Project Description:

The permittee submitted an application for a State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (SPDES) permit modification, along with an engineering report for upgrade of the Middletown wastewater treatment plant (WWTP), on August 12, 2005. The SPDES permit was modified and published several times since the original application, prior to final issuance. This notice is being run to describe yet another modification to the permit, as requested by the permittee, prior to final permit issuance.
