Public Water Supervision Program Revision for the State of 
Tennessee

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of tentative approval.

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

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the State of Tennessee is revising 
its approved Public Water System Supervision Program. Tennessee has 
adopted drinking water regulations which incorporate the requirements 
of the Interim Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule and the Stage 1 
Disinfection/Disinfectants Byproducts Rule. EPA has determined that 
these revisions are no less stringent than the corresponding federal 
regulations. Therefore, EPA intends to approve this State program 
revision.
    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 a brief 
statement of the 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 the 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 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday 
through Friday, at the following offices: Tennessee Department of 
Environment and Conservation, Division of Water Supply, 401 Church 
Street, L&C Tower, Sixth Floor, Nashville, Tennessee, 37243-1549, or at 
the Environmental Protection Agency, Region 4, Drinking Water Section, 
61 Forsyth Street Southwest, Atlanta, Georgia 30303.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Fred Hunter, EPA Region 4, Drinking 
Water Section at the Atlanta address given above, or by telephone at

    Authority: Sections 1401 and 1413 of the Safe Drinking Water 
Act, as amended (1996), and 40 CFR parts 141 and 142.

    Dated: May 7, 2002.
A. Stanley Meiburg,
