project are as follows: Natural gas pipeline impacts total 4.51 acres of forested, emergent, forested/scrub shrub and open water. These impacts are intended to be constructed in such a manner as to not create secondary impacts associated with these locations. Rail spur wetland impacts total 1.74 acres of permanent impacts and 3.33 acres of estimated indirect impacts associated with forested, scrub shrub and emergent wetland complexes. The sanitary sewer line proposes one emergent temporary wetland impact totaling 0.04 acre. This project spans a multi county, multitownship alignment and is intended to support the minimum permanent impacts to any wetland and stream impacts. The drainage basins involved with this project are as follows UNT to Sugar Run (CWF), Derr Run (CWF), Jakes Run (CWF), Little Muncy Creek (CWF), Laurel Run (CWF), West Branch of Chillisquaque Creek (WWF), Middle Branch Chillisquaque Creek (WWF), Mud Creek (WWF) and UNTs to these Streams.

Department of Environmental Protection to Withdraw the Nutrient TMDLs for Neshaminy Creek Watershed
Department of Environmental Protection (Department) intends to withdraw, subject to United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) approval, the established nutrient Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) for the Neshaminy Creek Watershed. The Department developed, and EPA approved, nutrient TMDLs for the Neshaminy Creek Watershed on December 9, 2003. EPA proposes to establish, by June 30, 2008, TMDLs to replace the withdrawn TMDLs. The revised TMDLs will be based on an additional scientific evaluation of the nutrient-algal growth relationship as well as additional water quality modeling evaluations.
The Rationale for Withdrawal document can be accessed at www.dep.state.pa.us, DEP keyword: TMDL. Select Neshaminy Creek TMDL by name.
Direct any questions about the Neshaminy Creek TMDL withdrawal to Bill Brown at (717) 783-2951 or willbrown@state.pa.us.
