STATE OF WYOMING PUBLIC NOTICE
Purpose of Public Notice
Operators
of the facilities listed below have applied to the Department of Environmental
Quality/Water Quality Division (DEQ/WQD) for permits to discharge wastewater
into streams or other surface waters.
After reviewing the applications and other information, the DEQ/WQD
staff has determined that these discharges should be permitted. The proposed permits contain limitations and
conditions that will assure that the state's surface water quality will be
protected and fulfill the requirements of Sections 402 and 303 of the federal
Clean Water Act.
The
purpose of this notice is to invite your comments on these proposed permits
before they are issued. Questions regarding
any of the proposed permits may be directed to Leah Coleman (307-777-7093).
Copies of the proposed permits will be available on our website at
http://deq.state.wy.us. To object to any
of the proposed permits, submit your comments in writing to Leah Coleman,
DEQ/WQD, Herschler Bldg. - 4W, Cheyenne, WY 82002 by the date shown below. If
no objection to a permit is received by the date shown below, the permit will
be issued as proposed. Upon request, a
copy of the draft permit, fact sheet, and other pertinent information is
available at the address listed above.
A complete copy of the permit file for all permits, including coal bed
methane permits, will be retained in the DEQ Cheyenne Field Office. Each permit file contains the proposed
permit, application form, fact sheet, and other pertinent information.
Any
interested person may submit written comments on a proposed permit and may
request a public meeting. A request for
a public meeting shall be in writing and shall indicate the interest of the
party and the reasons why a meeting is warranted. If the administrator finds that there is a
significant degree of public interest he may facilitate such a public
meeting. The DEQ/WQD will consider all
comments when making the final decision of issuance or denial of the permit and
this decision is appealable to the Wyoming Environmental Quality Council
(EQC). All comments must be received in
writing or fax copies of written comments by 5:00 pm on the date listed below. Comments received by email will not be
accepted.
All
Comments must be received by Thursday, November 17, 2011
This
facility(ies) is a coal bed methane facility in which groundwater is pumped
