ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
[FRL-5153-8]
Public Water System Supervision Program Revision for the State of
Indiana
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given in accordance with the provisions of
section 1413 of the Safe Drinking Water Act, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 300f
et seq., and 40 CFR part 142, subpart B, the National Primary Drinking
Water Regulations (NPDWR), that the State of Indiana is revising its
approved Public Water System Supervision (PWSS) primacy program. The
Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) adopted drinking
water regulations for Lead and Copper, 44 synthetic organic chemicals
(SOCs), 12 inorganic chemicals (IOCs), and 8 volatile organic chemicals
(VOCs) that correspond to the NPDWR for Lead and Copper, SOCs, IOCs,
and VOCs, promulgated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S.
EPA) on June 7, 1991 (56 FR 26460-26564), on January 30, 1991 (56 FR
3526-3597), as amended on July 1, 1991 (56 FR 30266-30281), and on July
17, 1992 (57 FR 31776-31849). The U.S. EPA has completed its review of
Indiana's PWSS primacy program revision and has determined that these
sets of state program revisions are not less stringent than the
corresponding Federal regulations.
The U.S. EPA has determined that the Indiana rule revisions meet
the requirements of the Federal rule. Therefore, the U.S. EPA is
proposing to approve the IDEM's rule revisions. All interested parties
are invited to submit written comments on these proposed
determinations, and may request a public hearing on or before March 16,
1995. If a public hearing is requested and granted, the corresponding
determination shall not become effective until such time following the
hearing, at which the Regional Administrator issues an order affirming
or rescinding this action. Frivolous or insubstantial requests for a
hearing may be denied by the Regional Administrator.
Requests for public hearing should be addressed to: Miguel A. Del
Toral, (WD-17J), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region 5, 77
West Jackson Boulevard, Chicago, Illinois 60604.
Any request for a public hearing shall include the following: (1)
The name, address, and telephone number of the individual,
organization, or other entity requesting a hearing. (2) A brief
statement of the requesting person's interest in the Regional
Administrator's determinations and of information that the requesting
person intends to submit at such hearing. (3) The signature of the
individual making the request; or, if the request is made on behalf of
an organization or other entity, the signature of a responsible
official of the organization or other entity.
Notice of any hearing shall be given not less than fifteen (15)
days prior to the time scheduled for the hearing. Such notice will be
made by the Regional Administrator in the Federal Register and in
newspapers of general circulation in the State of Indiana. A notice
will be sent to the person(s) requesting the hearing as well as to the
State of Indiana. The hearing notice will include a statement of
purpose, information regarding the time and location, and the address
and telephone number where interested persons may obtain further
information. The Regional Administrator will issue an order affirming
or rescinding his determination upon review of the hearing record.
Should the determination be affirmed, it will become effective as of
the date of the order.
Should no timely and appropriate request for a hearing be received,
and should the Regional Administrator not elect to hold a hearing on
his own [[Page 8378]] motion, these determinations shall become
effective on March 16, 1995. Please bring this notice to the attention
of any persons known by you to have an interest in these
determinations.
All documents related to these determinations are available for
inspection between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday through
Friday, at the following offices:
