ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION 

AGENCY 

Safe Drinking Water Act Sole Source 

Aquifer Program; Designation of 

Bainbridge Island, Washington as a 

Sole Source Aquifer 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Final determination. 

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that 

pursuant to Section 1424(e) of the Safe 

Drinking Water Act, the Administrator 

of the U.S. Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) has determined that the 

Bainbridge Island Aquifer System 

located in Kitsap County, Washington is 

the sole or principle source of drinking 

water for the citizens of Bainbridge 

Island and that this aquifer system, if 

contaminated would create a significant 

hazard to public health. As a result of 

this action, all Federal financially 

assisted projects constructed on 

Bainbridge Island will be subject to EPA 

review to ensure that these projects are 

designed and constructed so they do not 

create a significant hazard to public 

health. 

DATES: This determination shall be 

effective on March 29, 2013. 

ADDRESSES: All documents relating to 

this determination are available for 

inspection by the public during normal 

business hours at the U.S. EPA Library, 

Region 10, 1200 Sixth Avenue, Seattle, 

Washington 98101 between the hours of 

9:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m. and 1:00–4:00 p.m. 

and at the Bainbridge Island library at 

1270 Madison Avenue North, 

Bainbridge Island. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Susan Eastman, EPA Region 10, 

Drinking Water Unit, by mail at the 

Seattle address given above, by 

telephone at (206) 553–6249, or by

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

Section 1424(e) of the Safe Drinking 

Water Act (42 U.S.C. 300h3(e), Public 

Law 93–523 of December 16, 1974) 

states: 

If the Administrator determines, on his 

own initiative or upon petition, that an area 

has an aquifer which is the sole or principal 

drinking water source for the area and which, 

if contaminated, could create a significant 

hazard to public health, he shall publish a 

notice of the determination in the Federal 

Register. After the publication of any such 

notice, no commitment for Federal financial 

assistance (through a grant, contract, loan 

guarantee, or otherwise) may be entered into 

for any project which the Administrator 

determines may contaminate such aquifer 

through a recharge zone so as to create a 

significant hazard to public health, but a 

commitment for Federal financial assistance 

may, if authorized under another provision of 

law, be entered into to plan or design the 

project to assure that it will not so 

contaminate the aquifer. 

On August 5, 2009, EPA received a 

petition from two citizens of Bainbridge 

Island requesting designation of the 

Bainbridge Island Aquifer System as a 

Sole Source Aquifer (SSA). On April 20, 

2012, EPA published a notice in the 

Bainbridge Islander newspaper and 

mailed fact sheets to island residents 

which served to announce the public 

comment period. The public was 

permitted to submit comments and 

information on the petition from April 

20 through June 4, 2012. Public 

comments received by EPA were 

generally in support of the designation. 

II. Basis for Determination 

EPA defines a sole or principle source 

aquifer as an aquifer or aquifer system 

which supplies at least 50 percent of the 

drinking water consumed in the area 

overlying the aquifer, and for which
