On September 25, 2024, Region 3 issued an Administrative Order on Consent (AOC) to Mountain Top Public Service District (Respondent), pertaining to three domestic wastewater treatment systems in Bayard, West Virginia, Gormania, West Virginia, and Elk Garden, West Virginia. Representatives of the EPA conducted an inspection on December 7, 2022, of Respondent's three wastewater treatment systems, and noted exceedances in discharge monitoring reports, and noncompliance sampling, and operation and maintenance requirement under the Respondent's NPDES Discharge Permit No. WV0101524. Under the terms of the AOC, the Respondent agreed to make changes to come into compliance with the NPDES permit. The EPA consulted with West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection. The site is not in an area of potential EJ concern.
