SUMMARY: In accordance with the

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

that the state of Utah has revised its 

Public Water System Supervision 

(PWSS) Program by adopting 

regulations for the Lead and Copper 

Short Term Revisions, Long Term 1 

Enhanced Surface Water Treatment 

Rule, the Long Term 2 Enhanced 

Surface Water Treatment Rule and the 

Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection 

Byproducts Rule that correspond to the 

National Primary Drinking Water 

Regulations (NPDWR). The EPA has 

completed its review of these revisions 

in accordance with the SDWA and 

proposes to approve them. 

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 is 

invited to submit written comments 

and/or request a public hearing on this 

determination by October 19, 2012. 

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 

October 19, 2012. If a public hearing is 

requested and 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.

requests for a public hearing should be

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The EPA 

approved Utah’s application for 

assuming primary enforcement 

authority for the PWSS program, 

pursuant to Section 1413 of the SDWA, 

42 U.S.C. 300g–2, and 40 CFR part 142. 

The Utah Department of Environmental 

Quality, Division of Drinking Water 

administers Utah’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 (18 U.S.C. 1151) in 

Utah? 

Utah is not authorized to carry out its 

PWSS program in Indian country, as 

that term is defined at 18 U.S.C. 1151. 

Indian country includes, but is not 

limited to, land within the formal 

Indian Reservations located within or 

abutting the state of Utah, including the 

Skull Valley, Paiute, Navajo, Goshute, 

Ute Mountain, and Northwestern 

Shoshoni Indian Reservations; Indian 

country lands within the Uintah and 

Ouray Indian Reservation; 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 in a newspaper 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. 

Dated: August 27, 2012.
