The Department of Environmental Protection is inviting comments on a proposed Total Maximum Daily Load Plan for the Plum Creek subwatershed in Blair County.  (PA Bulletin, page 1423)

The PA Integrated Water Quality Monitoring and Assessment Report included stream segments impaired for aquatic life in the watershed. The impairments addressed by this document were caused by excessive siltation due to agriculture.

Comments are due April 12.  Questions should be directed to Michael Morris by sending an email to: senmichamorri@pa.gov.

Read the entire PA Bulletin notice for more information.  (PA Bulletin, page 1423)
