On October 7, the Department of Environmental Protection announced it has postponed the October 21 public hearing regarding the Broad Mountain Wind Project in Carbon County due to ongoing construction at Weatherly Area Elementary/Middle School, the original location. DEP is working to secure another date and location for the hearing. The hearing was to take testimony regarding Broad Mountain Power, LLC’s application for a National Pollutant Discharge and Elimination System (NPDES) permit to construct 21 windmills on Broad Mountain in Nesquehoning Borough and Packer Township. The NPDES permit is required for stormwater discharges associated with the proposed construction activities. DEP will announce a new public hearing at a later date. Public comments will continue to be accepted and a new deadline for written comments will be determined when the date of the public hearing is set. To submit written comment, contact Colleen Connolly, Community Relations Coordinator, DEP Northeast Regional Office, by sending email to: coconnolly@pa.gov or call the DEP Northeast Regional Office at 570-826-2035.
