South Dakota 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

provisions of section 1413 of the Safe 

Drinking Water Act (SDWA), 42 U.S.C. 

300g–2, and 40 CFR 142.13, public 

notice is hereby given that the State of 

South Dakota has revised its Public 

Water System Supervision (PWSS) 

Primacy Program by adopting federal 

regulations for the Long Term 2 

Enhanced Surface Water Treatment 

Rule, Stage 2 Disinfection By-Product 

Rule, Groundwater Rule, and the Lead 

and Copper Short Term Regulatory 

Revisions which correspond to the 

National Primary Drinking Water 

Regulations (NPDWR) in 40 CFR part 

141 and 142. The EPA has completed its 

review of these revisions in accordance 

with the SDWA, and proposes to 

approve South Dakota’s primacy 

revisions for the above stated Rules. 

Today’s approval action does not 

extend to public water systems in 

Indian country, as defined in 18 U.S.C. 

1151. Please see Supplementary 

Information, Item B. 

DATES: Any member of the public may 

request a public hearing on this 

determination by December 13, 2010. 

Please see SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION, 

Item C, for details. Should no timely 

and appropriate request for a hearing be 

received, and the Regional 

Administrator (RA) does not elect to 

hold a hearing on his own motion, this 

determination shall become effective 

December 13, 2010. If a hearing is 

granted, then this determination shall 

not become effective until such time 

following the hearing, as the RA issues 

an order affirming or rescinding this 

action.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA 

approved South Dakota’s application for 

assuming primary enforcement 

authority for the PWSS Program, 

pursuant to section 1413 of SDWA, 42 

U.S.C. 300g–2, and 40 CFR Part 142. 

South Dakota’s Department of 

Environmental & Natural Resources 

administers South Dakota’s PWSS 

Program. 

A. Why are revisions to state programs 

necessary? 

States with primary PWSS 

enforcement authority must comply 

with the requirements of 40 CFR part 

142 for maintaining primacy. They must 

adopt regulations that are at least as 

stringent as the NPDWRs at 40 CFR 

parts 141 and 142, as well as adopt all 

new and revised NPDWRs in order to 

retain primacy (40 CFR 142.12(a)). 

B. How does today’s action affect 

Indian country in South Dakota? 

South Dakota is not authorized to 

carry out its PWSS Program in ‘‘Indian 

country.’’ This includes, but is not 

limited to, land within the formal 

Indian reservations within or abutting 

the State of South Dakota, including 

lands within the exterior boundaries of 

the Cheyenne River, Crow Creek, 

Flandreau, Lower Brule, Pine Ridge, 

Rosebud, Standing Rock and Yankton 

Indian Reservations; any land held in 

trust by the United States for an Indian 

tribe, and any other areas which are 

‘‘Indian country’’ within the meaning of 

18 U.S.C. 1151. 

C. Requesting a Hearing. 

Any request for a public hearing shall 

include: (1) The name, address, and 

telephone number of the individual, 

organization, or other entity requesting 

a hearing; (2) a brief statement of the 

requester’s interest in the RA’s 

determination and of information that 

he/she intends to submit at such 

hearing; and (3) the signature of the 

requester or responsible official, if made 

on behalf of an organization or other 

entity. 

Notice of any hearing shall be given 

not less than fifteen (15) days prior to 

the time scheduled for the hearing and 

will be made by the RA in the Federal 

Register and newspapers of general 

circulation in the State. A notice will 

also be sent to both the person(s) 

requesting the hearing and the State. 

The hearing notice will include a 

statement of purpose, information 

regarding time and location, and the 

address and telephone number where 

interested persons may obtain further 

information. The RA will issue a final 

determination upon review of the 

hearing record. 

Frivolous or insubstantial requests for 

a hearing may be denied by the RA. 

However, if a substantial request is 

made within thirty (30) days after this 

notice, a public hearing will be held. 

Please bring this notice to the 

attention of any persons known by you 

to have an interest in this 

determination.
