Notice of Receipt of Application for Land Use Compatibility Determination for a Municipal Solid Waste Type IV Permit

Notice mailed on April 19, 2024 Proposed Permit No. 2421

Application. Chisholm Trail Disposal, LLC, has applied to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) for a separate land use compatibility determination for a Type IV Municipal Solid Waste Permit to authorize the construction of a Type IV Municipal solid waste landfill that will primarily receive construction and demolition wastes, brush, and rubbish from Wise and surrounding counties. The facility is located at 291 Private Road 4674, Aurora, Texas 76078 in Wise County, Texas. The TCEQ received the land use compatibility portion of the application on February 26, 2024. This application is available for viewing and copying at the Rhome Community Library, 265 West B.C. Rhome Avenue, Rhome, Texas 76078, and may be viewed online at https://biggsandmathews.com/on-line-documents/permits-v2/category/110-chisholm-trail=disposal-llc. The following link to an electronic map of the site or facility's general location is provided as a public courtesy and is not part of the application or notice: https://arcg.is/1aH1KW. For exact location, refer to application.

Additional Notice. The TCEQ Executive Director has determined that the land use compatibility portion of the application is administratively complete and will conduct a substantive review of this portion of the application. Following completion of that review, the TCEQ will make a separate determination on the question of land use compatibility. If the site is determined to be compatible with the surrounding land uses, the TCEQ may at another time consider conformity with other regulatory requirements. After completing the land use compatibility review, the TCEQ will issue a Notice of Application and Preliminary Decision. Notice of the Application and Preliminary Decision will be published and mailed to those who are on the county-wide mailing list and to those who are on the mailing list for this application. That notice will contain the deadline for submitting public comments.

Public Comment/Public Meeting. You may submit public comments or request a public meeting on this application. The purpose of a public meeting is to provide the opportunity to submit comments or to ask questions about the application. TCEQ will hold a public meeting if the Executive Director determines that there is a significant degree of public interest in the application or if requested by a local legislator. A public meeting is not a contested case hearing.

Opportunity for a Contested Case Hearing. After the deadline for submitting public comments, the Executive Director will consider all timely comments and prepare a response to all relevant and material, or significant public comments. Unless the application is directly referred for a contested case hearing, the response to comments, and the Executive Director's decision on the application, will be mailed to everyone who submitted public comments and to those persons who are on the mailing list for this application. If comments are received, the mailing will also provide instructions for requesting reconsideration of the Executive Director's decision and for requesting a contested case hearing. A person who may be affected by the facility is entitled to request a contested case hearing from the commission. A contested case hearing is a legal proceeding similar to a civil trial in state district court.

To Request a Contested Case Hearing, You Must Include The Following Items in Your Request: your name, address, phone number; applicant's name and permit number; the location and distance of your property/activities relative to the facility; a specific description of how you would be adversely affected by the facility in a way not common to the general public; a list of all disputed issues of fact that you submit during the comment period, and the statement "[I/we] request a contested case hearing." If the request for contested case hearing is filed on behalf of a group or association, the request must designate the group's representative for receiving future correspondence; identify by name and physical address an individual member of the group who would be adversely affected by the facility or activity; provide the information discussed above regarding the affected member's location and distance from the facility or activity; explain how and why the member would be affected; and explain how the interests the group seeks to protect are relevant to the group's purpose.

Following the close of all applicable comment and request periods, the Executive Director will forward the application and any requests for reconsideration or for a contested case hearing to the TCEQ Commissioners for their consideration at a scheduled Commission meeting. The Commission may only grant a request for a contested case hearing on issues the requestor submitted in their timely comments that were not subsequently withdrawn.

NOTICE OF APPLICATION AND PRELIMINARY DECISION FOR TPDES PERMIT FOR MUNICIPAL WASTEWATER STAFF-INITIATED MINOR AMENDMENT AND NOTICE OF A NEW PRETREATMENT PROGRAM

PROPOSED PERMIT NO. WQ0010201001

APPLICATION AND PRELIMINARY DECISION. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has initiated a minor amendment of the Texas Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (TPDES) Permit No. WQ0010201001 issued to the City of Kilgore, 815 North Kilgore Street, Kilgore, Texas 75662, to authorize the approval of a new pretreatment program. The existing permit authorizes the discharge of treated domestic wastewater at an annual average flow not to exceed 6,000,000 gallons per day. The applicant has applied to the TCEQ for approval of its new pretreatment program under the TPDES program. Approval of the request for pretreatment program authority and the new pretreatment program will authorize the applicant to implement the legal authority, technically based local limits, enforcement response plan/enforcement response guide, standard operating procedures (including forms), and all required Streamlining Rule provisions, to regulate the discharge of pollutants by industrial users into its treatment works facilities, to perform inspections, surveillance, and monitoring, to determine compliance with applicable pretreatment standards and requirements, and to enforce against noncompliant industrial users. The request for approval complies with both federal and State requirements. The new pretreatment program will be approved without change if no substantive comments are received within 30 days of notice publication. The following treatment work facilities will be subject to the requirements of the new pretreatment program: TPDES Permit Nos. WQ0010201001. The facility is located at 2701 Angeline Street, Kilgore, in Gregg County, Texas 75662. The treated effluent is discharged via pipe to Rabbit Creek, thence to the Sabine River Above Toledo Bend Reservoir in Segment No. 0505 of the Sabine River Basin. The unclassified receiving water use is intermediate aquatic life use for Rabbit Creek. The designated uses for Segment No. 0505 are primary contact recreation, public water supply, and high aquatic life use.

Correction of Error

The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) proposed amendments to 26 TAC §746.501 in the April 19, 2024, issue of the Texas Register (49 TexReg 2386). Due to an error by the Texas Register, the section number for 26 TAC §746.501 was omitted from two sentences in the first and fourth paragraphs of the preamble for the adopted rulemaking. The corrected sentences are as follows:

The Executive Commissioner of the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) proposes amendments to §746.405, concerning What telephone numbers must I post and where must I post them; §746.501, concerning What written operational policies must I have; §746.1317, concerning Must the training for my caregivers and the director meet certain criteria; and §746.4101, concerning Who may I release children to; and new §746.521, concerning What rights does a parent of a child in care of my child-care center have, in Texas Administrative Code, Title 26, Chapter 746, Minimum Standards for Child-Care Centers.

The proposed amendment to §746.501 (1) adds a requirement that a child-care center include, in its written operational policies, procedures that address parent rights that are consistent with rules in new Division 5 of Subchapter B; (2) removes operational policy requirements that have been moved to new Division 5; (3) reorganizes a paragraph in the rule to consolidate information and improve readability; and (4) renumbers paragraphs in the rule accordingly.
