TEXAS COMMISSION ON ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY
NOTICE OF RECEIPT OF APPLICATION AND
INTENT TO OBTAIN WATER QUALITY PERMIT RENEWAL
PERMIT NO. WQoo1o78aoo4
APPLICATION. City of Huntsville, 1212 Avenue M, Huntsville, Texas 77340, has
applied to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) to renew Texas
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (TPDES) Permit No. WQoo1o781004 (EPA I.D.
No. TX0116572) to authorize the discharge of treated wastewater at a volume not to
exceed an annual average flow of 2,500,000 gallons per day. The domestic wastewater
treatment facility is located on Farm -to -Market Road 1374, approximately 4 miles south
of the intersection of Interstate Highway 45 and Farm -to -Market Road 1374 in Walker
County, Texas 77340. The discharge route is from the plant site to Robinson Creek;
thence to the West Fork San Jacinto River; thence to Lake Conroe. TCEQ received this
application on November 28, 2011. The permit application is available for viewing and
copying at the City of Huntsville -Department of Public Utilities, City Service Center, 448
State Highway 15 North, Huntsville, Texas. This link to an electronic map of the site or
facility's general location is provided as a public courtesy and not part of the application
or notice. For exact location, refer to application.

95.592222&zoom=13&type=r
ADDITIONAL NOTICE. TCEQ's Executive Director has determined the application
is administratively complete and will conduct a technical review of the application. After
technical review of the application is complete, the Executive Director may prepare a
draft permit and will issue a preliminary decision on the application. Notice of the
Application and Preliminary Decision will be published and mailed to those
who are on the county -wide mailing list and to those who are on the mailing
list for this application. That notice will contain the deadline for submitting
public comments.
PUBLIC COMMENT / PUBLIC MEETING. You may submit public
comments or request a public meeting on this application. The purpose of a
public meeting is to provide the opportunity to sub -mit comments or to ask questions
about the application. TCEQ will hold a public meeting if the Executive Director
determines that there is a significant degree of public interest in the application or if
requested by a local legislator. A public meeting is not a contested case hearing.
OPPORTUNITY FORA CONTESTED CASE HEARING. After the deadline for
submitting public comments, the Executive Director will consider all timely comments
and prepare a response to all relevant and material, or significant public comments.
Unless the application is directly referred for a contested case hearing, the
response to comments, and the Executive Director's decision on the
application, will be mailed to everyone who submitted public comments and
to those persons who are on the mailing list for this application. If
comments are received, the mailing will also provide instructions for
requesting reconsideration of the Executive Director's decision and for
requesting a contested case hearing. A contested case hearing is a legal proceeding
similar to a civil trial in state district court.
TO REQUEST A CONTESTED CASE HEARING, YOU MUST INCLUDE THE
FOLLOWING ITEMS IN YOUR REQUEST: your name, address, phone
number; applicant's name and proposed permit number; the location and
distance of your property/activities relative to the proposed facility; a
specific description of how you would be adversely affected by the facility in
a way not common to the general public; and, the statement "[I/we] request
a contested case hearing." If the request for contested case hearing is filed
on behalf of a group or association, the request must designate the group's
representative for receiving future correspondence; identify an individual
member of the group who would be adversely affected by the proposed
facility or activity; provide the information discussed above regarding the
affected member's location and distance from the facility or activity;
explain how and why the member would be affected; and explain how the
interests the group seeks to protect are relevant to the group's purpose.
Following the close of all applicable comment and request periods, the Executive
Director will forward the application and any requests for reconsideration or for a
contested case hearing to the TCEQ Commissioners for their consideration at a
scheduled Commission meeting.
The Commission will only grant a contested case hearing on disputed issues of fact that
are relevant and material to the Commission's decision on the application. Further, the
Commission will only grant a hearing on issues that were raised in timely filed
comments that were not subsequently withdrawn. TCEQ may act on an application
to renew a permit for discharge of wastewater without providing an
opportunity for a contested case hearing if certain criteria are met.
MAILING LIST. If you submit public comments, a request for a contested case
hearing or a reconsideration of the Executive Director's decision, you will be added to
the mailing list for this specific application to receive future public notices mailed by the
Office of the Chief Clerk. In addition, you may request to be placed on: (i) the
permanent mailing list for a specific applicant name and permit number; and/or (2) the
mailing list for a specific county. If you wish to be placed on the permanent and/or the
county mailing list, clearly specify which list(s) and send your request to TCEQ Office of
the Chief Clerk at the address below.
AGENCY -CONTACTS AND INFORMATION. All written public comments
and requests must be submitted to the Office of the Chief Clerk, MC 105,
TCEQ, P.O. Box 13087, Austin, TX 78711-3087 or electronically at
www.tceq.state.tx.us/about/comments.html. If you need more information

Education Program, Toll Free, at 1-800-687-4040. Si desea information en Espanol,
