Executive Director's Response to Public Comment on Texas Commission on Environmental Quality General Permit Number TXG530000

The executive director of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (commission or TCEQ) files this Response to Public Comment on Texas Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit Number TXG530000. As required by Texas Water Code (TWC), §26.040(d) and 30 Texas Administrative Code (TAC) §205.3(e), before a general permit is issued, the executive director must prepare a response to all timely, relevant and material, or significant comments. The response must be made available to the public and filed with the Office of the Chief Clerk at least ten days before the commission considers the approval of the general permit. This response addresses all timely received public comments, whether or not withdrawn. No comments were received.

BACKGROUND

Introduction

The TCEQ adopted a general permit that authorizes discharges from on-site wastewater treatment systems from single family residences located within the San Jacinto River Basin in Harris County in the State of Texas that will expire five years from the date of its issuance. The executive director now proposes, with the reissuance and amendment of this proposed general permit, to continue to authorize these eligible discharges under TCEQ General Permit Number TXG530000. Consistent with 30 TAC §205.2, issuance of this permit is allowable, since the on-site wastewater treatment systems that serve qualifying residences would be similarly operated and discharge the same or similar type of waste. The general permit, if issued, would establish the same operating conditions and similar monitoring requirements for these facilities. These types of discharges are more appropriately regulated under a general permit based upon the requirements of 30 TAC §205.2(a)(5), insomuch as the TCEQ can readily enforce the general permit and can monitor compliance of the terms of the permit. The permit would establish monitoring, record keeping, and reporting requirements.

Procedural Background

The Office of the Chief Clerk received the permit file on February 22, 2008. In accordance with 30 TAC §205.3(a)(2), the Notice of Proposed Amendment of General Permit Authorizing the Discharge of Wastewater was published in the Texas Register on March 7, 2008 (33 TexReg 2062), and in the Houston Chronicle on March 3, 2008. Mailed notice was also provided in accordance with 30 TAC §205.3(b). The comment period ended on April 7, 2008. No comments were received.

Pursuant to Texas Water Code §54.016(d), the Petitioners then filed an application with the Commission for annexation of the Property into the District.

Notice of Intent to Perform Removal Action at the Process Instrumentation and Electrical (PIE) Proposed State Superfund Site, in Odessa, Ector County, Texas

The executive director of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ or commission) hereby issues public notice of intent to perform a removal action, as provided by Texas Health and Safety Code (THSC), §361.133, for the Process Instrumentation and Electrical (PIE) proposed state Superfund site (the site). The site, including all land, structures, appurtenances, and other improvements, is approximately one acre located at the northwest corner of Andrews Highway (Highway 385) and 48th Street adjacent to the City of Odessa, Ector County, Texas. The site also includes any areas where hazardous substances have come to be located as a result, either directly or indirectly, of releases of hazardous substances from the site.

The facility proposed for listing is located within the Oil, Gas and Construction, Inc. property and consists of a cinder block building where a chrome plating shop once operated. The site description may change as additional information is gathered on the sources and extent of contamination.

The site is located in a light commercial/residential area adjacent to the Odessa city limits. It is believed a chrome plating shop operated on the site between 1953 and 1962. The site is currently inactive. Chromium was detected in nearby wells above the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) National Primary Drinking Water Regulations Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) of 100 parts per billion (ppb). The volatile organic compounds 1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-DCA) and tetrachloroethene (PCE) were also detected above their MCLs of 5 ppb in some wells. Most residences are connected to city water; however, the TCEQ installed filtration systems and began monitoring contaminant concentrations on a regular basis in some residences that use private groundwater wells. To date, the TCEQ continues to monitor the groundwater contaminant plumes and maintain the filtration systems. The removal action will consist of connecting the residences whose drinking water wells have levels of 1,2-DCA, PCE and/or Chromium above the MCLs to a municipal drinking water source.

The site is proposed for listing under THSC, Chapter 361, Subchapter F. Providing an alternate drinking water source to the residences is an integral strategy to protect human health as well as beneficial for the future remediation and restoration of the contaminated groundwater. A removal can be completed without extensive investigation and planning and will achieve a significant cost reduction for the site.

A portion of the record for this site, including documents pertinent to the executive director's determination of eligibility, is available for review at the Ector County Public Library, 321 West 5th Street, Odessa, Texas, (432) 332-0633, during regular business hours. Copies of the complete public record file may be obtained during regular business hours at the commission's Records Management Center, Building E, First Floor, Records Customer Service, 12100 Park 35 Circle, Austin, Texas 78753, (800) 633-9363 or (512) 239-2920. Photocopying of file information is subject to payment of a fee. Parking for persons with disabilities is available on the east side of Building D, convenient to access ramps that are between Buildings D and E.

Correction of Error

The Department of State Health Services adopted new 25 TAC §289.256, concerning medical and veterinary use of radioactive material, in the January 9, 2009, issue of the Texas Register (34 TexReg 206). The new rule replaced old §289.256, which was repealed in the same issue. The new rule took effect January 18, 2009.

Two rule references to "(jj)(3)(B)(vii)" on page 219 are incorrect. The correct reference is "(jj)(1)(C)(ii)(VII)".

Concerning new §289.256(ff)(2)(B), page 219, column 1, the first part of subparagraph (B) should read "a physician who is an authorized user and who meets the requirements specified in subsections (jj) or (nn) and (jj)(1)(C)(ii)(VII) of this section,..."

Notice is given to the public of a petition for declaratory order with the Public Utility Commission of Texas on January 29, 2009.

Docket Style and Number: Joint Petition for Declaratory Order of Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC and United Electric Cooperative Services Regarding Service to Burleson Independent School District High School Number 2, Docket Number 36649.

The Application: Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC (Oncor) and United Electric Cooperative Services (United) filed with the Public Utility Commission of Texas (commission) a joint petition for declaratory order concerning the provision of retail electric delivery service to Burleson Independent School District (Burleson ISD) at the Main Building of its High School Number 2.

The issue presented for the commission is whether United is authorized to provide retail electric delivery service to the Main Building, which will straddle a certification boundary line. Burleson ISD requested United to provide retail electric service to the Main Building.
