ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
[FRL 5191-6]
Public Water System Supervision Program Revision for the State of
Wisconsin
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given in accordance with the provision of
Sec. 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 Wisconsin is revising its
approved Public Water System Supervision (PWSS) primacy program. The
Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) adopted drinking water
regulations for 18 synthetic organic chemicals (SOCs), and 5 inorganic
chemicals (IOCs), that correspond to the NPDWR for SOCs and IOCs,
promulgated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) on
July 17, 1992 (57 FR 31776-31849). The U.S. EPA has completed its
review of Wisconsin's PWSS primacy program revision and has determined
that the State program revision is no less stringent than the
corresponding Federal regulations.
The U.S. EPA has determined that the Wisconsin rule revision meets
the requirements of the Federal rule. Therefore, the U.S. EPA is
proposing to approve the WDNR's rule revision. All interested parties
are invited to submit written comments on this proposed determination,
and may request a public hearing on or before May 15, 1995. If a public
hearing is requested and granted, the 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 Wisconsin. A notice
will be sent to the person(s) requesting the hearing as well as to the
State of Wisconsin. 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 motion, these determinations shall become effective on May 15,
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
