Public Water System Supervision Program Revision for the State of 
New York

AGENCY: United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA).

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the State of New York is revising 
its approved Public Water System Supervision Primacy Program. The State 
of New York has adopted drinking water regulations that satisfy the 
National Primary Drinking Water Regulations for the Synthetic Organic 
Chemicals and Inorganic Chemicals; Monitoring for Unregulated 
Contaminants rule (Phase 2), and Monitoring for Volatile Organic 
Chemicals rule (Phase 2B). These regulations were promulgated by EPA on 
January 30, 1991 (56 FR 3526), and July 1, 1991 (56 FR 30266) with May 
27, 1992 correction (57 FR 22178), respectively.
    The USEPA has determined that New York's Phase regulations are no 
less stringent than the corresponding Federal regulations and that New 
York continues to meet all requirements for primary enforcement 
responsibility as specified in 40 CFR 142.10.
    All interested parties, other than Federal Agencies, may request a 
public hearing. A request for a public hearing must be submitted to the 
USEPA Regional Administrator at the address shown below within thirty 
(30 ) days after the date of this Federal Register Notice. If a 
substantial request for a public hearing is made within the required 
thirty-day period, a public hearing will be held and a notice will be 
given in the Federal Register and a newspaper of general circulation. 
Frivolous or insubstantial requests for a hearing may be denied by the 
Regional Administrator. If no timely and appropriate request for a 
hearing is received and the Regional Administrator does not choose to 
hold a hearing on his/her motion, this determination shall become final 
and effective thirty (30) days after publication of this Federal 
Register Notice.
    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 on 
information that the requesting person intends to submit at such 
hearing;
    (3) the signature of the individual making the requests 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.

ADDRESSES: Requests for Public Hearing shall be addressed to: Regional 
Administrator, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency--Region II, Jacob 
K. Javits Federal Building, 26 Federal Plaza, New York, New York 10278.
