SUMMARY:DEP SPEED and Chapter 105 Pilot Program hosted by PSPE
DESCRIPTION:Join PSPE and Len Bradley\, Central Region Vice President\, as he moderates a virtual update with Domenic Rocco\, P.E.\, Director\, Bureau of Waterways Engineering and Wetlands\, for the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection. \nAttendance is free for members and nonmembers! \nIn August 2024\, DEP announced two new initiatives to continue to speed up permitting processes “to make sure we are moving at the speed of business – without sacrificing the environmental and public health safeguards that protect our air\, land\, and water.” \nIn this meeting\, Mr. Rocco will provide an overview of the following: \n\n\n\nThe Streamlining Permits for Economic Expansion and Economic Development (SPEED) program (HB 2310 – pg. 102). The SPEED program will provide additional flexibility by allowing permit applicants to choose to have a DEP -verified and Qualified Professional to conduct the review of the application\, while DEP staff maintain final authority over all permit decisions.  Details are included on DEP’s Permit Modernization webpage (see SPEED drop-down)\, including the Chapter 105 Invitation for Bid (IFB) which is open now.\nThe Chapter 105 Pilot Program for Individual Joint Applications started on September 1 and will help DEP continue to reduce backlogs by reducing errors in applications and cutting the total time to process an application by formalizing a pre-application meeting process between applicants and DEP prior to submitting a permit application.  Details are included on DEP’s Chapter 105 Forms\, Publications and Guidance webpage\, including a summary of the pilot program.\n\n\n\nA Q & A session between attendees and Mr. Rocco related to these programs will follow. \nRegister before 9:00 am on Thursday\, December 12\, to receive access to the webinar. Please note: This webinar will not be recorded. \nA certificate of attendance for one (1) PDH will be available if needed. A $25 administrative fee will be charged. \nQuestions can be submitted both in advance and during the webinar. PSPE will moderate. Please note that site/project-specific questions will not be considered. \nRegister Now!
