    (b) * * *
    (5) Radiological quality. (i) Bottled water shall, when a composite 
of analytical units of equal volume from a sample is examined by the 
methods described in paragraph (b((5)(ii) of this section, meet 
standards of radiological quality as follows:
    (A) The bottled water shall not contain a combined radium-226 and 
radium-228 activity in excess of 5 picocuries per liter of water.
    (B) The bottled water shall not contain a gross alpha particle 
activity (including radium-226, but excluding radon and uranium) in 
excess of 15 picocuries per liter of water.
    (C) The bottled water shall not contain beta particle and photon 
radioactivity from manmade radionuclides in excess of that which would 
produce an annual dose equivalent to the total body or any internal 
organ of 4 millirems per year calculated on the basis of an intake of 2 
liters of the water per day. If two or more beta or photon-emitting 
radionuclides are present, the sum of their annual dose equivalent to 
the total body or to any internal organ shall not exceed 4 millirems 
per year.
    (ii) Analyses conducted to determine compliance with paragraph 
(b)(5)(i) of this section shall be made in accordance with the methods 
described in the applicable sections of ``Standard Methods for the 
Examination of Water and Wastewater,'' 15th Ed. (1980), and ``Interim 
Radiochemical Methodology for Drinking Water,'' U.S. EPA, EMSL, EPA-
600/4-75-008 (Revised), March
