National Primary Drinking Water Regulations; Monitoring
Requirements for Public Drinking Water Supplies

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Proposed rule; notice of extension of public comment period.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On February 10, 1994, EPA published a proposed rule which
would require certain public water systems to generate and provide the
Agency with specific monitoring data and other information. (59 FR
6332). That proposed rule provided for a public comment period to March
14, 1994. This notice extends the public comment period to March 28,
1994.

DATES: The comment period is extended to March 28, 1994.

ADDRESSES: Send written comments to ESWTR/DBPR Monitoring Docket Clerk,
Water Docket (MC-4101); U.S. Environmental Protection Agency; 401 M
Street SW., Washington, DC 20460.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
The Safe Drinking Water Hotline, Telephone (800-426-4791) Monday
through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Eastern Time. For technical
inquiries, contact Stig Regli (202-260-7370) or Paul Berger (202-260-
3039), Office of Ground Water and Drinking Water, Drinking Water
Standards Division.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
proposed national primary drinking water regulations to require public
water systems serving more than 10,000 persons to provide to the
Agency: Information characterizing their water systems; monitoring data
for Giardia, Cryptosporidium and other contaminants; and engineering
data pertaining to removal of disease-causing microorganisms. (59 FR
6332, February 10, 1994). The Agency received several informal requests
to extend the public comment period for this proposal, and a formal
request from the American Water Works Association. EPA has decided to
extend the public comment period for an additional two weeks, to March
28, 1994, in order to provide these groups and any other interested
parties additional time to prepare comments on the proposal. EPA does
not expect to extend the public comment further.
Mark A. Luttner,
Acting Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Water.
