The Department of Environmental Protection will be holding a public meeting on May 21 to take questions from residents about a proposal from FirstEnergy Generation LLC to modify the permit for the Coal Combustion Landfill located at the company’s Hatfield’s Ferry Power Station in Monongahela Township, Greene County.
The meeting will be held from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at the Carmichaels Junior-Senior High School Auditorium, 300 West Greene Street, Carmichaels, PA.
This will be an open question and answer format with representatives from DEP and FirstEnergy taking questions on the proposal and the process for permit modification being requested by the company.
FirstEnergy is proposing a modification to its solid waste permit for the Hatfield’s Ferry Coal Combustion Byproduct landfill, to allow the landfill to dispose of CCB from the company’s Bruce Mansfield Power Station in Beaver County.
The Hatfield’s Ferry Landfill has not been used since the Hatfield’s Ferry Power Station was shut down last year.
In addition to the public meeting, DEP’s Southwest Region Waste Management Program will be taking written comments and questions until June 2. Those may be addressed to Waste Management Program Manager, 400 Waterfront Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15222.
