On Saturday, November 2nd, the revised version of the Management of Fill Policy was published by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PA DEP) in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. The publishing of this document follows a comment period that ended in January 2019, where the draft policy received significant comments from various industry representatives and interested stakeholders. Moody representatives assisted several industry stakeholders in providing pertinent comments regarding the language and procedures defined in the policy document.
This policy will come into effect on January 1, 2020. We have included the link below to review the new technical guidance document, along with the Comment-Response document from the January 2019 public comment period.
