Public Water System Supervision Program Revision for the State of 
Maryland

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given in accordance with the provisions of 
Sec. 1413 of the Safe Drinking Water Act as amended, 42 U.S.C. 300f et 
seq., and 40 CFR 142, the National Primary Drinking Water Regulations 
Implementation, that the State of Maryland has revised its approved 
State Public Water System Supervision Primacy Program. Maryland has 
adopted drinking water regulations for (1) lead and copper that 
correspond to the National Primary Drinking Water Regulations 
promulgated by EPA on June 7, 1991 (56 FR 26548); and (2) 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 January 30, 1991 (56 
FR 3526), July 1, 1991 (56 FR 30266), and July 17, 1992 (57 FR 31776). 
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.
    All interested parties are invited to request a public hearing. A 
request for a public hearing must be submitted by September 5, 1995 to 
the Acting Regional Administrator at the address shown below. Frivolous 
or insubstantial requests for a hearing may be denied by the Acting 
Regional Administrator. However, if a substantial request for a public 
hearing is made by (insert date, 30 days from day of publication), a 
public hearing will be held. If no timely and appropriate request for a 
hearing is received and the Acting Regional Administrator elects not to 
hold a hearing on his own motion, this determination shall become 
effective on September 5, 1995.
    A 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 Acting Regional Administrator's 
determination and of information that the requesting person intends to 
submit at such a hearing. (3) The signature of the individual making
