Notice of Tentative Determination and Opportunity for Public Hearing

In accordance with Sections 1-601, 1-602, and 1-604 of the Environment Article, Annotated Code of Maryland, the Maryland Department of the Environment, Solid Waste Program (MDE/SWP) has made a Tentative Determination to approve a Groundwater Discharge Permit Renewal Application submitted by the Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services. The application is for the continued discharge of wastewater generated by rainwater percolating through the rubble cell floor of the closed Amcelle Rubble Landfill into groundwater via infiltration/percolation. This landfill is located at 12501 Arnel Avenue, Cumberland, Allegany County, Maryland 21502. The current permit requires the semi-annual monitoring of the groundwater for metals and organic compounds. The proposed permit allows MDE/SWP to set and maintain requirements for the continued monitoring of groundwater quality at the closed rubble landfill and does not authorize an expansion or other change to the facility.

Per MD Environmental Article §1-601.1, an EJ score was calculated for this facility. The EJ Score is 47.3. This score has been calculated considering a combination of the following factors: Pollution Burden Exposure Percentile, Pollution Burden Environmental Effects Percentile, and Sensitive Population Percentile. For more information on how the score was calculated, launch the MDEnviroScreen tool from this website: https://mde.maryland.gov/Environmental_Justice/Pages/MDEnviroScreen.aspx

A Public Hearing will be held on the MDE/SWP’s Tentative Determination on this permit application if a written request is received on or before May 5, 2026. The request should indicate the name, address, and daytime telephone number of the person making the request, the name of any party whom the person making the request may represent, and the name of the facility. Any written comments concerning the Tentative Determination must be received by the close of business on May 15, 2026. Requests for a Public Hearing or written comments should be sent to Rick Kessler, Director, Land and Materials Administration, 1800 Washington Boulevard, Suite 610, Baltimore, Maryland 21230. The MDE/SWP will provide language translation services and/or an interpreter for the deaf or hearing-impaired persons provided that a request is made for such service at least five (5) days prior to the meeting.
The application, supporting documents, and draft permit will be available for review after April 14, 2026, at the Allegany County Public Library located at 100 Seymour Street, Cumberland, Maryland 21502, at MDE/SWP by appointment, and on the MDE/SWP website: https://mde.maryland.gov/programs/LAND/SolidWaste/Pages/index.aspx.

For further information regarding this notice, to schedule an appointment to review the application, or to request an interpreter, please contact Sara Haile at (410) 537-3315 or sara.haile@maryland.gov.

MARYLAND DEPARTMENT OF THE ENVIRONMENT Water and Science Administration PRELIMINARY DECISION TO GRANT CATEGORICAL EXCLUSION (CE #627) Project Name/Number: Flintstone WWTP Upgrade WQBL/PF-1085-01L, SWQH 63.01, FMG 02.01 Project Applicant: Allegany County Commissioners Project Location/County: Flintstone, Allegany County Total Project Cost/Grant/Loan: $3,683,000 / $1,875,00 / $1,808,000 Project Description: The proposed project includes the planning, design, and construction of an upgrade of the 0.045 MGD Flintstone Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) in Allegany County to improve the plant’s reliability, meet the plant’s new ammonia limits, and mitigate existing flood issues at the plant. The existing WWTP was constructed in 1980 and several key components of the plant are reaching their useful life. The existing steel tanks are failing and the plant struggles with issues related to flooding and electrical reliability. The upgrade at the plant includes the construction of new aeration basins, clarifiers, post-aeration basin, UV disinfection system, influent pumping station, influent grinder, and other ancillary upgrades and improvements. The upgrade also includes moving the plant to an adjacent lot where critical infrastructure can be built out of the 100-year floodplain. The Allegany County Commissioners have applied for financial assistance from the Maryland Department of the Environment's State Revolving Loan Fund for the proposed project as described above. In accordance with requirements for complying with the State Environmental Review Process (SERP) under COMAR 26.03.11 for such assistance, a review has been performed by the Department on the applicant’s request for a Categorical Exclusion from a comprehensive environmental review under SERP. The Department has determined that the proposed project qualifies for a Categorical Exclusion pursuant to COMAR 26.03.11.04 because the project constitutes functional replacement of equipment or structures. This determination is based on a careful review of the supporting documentation provided by the applicant and other documents available to the Department. In concert with this preliminary determination, the Department has also found the project to be consistent with the Maryland Economic Growth, Resource Protection, and Planning Policy in accordance with Executive Order 01.01.1992.27, and Maryland’s Smart Growth and Neighborhood Conservation Policy, in accordance with Executive Order 01.01.1998.04. As a result of the above determination, the applicant will not need to prepare and/or finalize an Environmental Information Document, and the Department is prepared to approve the applicant's request for financial assistance without further environmental review. Comments supporting or disagreeing with the above preliminary decision may be submitted for consideration by writing to: Rajiv Chawla, Division Chief Region I Project Management Division Engineering and Capital Projects Program Maryland Department of the Environment 1800 Washington Boulevard Baltimore, Maryland 21230 After evaluating any comments received, the Department will make a final decision no sooner than 20 calendar days from the date of this notice. No administrative action will be taken with respect to this proposal during this timeframe.
