=NYIRONV.ENTAlAi= 'I'"S

Dear Mr. Leskovjan:

Enclosed is the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit modification for the above>>referenced facility.

This action constitutes the Environmental Protection Agency's final permit modification decision in.accordance with Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Section 124.15(a).

The permit modification, will become effective as specified, provided that no timely request for an evidentiary hearing is received by the Agency.

Any interested person may contest. this decision by submitting a timely request for an evidentiary hearing pursuant to the procedures at 40 CFR 5 124.74.

If a request for a hearing is received by the Agency, following review, a determination will be made and the requester advised of the Agency's decision on the request.

Until that time, please be advised that any request will render" the permit ineffective pursuant, to 40 CPR 5 124.15.(b).

For a new source, a new discharger<

a recommencing discharger, or a facility for which an untimely permit renewal application was submitted, a hearing request renders the facility without an NPDES permit and the facility may not discharge (unless relief is granted by the Presiding Officer under 40 CFR 5 124.60(a)).

Xf the evidentiary hearing request is granted, in whole or part, to an existing source, the. effect of the contested provision(s),

and any other conditions not severable from those conditions, will be stayed and not subject to judicial review pending final Agency action.

In this case, all provisions of the prior permit, as well as, all uncontested provisions of the reissued permit ~hall continue fully enforceable and effective pending fi.nal Agency action on the permit appeal.

See 40 CFR 5 124.60.

HOV-81-1994 14: 47 FROM FPLiENV AFFA1RS TO 8-4654898 P.84 To request an evidentiary hearing under 40 CFR 5 124.74, you must submit an original and two copies of the request to the Regional Hearing Clerk at the letterhea'd address within thirty

{30) days from service of this notice.

A copy of the procedures and requirements for evidentiary hearing requests and appeals to the Achninistrator is enclosed.

For purposes of judicial review under the Clean Hater Act, 33 U.S.C.

5 1251 et

~se., final Agency action on a permit does not occur unless and until a party has exhausted its administrate.ve remedies as required by 40 CFR Part 124.

Further information on procedures pertaining to the filing of an evidentiary hearing request or other legal matters may be obtained by contacting Ms.

Gwen Eason, Assistant Regional Counsel,'t

1) Changes to permit from draft permit to final permit stage:

Page I-ll of the modification has been corrected to show the correct schedule of compliance.

2) Public Comments.

Comments were received from Florida Power

& Light Co. on September 26, 1994.

Comments and.responses are as follows:

Comment The proposed effective date of the permit is listed as January 1,

1995.

Assuming that an acceptable permit'an be obtained by PPL by the October 18, 1994, issuance date shown on Page 2

of the Fact Sheet, FPL will waive its right to an evidentiary hearing on this matter and request that the permit modification be. effective on November 1, 1994.

Response

The issuance date for this modification will not be October 18, 1994, but rather a few days later.

However, on October 19,

1994, we received a letter stating that Florid~ Power Light Company waives all rights to an evidentiary hearing for the permit modification.

With the evidentiary hearing waived, EPA will make the effective date of this modification November 1,

1994.

Comment.

Page I-10, Part

Include the flow data to be collected under footnote t'3] so that, after four valid tests have been completed, assuming that the oil and grease data will yield favorable results, the flow monitoring requirement can be deleted or modified along with the oil and grease. monitoiing requirements.

TO 8-46S4898 P.86 Responsec ln order to maintain this discharge point and effectively enforce the other requirements for this discharge, the flow parameter needs to remain.

Comment:
