application for construction of an on-site wastewater treatment 
facility to process up to 0.08 million gallons per day (mgd) of 
sanitary landfill leachate and non-hazardous liquid waste generated by 
facilities within the Delaware River Basin. After tertiary treatment, 
the effluent will be conveyed by pipeline from the existing 
Colebrookdale Landfill and discharged to Manatawny Creek in Oley 
Township, Berks County, Pennsylvania. The existing landfill project has

to expand the rating of its existing 3.0 mgd capacity industrial 
wastewater treatment plant (IWTP) to handle approximately 3.6 mgd. In 
addition, AT&T has requested a determination of the allowable limit for 
the concentration of total dissolved solids in the treated effluent, 
which will continue to discharge to Spring Run, a tributary of the 
Lehigh River. The project IWTP serves only the AT&T's electronic 
components manufacturing operation located at the plant site just north 
of Union Boulevard and east of the Lehigh River, in the City of 
Allentown, Lehigh County, Pennsylvania.
