Public Water System Supervision Program Revision for the State of 
South Carolina

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the State of South Carolina is 
revising its approved Public Water System Supervision Program. South 
Carolina has adopted drinking water regulations revising the interim 
enhanced surface water treatment rule and disinfection by-product rule. 
EPA has determined that the interim enhanced surface water treatment 
rule and disinfection by-product rule revisions meet all minimum 
federal requirements, and are no less stringent than the corresponding 
federal regulations. Therefore, EPA has tentatively decided to approve 
these State program revisions.
    All interested parties may request a public hearing. A request for 
a public hearing must be submitted by June 24, 2002 to the Regional 
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 June 24, 2002, 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 final and 
effective on June 24, 2002. Any request for a public hearing shall 
include the following information: (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 intends 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.
