Public Water Supply Supervision Program; Program Revision for the
State of Alaska
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the State of Alaska is revising
its approved State Public Water Supply Supervision Primacy Program.
Alaska has adopted drinking water regulations for certain inorganic,
volatile organic and synthetic organic chemicals (collectively known as
the Phase II, Phase IIB and Phase V contaminants) and for lead and
copper. EPA has determined that these State program revisions are no
less stringent than the corresponding Federal regulations. Therefore,
EPA has tentatively decided to approve these State program revisions.
By approving Alaska's Phase II/IIB/V Contaminants Rule and its Lead and
Copper Rule, EPA does not intend to affect the rights of Federally
recognized Indian tribes within ``Indian Country,'' as defined in 18
U.S.C. 1151, nor does it intend to limit existing rights of the State
of Alaska.
All interested parties may request a public hearing. A request for
public hearing must be submitted by July 3, 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 July
3, 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 final and effective July 3, 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 intends to submit at such hearing; and (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.
ADDRESSES: All documents relating to this determination are available
for inspection between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday
through Friday, at the following offices:
