 The Department of Environmental Protection will conduct a public meeting at 6:30 p.m. and a public hearing at 8:00 p.m. on Monday, December 16, 2013 at the Elysburg Fire Co. #1 located at 1 East Mill St. in Elysburg, PA (Ralpho Twp.). The purpose of the meeting/hearing is to discuss the current NPDES individual CAFO permit (PA0233544) application submitted by Joel D. Knoebel of 110 Center School Road, Elysburg PA for existing swine operation with underbarn manure storage which is located in the Mugser Run (HQ-CWF) watershed. This facility houses approximately 4,360 (560.23 AEUs) swine (wean to finish) in Cleveland Township, Columbia County.

 Staff from DEP's Clean Water Program will explain the application review process and applicable regulations, and the applicant will explain his CAFO swine operation with the audience. These presentations will be followed by a question and answer session with the local community.

 Cleveland Pork submitted an individual NPDES CAFO permit application (PA0233544) to the department on September 27, 2013, for the existing finishing swine operation and associated underbarn manure storage site located in Cleveland Township, Columbia County. The facility consists of an existing swine barn that houses 4,360 hogs with an underbarn manure pit (458'x80'x6') having a total storage capacity of 1,486,000 gallons.

 The public meeting will be followed by a DEP public hearing beginning 8:00 p.m. during which time citizens will have an opportunity to present oral testimony regarding the proposed NPDES permit application. Anyone who wishes to present oral testimony during the public hearing may register that evening prior to the hearing. Citizens will have a maximum of five minutes each to present testimony. Written testimony of any length also will be accepted. The testimony will be recorded by a court reporter and transcribed into a written document. DEP will respond in writing to all relevant testimony provided during the public hearing at the time a final permit decision is made.

 Persons interested in obtaining further information, requesting a copy of each fact sheet prepared under 92a.53, and inspect and copy NPDES forms and related documents should contact the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, Clean Water Program, 208 West Third St., Suite 101, Williamsport, Pa. 17701.
