Requirements For Clean Water Act Hazardous Substance Spill Prevention

0

WASHINGTON U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Andrew Wheeler signed a final action establishing no new regulatory requirements under the Clean Water Act (CWA) section 311(j)(1)(C) authority for hazardous substance discharge prevention.

“EPA’s analysis concluded that current requirements for hazardous substance discharge prevention are protective of human health and the environment and, therefore, additional requirements are unnecessary,” said EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler. “Protection of our nation’s waterways is a top priority for EPA, and we will continue to use our many programs and tools to protect and respond to threats in our waterways.”

During the 40 years since CWA section 311(j)(1)(C) was enacted by Congress, many EPA statutory and regulatory requirements have been established to prevent and address CWA hazardous substance discharges. Based on a review of the existing EPA programs along with the frequency and impacts of reported CWA hazardous substance discharges, the agency determined the existing EPA regulatory framework meets the requirements of CWA section 311(j)(1)(C) and is serving to prevent, contain, and mitigate CWA hazardous substance discharges.

This final action complies with a consent decree addressing CWA section 311(j)(1)(C) and is based on public comment regarding EPA’s proposed approach.

INDOT Is Amending Its STIP And Seeks Public Comment On Amendment 20-05

0
Amendment 20-05 may be viewed online via the STIP web page at https://www.in.gov/indot/3132.htm.

Public comments regarding Amendment 20-05 will be accepted through Friday, August 30, 2019 and can be submitted via the public comment form located on the STIP amendment page.

What is an Amendment?

Periodically, changes are made to a project’s scope, cost and/or year of proposed construction.  When these changes occur, they are evaluated to determine if the change requires an amendment or an administrative modification to the STIP.

Major changes to the STIP require an amendment.  Examples of a major change would be:

  • Adding a new project that was not included in the current STIP
  • Adding a new phase of a project not currently included in the STIP (preliminary engineering, right-of-way acquisition, construction)
  • A significant increase or decrease in project cost
  • A change in project scope

What is an Administrative Modification?

Minor changes to the STIP require an administration modification, examples of a minor change would be:

  • A designation number change (this identifies what year the project was accepted into the production schedule)
  • A change in project schedule whereas the timing of activities is modified to occur within an adjusted timeframe (within the 4 year funding period)

Amendments to the STIP require FHWA and FTA approval, administrative modifications do not.

Why is this Important?

The STIP must be fiscally constrained.  Only projects for which construction and operating funds can reasonably be expected to be available are included.  If a project is not included in a STIP, it is not eligible to receive federal funding.  As modifications and amendments occur, fiscal constraint must be maintained.

Public Input

INDOT welcomes public input regarding draft amendments to the FY 2020 thru 2024 STIP.  The draft amendments are posted to a public comment web page https://www.in.gov/indot/3132.htm for a minimum period of 7 days (may be extended in some cases).  The public is encouraged to review draft amendments and offer comment.

Generally, draft amendments are posted monthly and typically during the 3rd week of each month.  Draft amendments may be reviewed by visiting https://www.in.gov/indot/3132.htm.

Once an amendment is approved, the STIP is updated accordingly.

 

State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP)

The State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) is Indiana’s four year transportation planning and construction document listing projects (and phases) expected to be federally funded within a four year period.  State funded and regionally significant projects are also included as the STIP includes investment in various modes including highways, transit, pedestrian trails/paths and bicycle facilities. The current STIP was approved by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) earlier this summer and covers fiscal years 2020 thru 2024.

While the STIP lists federally funded projects within a four year period, it also includes a listing of projects under an additional fifth year, however projects listed under this additional year, are not funded projects, but rather are included for informational and future planning purposes.

Karlee Macer Says No To A Run For Governor

Karlee Macer Says No To A Run For Governor

August 20, 2019  

Staff Report
TheStatehouseFile.com

INDIANAPOLIS—One potential Democratic candidate for governor is already out just as the race is getting started.

Rep. Karlee Macer of Indianapolis released a statement Tuesday saying, “While I stand ready to roll my sleeves up and show our state what it means to be a Democrat, I will not be doing so in a bid for governor.”

Macer is among three Democrats who were exploring bids to challenge incumbent Republican Gov. Eric Holcomb in the 2020 election. Dr. Woody Myers, the state’s former health commissioner, was the first to formally enter the race when he announced in July that he is running. Sen. Eddie Melton of Gary has been touring the state since late spring meeting with Hoosiers as he explores a possible run.

“In every corner of our state, there are leaders stepping up to fight for Hoosiers and their families and I’m always ready to work with those who seek to move Indiana forward,” Macer said.

Macer has served in the Indiana House since 2013 and in the most recent legislative session joined Republicans in co-authoring House Enrolled Act 1010, which exempts military pensions from state income taxes.

She said that she will work for Democrats seeking political office across the state.

“I look forward to supporting those stepping up to make change in our cities, correcting the harmful path the Republican Supermajority have led us down, and taking on some of the most crucial Federal policies in our lifetime,” she added.

Holcomb formally announced in July that he is running for re-election. At the end of August, his campaign is sponsoring a fundraiser at the Dallara IndyCar Factory in Speedway where a VIP reception costs $2,500 a couple, early arrival is $250 per person and general admission is $50 each.

It’s a uniquely beautiful experience!

The Franklin Street Bazaar operates every Saturday 9a-1p, May 25th through August 31st.

Gov. Holcomb Announces Director of Office of Administrative Law Proceedings

0

Gov. Eric J. Holcomb today announced Matthew A. Brown will serve as director of the Office of Administrative Law Proceedings.

 

HEA 1223, signed into law by Gov. Holcomb earlier this year, establishes the Office of Administrative Law Proceedings within the State Personnel Department (SPD) to further ensure Administrative Law Judges independence and deliver efficient service to Hoosiers.

 

An Administrative Law Judge resolves disputes between government agencies and the people affected by the decision of the agency. The legislation provides the director of the office is responsible for administering the office, hiring Administrative Law Judges and assigning the judges to proceedings.

 

Brown served in a variety of roles at the SPD from 2006 to 2012 and, after a stint in private practice, he returned to the department in 2014. Most recently, Brown has served as the deputy director of operations at SPD. Brown earned a Bachelor’s degree in public affairs from Indiana University and a law degree from the Indiana University McKinney School of Law.

 

The Office of Administrative Law Proceedings was established upon passage of the bill, and Brown will start his new role on Sept. 1.

Obituary Of Donald George Heberer

0

On August 16, 2019 our family, and the world, lost one of its most gentle, kind and patient souls…we suppose living with four women will make THAT man; although we know God had his hand in everything!!  Heaven has truly gained one of their angels on earth.

Donald George Heberer was born on February 6, 1943, to Albert and Vivian (Goodman) Heberer.  He is survived by his loving wife of 54 and 11/12th years, Judy (Lang) Heberer; daughters, Donise Stahl (Tad), Donell Heberer Walton (Jeff Graham) and Donett May (Eric); grandchildren, Kacy Stahl (Sarah), Katy Stahl, Maddie Stahl, Ben Stahl, Austin Walton, Lindsey (Walton) Word (Mike), Hillary May, Ellen May and Jackson May; great-grandchildren, Finnley Stahl, Jace Word and Cole Word. To these, he gave his gifts of love and faith and his prayer has been answered that all his family has survived him.

Donnie spent his earliest years in Evansville, moving to St. Phillips when he was in grade school.  He attended and graduated from Mt. Vernon Sr. High School in 1961 as a member of the first class to walk down the hill from the old high school, to the new.  He moved to Mt. Vernon after high school when he and Judy married in 1964 and graduated from the University of Evansville in 1978.

He was a proud and loving son of Vivian and his 7 siblings. His mother and 5 siblings, Jerry Heberer, Carol Martin, Sandy McNeely, Larry Heberer and Denny LaChance were waiting for him with open arms, welcoming hugs, many stories, a few songs and loads of happy sarcasm!  Surviving siblings, Marsha Ricketts (Benny), Tom LaChance (Sheila), brother-in-law, Bill Lang (Ruth Ann) and sister-in-law, Mary Ann (Lang) Fuelling (Steve); and many, many, many, nieces and nephews.

Donnie loved spending time with his family!  He also loved Elvis, the St. Louis Cardinals, Evansville Aces and IU basketball.  He loved tinkering in his shop, the outdoors, camping, fishing, boating, skiing, music, singing and dancing. If you were lucky enough to have spent an evening on the dance floor with him, you were probably schooled by his dance moves.  He was a member and past President of Trinity United Church of Christ, Posey County Ski Club, Mt. Vernon Boat Club, Babcock & Wilcox Management Club, and served as Inner Guard of the Benevolent and Protective Order of the Elks Lodge #277.  He had an incredible journey through life, was loved dearly by so many, and is now at peace with our Lord.

A Memorial Service will be held at 4:00 pm on Saturday, September 7, 2019 at Trinity United Church of Christ with a Celebration of Life to be held immediately following at the Mt. Vernon Elks.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Trinity United Church of Christ or the Benevolent Order of the Elks Lodge #277.ald
