Public Water System Supervision Program Revision for the State of 
Georgia

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of tentative approval.

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

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the State of Georgia is revising 
its approved Public Water System Supervision Program. Georgia has 
adopted drinking water regulations for Long Term 1 Enhanced Surface 
Water Treatment Rule and Filter Backwash Rule. EPA has determined that 
these revisions are no less stringent than the corresponding federal 
regulations. Therefore, EPA intends on approving this State program 
revision.
    All interested parties may request a public hearing. A request for 
a public hearing must be submitted by May 16, 2005 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 May 
16, 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 May 16, 2005. 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 behalf of an organization or 
other entity, the signature of a responsible official of the 
organization or other entity.
