    IL0029524
    Dear
    Mr.
    Humphrey:
    The Illinois
    Environmental
    Protection
    Agency
    (Agency)
    has
    completed
    its
    technical
    review
    of
    the attached
    provisional
    variance
    request
    (Attachment
    A)
    that
    the
    Village
    of
    Hutsonville
    (Village),
    Crawford
    County,
    submitted
    for
    its waste
    water
    treatment
    facility.
    The
    Agency
    received
    the
    first
    request
    on
    October
    24, 2008,
    and
    a more
    detailed
    request
    on October
    28,
    2008.
    The
    Village
    is
    seeking
    a
    provisional
    variance
    so
    that
    it
    can
    remove
    the
    facility’s
    clarifier
    from
    service
    to make
    needed
    repairs.
    Based
    on
    its
    review,
    the
    Agency
    GRANTS
    the
    Village
    a
    provisional
    variance
    subject
    to
    the
    specific
    conditions
    set
    forth
    below.
    Background
    The
    Village
    owns
    and
    operates
    a
    waste
    water
    treatment
    facility,
    located
    at
    600
    East
    Church
    Street,
    which
    serves
    all
    areas
    located within
    the incorporated
    limits
    of
    Hutsonville.
    The
    facility
    consists
    of an
    Imhoff
    tank,
    a trickling
    filter,
    and a
    clarifier.
    After
    receiving
    a
    recent
    violation
    notice
    from
    the
    Agency,
    the
    Village
    determined
    that
    it
    needed
    to
    make
    certain
    repairs
    to
    the
    clarifier.
    More
    specifically,
    the Village
    must
    replace
    the
    clarifier
    weir
    plates
    as
    well
    as
    the sludge
    and
    scum
    scraper
    blades.
    The
    Village
    also
    plans
    to
    blast
    and recoat
    the
    interior
    and
    exterior
    of
    the
    clarifier.

    The
    Village
    estimates
    that
    the
    quantity
    of
    water
    released
    through
    Outfall
    001
    into
    the
    Wabash
    River
    the will
    be
    0.065
    MGD
    (million
    gallons
    per
    day).
    During
    this
    time,
    the
    secondary
    clarifier
    and
    trickling
    filter
    will
    need
    to
    be
    bypassed.
    Treatment
    will
    consist
    of
    primary
    settling
    in the
    Imhoff
    tank
    only.
    Thus,
    treatment
    will
    be less
    effective
    than
    when
    the
    trickling
    filter
    and
    secondary
    clarifier
    are
    in service.
    Relief
    Requested
    The
    Village
    seeks
    a provisional variance
    from
    the
    effluent
    limits
    required
    in
    NPDES
    permit
    1L0029254
    (Attachment
    B)
    while
    it
    makes
    repairs
    to
    the
    clarifier.
    NPDES
    permit
    1L0029254
    requires

    and
    5.
    The
    Village
    will
    face

    and
    unreasonable
    hardship
    if the
    request
    is
    not
    granted.

    The
    Village
    of
    Hutsonville
    is
    located
    in
    Crawford
    County
    in
    Southeastern
    Illinois
    and
    has
    a
    population
    of
    540.
    Their
    waste
    water
    treatment
    facility
    currently
    provides
    service
    to
    285
    users.
    The
    facility
    plant
    consists
    of
    a
    single
    clarifier,
    an
    imhoff
    tank,
    a
    trickling
    Filter,
    and
    provides
    chlorine
    disinfection
    prior
    to
    discharge.
    Please
    be
    advised
    that
    an
    emergency
    has
    been
    encountered/that
    requires
    the
    Village
    to
    remove
    the
    clarifier
    from
    service.
    Pursuan
    to
    a
    recent
    violation
    notice
    received
    from
    your
    agency,
    measures
    are
    being
    taken
    to
    assure
    future
    compliance.
    The
    clarifier
    weir
    plates
    are
    in
    need
    of
    replacement
    to
    prevent
    short
    circuiting,
    and
    the
    sludge
    and
    scum
    scraper
    blades
    need
    replaced
    as
    well.
    In
    addition,
    the
    interior
    and
    exterior
    coating
    of
    the
    structure
    is
    planned
    to
    be
    blasted
    and
    re—coated.
    To
    perform
    this
    work,
    it
    will
    be
    necessary
    to
    remove
    the
    clarifier
    from
    service,
    and
    by—pass
    it
    during
    the
    process
    of
    the
    described
    work.
    Essentially
    all
    other
    treatment
    options
    will
    be
    used
    during
    this
    time,
    including
    the
    disinfection
    process.
    We
    expect
    that
