The proposed action is to reissue an existing State/NPDES permit for an existing facility. The existing facility is a three-cell wastewater stabilization lagoon system with a minimum of 120 days detention time. The facility receives domestic wastewater from residential and commercial areas. The proposed permit contains limits for Biochemical Oxygen Demand, Total Suspended Solids, and Ammonia; as well as monitoring for pH, E. coli, and Total Phosphorus. This NPDES discharging lagoon wastewater treatment facility has been reviewed for eligibility for the MDV for ammonia and has been determined to be eligible. Eligibility was determined through analysis of the facility’s highest attainable criteria (HAC) for ammonia. The ammonia effluent limit was determined on March 3, 2023 by calculating the 99th percentile ammonia value from the facility’s discharge monitoring reports resulting in an ammonia limit of 4.8 mg/L for this facility. However, due to anti-backsliding, the ammonia limit of 4.5 will be applied.

The proposed action is to issue a new State/NPDES permit for a new facility. This facility is a groundwater extraction and treatment system installed to control and remediate the carbon tetrachloride contamination associated with Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC)/USDA’s former facility. Groundwater is pumped from three (3) extraction wells and conveyed to the treatment system via underground piping. The carbon tetrachloride will be removed from the extracted groundwater by an air stripper with tray aeration. Treated groundwater will then be conveyed through underground piping to an outfall structure. Treated water will be surface discharged to Turner Creek via Outfall 001A. The extraction wells are expected to produce a total of approximately six gallons per minute (gpm); the air stripper is designed to be capable of treating the contaminated groundwater at a slightly higher rate. The proposed permit contains limits for Carbon Tetrachloride and pH, as well as monitoring for Flow, Arsenic, Selenium, Total Phosphorus, Sulfate, and Nitrate. In compliance with Kansas and federal law, KDHE has approved an antidegradation review for this new facility for increased concentrations and mass of some pollutants to the receiving stream. The water quality of the receiving stream will not be lowered below the quality necessary to support existing designated uses.

An application has been filed with the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) for an aquifer remediation project which includes the use of injection wells INJ01, INJ02, and INJ03. Iuka, Kansas is located along U.S. Highway 281, approximately 6 miles north of Pratt, Kansas. The Kanza Cooperative Association is located in the extreme southern portion of the City of Iuka and was a grain storage facility. Carbon tetrachloride was first discovered in the groundwater at the site (previously known as the Iuka Cooperative Exchange) in December 1996. On December 14, 1998, the Iuka Coop entered the site into the Voluntary Cleanup and Property Redevelopment Program (VCPRP) under Voluntary Agreement No. 98VCP0031. Under the VCRP, the permittee withdraws contaminated groundwater, treats the groundwater using a granulated activated carbon (GAC) adsorption system, and is authorized to inject treated groundwater into the Quaternary alluvial aquifer. The proposed permit contains limits for Maximum Daily Wellhead Injection Pressure, Maximum Weekly Injection Volume, pH, Nitrate, and Carbon Tetrachloride.
