Public Water Supply Supervision Program; Program Revision for the 
State of Idaho

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of Tentative Approval.

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

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the State of Idaho has revised its 
approved State Public Water Supply Supervision Primacy Program. Idaho 
has adopted regulations analogous to EPA's Variance and Exemptions 
Rule, Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule, Long Term 
2 Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule, Ground Water Rule, and Lead 
and Copper Short-Term Regulatory Revisions and Clarifications Rule. EPA 
has determined that these revisions are no less stringent than the 
corresponding federal regulations. Therefore, EPA intends to approve 
these State program revisions. By approving these rules, EPA does not 
intend to affect the rights of Federally recognized Indian tribes 
within ``Indian country'' as defined by 18 U.S.C. 1151, nor does it 
intend to limit existing rights of the State of Idaho.
    All interested parties may request a public hearing. A request for 
a public hearing must be submitted by July 23, 2009 to the Regional 
Administrator at the EPA address shown below. Frivolous or 
insubstantial requests for a hearing may be denied by the Regional 
Administrator.
    However, if a substantial request for a public hearing is made by 
July 23, 2009, a public hearing will be held. If no timely and 
appropriate request for a hearing is received and the Regional 
Administrator does not elect to hold a hearing on her own motion, this 
determination shall become final and effective on July 23, 2009.
    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 of the information 
that the requesting person intends to submit at such hearing; (3) the 
signature of the

individual making the request, 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: All documents relating to this determination are available 
for inspection between the hours of 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through 
Friday, at the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality, 1410 North 
Hilton, Boise, Idaho 83706 and between the hours of 9 a.m.-12 p.m. and 
1-4 p.m. at the EPA Region 10 Library, 1200 Sixth Avenue, Seattle, 
Washington 98101.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Wendy Marshall, EPA Region 10, 
Drinking Water Unit, at the Seattle address given above; telephone 
(206) 553-1890.

    Authority: Section 1420 of the Safe Drinking Water Act, as 
amended (1996), and 40 CFR Part 142 of the National Primary Drinking 
Water Regulations.

    Dated: June 15, 2009.
Michelle L. Pirzadeh,
Acting Regional Administrator.
