Public Water System Supervision Program Revision for the State of 
LA

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of tentative approval.

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

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the State of Louisiana is revising 
its approved Public Water System Supervision Program. Louisiana has 
revised its variance and exemption regulation and adopted the interim 
enhanced surface water treatment regulation, the disinfectants/
disinfection by-products regulation, and the lead and copper minor 
revisions regulation. EPA has determined that these revisions are no 
less stringent than the corresponding federal regulations. Therefore, 
EPA intends to approve these program revisions.

DATES: All interested parties may request a public hearing. A request 
for a public hearing must be submitted by April 1, 2005 to the Regional 
Administrator at the EPA Region 6 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 April 1, 2005, 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 April 1, 2005. Any 
request for a public hearing shall include the following information: 
The name, address, and telephone number of the individual, 
organization, or other entity requesting a hearing; 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; and 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 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday 
through Friday, at the following offices: Louisiana Department of 
Health and Hospitals, Engineering Services, Safe Drinking Water 
Programs, 6867 Bluebonnet Drive, Baton Rouge, LA 70810 and the United
