Public Water Supervision Program: Program Revisions for the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts
AGENCY: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
is revising it's approved State Public Water Supervision Primacy
Program. Massachusetts has adopted drinking water regulations for
Volatile Organic Chemicals, Synthetic Organic Chemicals, and Inorganic
Chemicals (known as Phase II, IIB, and V) in drinking water that
correspond to the National Primary Drinking Water Regulations
promulgated by EPA on January 30, 1991 (56 FR 3526), July 1, 1991 (56
FR 30266), and July 17, 1992 (57 FR 31776). EPA has determined that the
State program revisions are no less stringent than the corresponding
Federal regulations. Therefore, EPA has tentatively decided to approve
these State program revisions.
All interested parties are invited to request a public hearing. A
request for a public hearing must be submitted by May 8, 1995 to the
Regional Administrator at the address shown below. Frivolous or
insubstantial requests for a hearing may be denied by the Regional
Administrator. However, if a substantial request for a public hearing
is made by May 8, 1995, a public hearing will be held. If no timely and
appropriate request for a hearing is received and the Regional
Administrator does not elect to hold a hearing on his own motion, this
determination shall become effective May 8, 1995.
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
determination and of information that the requesting person intended 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.
