Christie;
I, and the water consultant for the Canton Water Treatment Plant, discussed
this matter some time ago, and I remember filling out the cover form with our
comments. I do apoligize for the extended delay for replying.
We concur with the issuance of the Bethel School NPDES permit discharge #
0067351. The only comment that we would make is that an outfall should be
extended from The Town of Canton on the future to allow the wastes to be sent
to the Canton Wastewater System.
Lorna, The Water Quality Section had sent this permit request out. You
advised me that you had not recieved a request to log and send to me. You may
want to check it out.
