The NYSDEC has prepared a Draft SPDES permit (NY-0033154) and has made a tentative determination to approve an application by the New York State Department of Correctional Services to upgrade the wastewater treatment plant at their Otisville Correctional Facility. They propose to increase the design flow of the existing treatment plant from 150,000 gallons per day to 250,000 gallons per day as required by a Consent Order with NYSDEC. The upgrade will take about a year to be completed and will involve the construction of two new 30-foot diameter secondary clarifiers, an enclosed rapid sand filter system and various other improvements, located inside or adjacent to the existing wastewater treatment plant. The treated effluent will continue to be discharged to a ditch (Class D) that is tributary to the Shawangunk Kill, but the SPDES permit will require stricter effluent limits after the improvements are completed. The purpose of this expansion is to allow the plant to adequately treat the current wastewater flows generated by the existing prison, which sometimes exceeds the capacity of the existing plant. The facility is located on Sanitorium Road in the Town of Mt. Hope, Orange County, New York.

A copy of the draft permit is available from the contact person listed at the end of this Notice.

The NYS DEC has made a tentative determination to approve an application for a permit modification to increase the authorized flow of backwash water from the Village of Nyack Water Filtration Plant into the Hackensack River from 78,000 gallons per day to 140,000 gallons per day. This request is based upon actual operation of the system during an initial "start-up" period for the plant following its approved change from a recycling process to improve efficiency and performance. The backwash water will be discharged from the plant to a treatment lagoon and then into the Hackensack River.

A draft permit containing effluent limitations and monitoring requirements has been prepared and is available for review.

Applicant has applied for a SPDES permit for 20 separate, subsurface sanitary system outfalls having a total design flow of approximately 17,500 gallons per day. These existing systems presently serve the Ukrainian Fraternal Association summer camp facility located on County Route 41, approximately one mile south of Glen Spey. This facility does not have a SPDES permit. The applicant is in the process of acquiring the property and intends to continue operation as a summer camp.
