The Department has made a tentative determination to modify an existing State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (SPDES) permit for the facility known as BAE Systems Aerospace Inc., Advanced Systems, formerly known as Hazeltine Corp. and Marconi Aerospace Systems Inc. (DEC No. 1-4726-00091/00001). This permit covers multiple outfalls discharging to groundwater. These discharges include a variable amount of sanitary wastewater, stormwater runoff and non-contact cooling water from four additional outfalls to an unnamed pond, and stormwater and non-contact cooling water from seven outfalls to groundwater. The modification involves the elimination of sampling and monitoring requirements for several organic compounds which are no longer produced due to the cessation of most industrial activity at the facility. The site is located in Calverton, Town of Riverhead.
