Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality
Public Notice: PROPOSED TEMPORARY TURBIDITY INCREASE IN PRAIRIE CREEK

The Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality (WDEQ) has received a request from Wild Waters Restoration LLC, for a temporary increase in turbidity in Prairie Creek near Daniel, Wyoming. The temporary increase in turbidity is associated with proposed channel restoration.

Activity in cold water streams like Prairie Creek is normally limited to a ten (10) NTU increase over background. Approval of this request would allow an exceedance of this limit for up to twenty (20) total working days, subject to monitoring and reporting. This activity will follow the procedures in Chapter 1, Section 23(c)(ii), of the WDEQ Water Quality Rules, which allow for temporary elevated levels of turbidity in certain circumstances. The applicant has applied for a U.S. Army Corps of Engineer 404 permit for the project.

Requests for information about the proposed temporary turbidity increase should be directed to Eric Hargett by email ([email protected]) or phone (307-777-6701). Written comments must be addressed to Eric Hargett, Wyoming DEQ/WQD, 200 W. 17th Street ? 4TH floor, Cheyenne, WY, 82002, and be postmarked on or before 5:00 p.m. on July 8, 2022 to be considered. Electronic comments may only be submitted through and accepted by the Wyoming DEQ comment portal provided at* [link removed] [ [link removed] ]*. Phone comments will not be accepted.
