National Drinking Water Advisory Council; Request for Nominations

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) invites all interested 
persons to suggest individuals to serve as members of the working 
groups that will be formed under the National Drinking Water Advisory 
Council on specific matters relating to implementation of the Safe 
Drinking Water Act. The Advisory Council was established to provide 
practical and independent advice, consultation, and recommendations to 
the Agency on the activities, functions and policies related to the Act 
as amended. At the November 13 and 14, 1996, meeting of the Council, it 
was decided that working groups should be formed on the following 
subjects: Small Systems Capacity Building; Operator Certification; 
Source Water Protection; Consumer Confidence Reports; Drinking Water 
State Revolving Fund; and Occurrence and Contaminant Selection.
    Because membership on these groups will be limited and must be 
representative of balanced views, selections will be made by the 
Director, Office of Ground Water and Drinking Water, based on drinking 
water expertise and demonstrated interest in drinking water policy. Any 
interested person or organization may suggest an individual for a 
position on the working groups. Candidates should be identified by 
name, occupation, position, address and telephone number and the 
working group for which they wish to be considered for membership.
    Persons selected for membership are responsible for any expenses 
that would

be incurred while attending meetings. Suggestions should be submitted 
to Charlene E. Shaw, Designated Federal Officer, National Drinking 
Water Advisory Council, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Office of 
Ground Water and Drinking Water (4601), 401 M Street SW, Washington, 
D.C. 20460, no later than December 31, 1996. The agency will not 
formally acknowledge or respond to nominations. E-Mail your questions 
to [e-mail] or call 202/260-2285.

    Dated: December 10, 1996.
