14 Hollywood AMD Treatment Facility Bennett Branch Watershed Clearfield County
15 Status of AMD Set-Aside Program Guidelines The original Technical Guidance Document was published in DRAFT form on February 21, 2015 Based on the comments received, a revised/updated version has been developed A Comment and Response Document (CRD) based on the comments received has also been developed The revised TGD and CRD are currently undergoing legal review within DEP Following Legal approval and review by the DEP Policy Office, the final TGD and CRD will be published in the PA Bulletin.
16 AMD Set-Aside Program Evaluation Outside Stakeholder Input AMD Program Evaluation Stakeholder Groups Voiced Significant and Ongoing Concern for O&M of ~250 Previously Built AMD Treatment Systems Also concerned that most are not located in Qualified Hydrologic Units (QHUs) Additionally, O,M & R Workgroup Examined O&M Need Determined need could be as much as ~$3 million/year Could climb to $4 million/year assuming 5 new systems/year
17 AMD Set-Aside Program Moving Forward Plan to develop and/or consider many new QHUs to include most AMD impacted watersheds in PA Continue to make AMD Set-Aside funds available through the DEP Grant Center for O&M of AMD Treatment Systems constructed by watershed groups and non-profits in approved QHUs Continue to make AMD Set-Aside funds available through the DEP Grant Center for construction of a limited number of new AMD Treatment Systems in approved QHUs
18 Justification Under current SMCRA, PA should receive AML Grants of at least $30-40 million/year for the next 20 years Can set aside up to 30% for AMD Treatment If AML Fee Collection Authority is not Reauthorized in 2021, a decision to stop constructing new facilities and banking all future set-aside amounts for long-term O&M would need to be made around 2025 RECLAIM Act would change this scenario by ending AML Grants around 2025
19 OSMRE s AML Grant Projections for PA (Developed by OSMRE October 5, 2015 Don t Consider Sequestration) YEAR Grant Amount 2015 $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $59.6 YEAR Grant Amount 2024 $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $64.6
20 DEP to construct several large-scale AMD Treatment Facilities Cresson AMD Treatment Plant in Cambria County (Clearfield Creek/Susquehanna River Basin) (Capital Budget Funds + AMD Set- Aside for Design) Wehrum AMD Treatment Plant in Indiana County (Blacklick Creek/Ohio River Basin) (Capital Budget Funds + AMD Set-Aside for Design) Little Conemaugh River AMD Treatment Plant in Cambria County (Conemaugh River/Ohio River Basin) (Capital Budget Funds Requested + AMD Set-Aside possibly for Design) Recommend 1-2 more Large-scale AMD Treatment Facilities in both the Bituminous District and the Anthracite District
21 Proposed Federal RECLAIM Act The RECLAIM Act (HR 4456) was introduced in Congress by Congressman Hal Rogers of KY and a bipartisan group of Reps. on February 3, 2016 Similar to AMLER proposal put forward by the administration last year Would accelerate payments of $1 billion from the AML Trust Fund over 5 year period (FY 2017-FY2021)
22 Proposed Federal RECLAIM Act PA would stand to receive $67,567,852 per year for 5 years The intent of the projects funded by the program is to revitalize coal communities impacted by abandoned mine lands and the recent downturn in coal mining and coal-fired power generation
23 Proposed Federal RECLAIM Act DEP began last year to develop a preliminary list of potential projects and a strawman proposal (Based on the administration s AMLER Proposal) on how this program might be implemented Once questions are answered and details are provided by OSM and Congress, DEP will be sharing ideas and seeking input from outside stakeholder groups Governor Wolf sent a letter of support to PA s congressional delegation recommending funding come to PA through the normal AML grant process
24 AML Grant Projections for PA w/reclaim YEAR Grant Amount 2015 $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $35.8 YEAR Grant Amount 2024 $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ 0 Without Title IV Reauthorization, AML Program Ends in 2026 Developed by Jointly by IMCC/OSMRE in 2015 based on AMLER Proposal
