Description/Agenda

November 25, 2025 DIVISION OF WATER QUALITY UTAH DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY PUBLIC NOTICE OF INTENT TO RENEW A UPDES PERMIT PURPOSE OF PUBLIC NOTICE The purpose of this public notice is to declare the Director of the Division of Water Quality's intention to renew a Utah Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (UPDES) Permit under the authority of the Utah Water Quality Act, Utah Code § 19-5-106(2)(g). The draft Permit and the Fact Sheet (collectively, the draft Permit documents) are available for review and comment. PERMIT INFORMATION PERMITTEE NAME: U. S. Steel Corporation FACILITY NAME: U. S. Steel Corporation - Treatment Unit MAILING ADDRESS: 600 Grant Street, Environmental Room 1774 Pittsburg, PA 15219 TELEPHONE NUMBER: (412) 302-3624 FACILITY LOCATION: 140 West 1400 North, Vineyard, Utah UPDES PERMIT NO.: UT0000361 PERMITTED OUTFALLS: 005-B OUTFALL LOCATION: Latitude 40 19' 21.9576' N and Longitude 111 45' 23.7528' W RECEIVING WATER: Unclassified onsite drainage ditch (indirect and adjacent to Utah Lake) BACKGROUND U. S. Steel Corporation operates a groundwater treatment unit located onsite of the Anderson Geneva, LLC property, which was previously permitted and co-operated under the name GPM Enviro Project Manager, LLC (GPM), and was a defunct integrated steel mill located in the town of Vineyard, Utah, just east of Utah Lake in Utah County at the above-referenced facility address (facility). As of 2010, the steel making machinery and mill had been dismantled and removed off site, and all of the buildings and other structures at the facility have since been demolished. Operations during the ongoing redevelopment of the facility property have fallen under two Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) Codes: 4953 - Refuse Systems, and; 5093 - Scrap and Waste Materials. While Anderson Geneva, LLC and GPM will no longer be co-operating the facility, U. S. Steel Corporation is seeking a renewal of the above-referenced UPDES Permit (Permit) for continued authorization of wastewater discharges from the onsite treatment unit as appropriate. There are no proposed changes in the Permit other than the name change from Anderson Geneva, LLC (and formerly GPM) to U. S. Steel Corporation. Please refer to the draft permit documents for more information. PUBLIC COMMENTS Pursuant to Utah Admin. Code R317-8-6(6.6), any interested person may submit written comments on the draft permit documents and may request a public hearing if no hearing has already been scheduled. A request for a public hearing shall be in writing and shall state the nature of the issues proposed to be raised in the hearing.

Commenters have an affirmative obligation to raise all reasonably ascertainable issues and submit all reasonably available arguments and factual grounds supporting their position, including all supporting material.
