The Department of Environmental Protection Friday announced it has extended the public comment period on the Permit Decision Guarantee Policy as part of its annual review to December 31, according to Hayley Book, DEP Director of Policy.
Following the comment period, a comment response document and an annual report will be drafted detailing implementation highlights in the first year, as well as any changes made to the policy and associated permits as a result of internal and external comments.
Details on where comments can be submitted on the final policy will be provided when the technical guidance is published on October 26 in the PA Bulletin.
A copy of the policy is available online.
Written comments should be submitted to me by email to: hbook@pa.gov, by telephone at 717-783-8727, or by mail at 400 Market Street, Harrisburg PA, 17101.
