Rulemaking for the Pharmaceuticals Manufacturing Industry Notice 
of Public Meeting

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Public meeting.

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

SUMMARY: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is developing 
regulations that will apply to the pharmaceuticals manufacturing 
industry. The regulations are scheduled to be proposed in August 1994, 
and EPA is sponsoring a public meeting prior to proposal.
    EPA is developing effluent limitations guidelines and standards 
under authority of the clean Water Act. The Agency plans to proceed 
with this rulemaking and coordinate this effort with the development of 
maximum achievable control technology standards under authority of the 
Clean Water Act. These standards are due to be developed on a separate 
schedule.
    The public meeting is intended to be a forum in which EPA can 
report on the status of regulatory development and in which interested 
parties can provide information and ideas on key technical, scientific, 
and other issues. Other agenda topics for this public meeting include a 
summary of data collection activities, options development and 
preliminary technology-based options selection. A document relating to 
the above topics and a more detailed agenda will be available at the 
meeting.

DATES: The date for the public meeting is Monday, May 23, 1994, from 9 
a.m. to 5 p.m.

ADDRESSES: The public meeting will be held at the U. S. Geological 
Survey National Center Auditorium, 12201 Sunrise Valley Drive, Reston, 
VA. Seating will be available for approximately 125 attendees.
