ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

AGENCY

[WH–FRL–6982–3]

Meeting of the Arsenic Cost Working

Group of the National Drinking Water

Advisory Committee

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: Under section 10(a)(2) of

Public Law 92–423, ‘‘The Federal

Advisory Committee Act,’’ notice is

hereby given that a meeting of Arsenic

Cost Working Group of the National

Drinking Water Advisory Council

established under the Safe Drinking

Water Act, as amended (42 U.S.C. S300f

et seq.), will be held on May 29 and May

30, 2001, from 8:30 a.m.–5:00 p.m.

Eastern Time, at RESOLVE, 1255 23rd

Street, NW., Suite 275, Washington, DC.

The meeting is open to the public, but

from past experience, seating will likely

be limited.

Following the January 22, 2001

Federal Register promulgation of the

arsenic rule, a number of concerns were

raised to EPA by States, public water

systems, and other stakeholders

regarding the adequacy of science and

the basis for national cost estimates

underlying the rule. Because of the

importance of the arsenic rule and the

national debate surrounding it related to

science and costs, EPA’s Administrator

publicly announced on March 20, 2001,

that the Agency would take additional

steps to reassess the scientific and cost

issues associated with this rule and seek

further public input on each of these

important issues.

The purpose of this meeting is to

bring nationally recognized technical

experts together to review the cost of

compliance estimates associated with

the final arsenic in drinking water rule.

The meeting is open to the public to

observe. The working group members

are meeting to: (1) Gather information;

and (2) analyze relevant issues and

facts. Statements from the public will be

taken if time permits.
