Unless the application is directly referred for a contested case hearing, the response to comments, and the Executive Director's decision on the application, will be mailed to everyone who submitted public comments and to those persons who are on the mailing list for this application.

APPLICATION. Sigman Grafted LLC, 1659 West Highway 46,Suite 115, Box 525, New Braunfels, Texas, 78132, has applied to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) for proposed Texas Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (TPDES) Permit No. WQ0016494001 to authorize the discharge of treated domestic wastewater at a volume not to exceed 500,000 gallons per day. TCEQ received this application on February 28, 2024.
The facility will be located approximately 0.49 miles northeast of the intersection of San Marcos Highway and West Ridge Road, in Caldwell County, Texas 78655. The treated effluent will be discharged to Morrison Creek, thence to Lower San Marcos River in Segment No.
1808 of the Guadalupe River Basin. The unclassified receiving water use is limited aquatic life use for Morrison Creek. The designated uses for Segment No. 1808 are primary contact recreation, public water supply, and high aquatic life use. In accordance with 30 Texas Administrative Code §307.5 and TCEQ's Procedures to Implement the Texas Surface Water Quality Standards (June 2010), an antidegradation review of the receiving waters was performed. A Tier 1 antidegradation review has preliminarily determined that existing water quality uses will not be impaired by this permit action. Numerical and narrative criteria to protect existing uses will be maintained. This review has preliminarily determined that no water bodies with exceptional, high, or intermediate aquatic life uses are present within the stream reach assessed; therefore, no Tier 2 degradation determination is required. No significant degradation of water quality is expected in water bodies with exceptional, high, or intermediate aquatic life uses downstream, and existing uses will be maintained and protected. The preliminary determination can be reexamined and may be modified if new information is received. This link to an electronic map of the site or facility's general location is provided as a public courtesy and is not part of the application or notice. For the exact location, refer to the application. https://gisweb.tceq.texas.gov/LocationMapper/?marker=-97.81128,29.835431&level=18

The draft permit, if approved, would establish the conditions under which the facility must operate. The Executive Director has made a preliminary decision that this permit, if issued, meets all statutory and regulatory requirements.
