Public Water Supervision Program: Program Revisions for the State 
of Maine

AGENCY: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the state of Maine is revising its 
approved State Public Water Supervision Primacy Program. Maine has 
adopted four drinking water regulations for: (1) Volatile organic 
chemicals, (2) public notification, (3) for controlling lead and copper 
and (4) volatile organic chemicals, synthetic organic chemicals, and 
inorganic chemicals (known as Phase II, IIB, and V); that correspond to 
the National Primary Drinking Water Regulations promulgated by EPA on 
(1) July 8, 1987 (52 FR 25690), (2) October 18, 1987 (52 FR 41534), (3) 
June 7, 1991 (56 FR 26460) and (4) 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 July 28, 1995 to the 
Regional [[Page 33411]] 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 28, 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 July 28, 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.

ADDRESSES: All documents relating to this determination are available 
for inspection between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Monday 
through Friday, at the following offices:
