Dear Mr. Stello:

Attached for your review is a dxaft copy of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit we propose to issue. Please coordinate your review with Mr. Charles H. Kaplan.

Prior to the EPA issuing NPDES permits and in accordance with the provisions of Section 401 of the Federal Mater Pollution Control Act (33 USC 1341), as amended, the State must either certify or waive the certifi-cation requirement. The State may also deny certification, whereupon issuance of the NPDES permit will be denied by the EPA. Therefore, State certification of this permit has been requested, The following schedule is proposed for issuance:

ACTION DATE Draft permit to State for comment and certification March 7, 1978 Draft permit to applicant and iNRC March 7, 1978 Comments due March 24, 1978 To public notice April 13, 1978 End of public notice comment period iMay 15, 1978 State certification ~iIay 28, 1978 Issue iNPDES permit June 15, 1978 QgO 5

The permittee is expected to submit th'ermal and biological data in the very near future which will allow a determination relative to require-ments of Section 316(a) of the FMPCA, as amended, and conditions relative to discharge serial number 001 prior to public notice. Such material will be foxwaxded to you as soon as it is received.
