FDEP ID: 021-2100-001. Title: Policy for Implementing the Department Permit Review Process and Permit Decision Guarantee. Description: On July 24, 2012, Governor Corbett signed Executive Order 2012-11 ''Permit Decision Guarantee for the Department of Environmental Protection'' directing the Department to, among other things, establish a Permit Review Process and Permit Decision Guarantee. The executive order also rescinded the Money Back Guarantee created under executive Order 1995-1. To begin implementing the direction of the executive order, the Department hereby publishes the draft ''Policy for Implementing the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) Permit Review Process and Permit Decision Guarantee'' (draft policy). This draft policy establishes a standardized review process for permit applications. The draft policy provides certain and predictable review times for applicants who submit complete, technically-adequate applications that address all regulatory and statutory requirements; articulates clearly and concisely expectations for applicants that result in complete, technically adequate applications that address all regulatory and statutory requirements; establishes expectations of Department staff aimed at achieving greater efficiency, clarity and consistency across regions and programs; improves the Department's internal tracking and coordination of permit applications; and rescinds and replaces the Policy for Implementing the Department Money-Back Guarantee Permit Review Process 013-2000-001, as amended. The draft policy also outlines the processing times for certain Department permits and authorizations that will be included in the Permit Decision Guarantee.

Written Comments: Interested persons may submit written comments on this draft policy by October 1, 2012. Comments submitted by facsimile will not be accepted. Comments, including comments submitted by electronic mail must include the originator's name and address. Written comments should be submitted to Hayley Book, Acting Director, Office of Program Integration, Rachel Carson State Office Building, 400 Market Street, P.O. Box 2063, Harrisburg, PA 17101-2063, (717) 772-1856, RA-EP-OPI@pa.gov.

Contact: Hayley Book, (717) 772-1856 or RA-EP-OPI@pa.gov.

DEP ID: 021-2000-301. Title: Policy for Permit Coordination. Description: The Policy for Permit Coordination, issued as final on October 22, 2005, outlines how the Department will coordinate the review of multiple permits for proposed projects to ensure efficient use of its resources, thorough environmental review and consistent Department action on proposed projects before the commencement of operations, construction or other activities that require Department permits or approvals. This revised policy serves the same purpose but has been revised to complement the draft ''Policy for Implementing the Department of Environmental Protection (Department) Permit Review Process and Permit Decision Guarantee.''

Notes:

DEP document 021-2100-001 represents DEP's implementation of Governor Corbett's Executive Order 2012-11 dated 7/24/2012, which replaces the "money-back guarantee" clock system with an "assured" time frame for issuing permits. Some permits covered under this policy are meant to be "federally enforceable" through Pennsylvania acting under the Pennsylvania SIP (State Implementation Plan) of the EPA. This document will require careful scrutiny for conflicts with EPA policy. For Executive Order 2012-11 see:
<http://www.portal.state.pa.us/portal/server.pt?open=512&objID=708&PageID=224602&mode=2&contentid=http://pubcontent.state.pa.us/publishedcontent/publish/cop_general_government_operations/oa/oa_portal/omd/p_and_p/executive_orders/2010_2019/items/2012_11.html>

The Drill and Operate Well permit for POLK UNIT 2H OG WELL, authorization ID 939783, was issued on 01/28/2011. Anyone counting on royalty checks from this well being steady for a generation is likely to be disappointed.

-----

eNOTICE records are likely to list the same permit multiple times, as that permit moves through the DEP process.

Oil & Gas Wells designated with a site a number and the letter H typically designate horizontal wells.

Disclaimers:

This compilation from the above sources was done by hand using copy and paste and may omit relevant permits.

Does not currently include water supply permits.

Erosion & Sedimentation permit records do not currently include latitude and longitude. Where I am publishing latitude and longitude with E&S permits it is by inferring an associated well permit and using published latitude and longitude for the well. It is possible I may be inferring the wrong well site.

Municipalities are shown from eFACTS records on the DEP web site. The DEP has been known to list a municipality incorrectly.
