Public Water System Supervision Program Revision for the State of 
Arkansas

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of tentative approval.

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

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the State of Arkansas is revising 
its approved Public Water System Supervision (PWSS) program. Arkansas 
has adopted the Revised Total Coliform Rule (RTCR) by reference under 
Sections I.B, V.A and VII of the Arkansas Rules and Regulations 
Pertaining to Public Water Systems. EPA has determined that the RTCR 
primacy application submitted by Arkansas is no less stringent than the 
corresponding federal regulations. Therefore, EPA intends to approve 
this PWSS program revision package.

DATES: All interested parties may request a public hearing. A request 
for a public hearing must be submitted by July 10, 2015 to the Regional 
Administrator at the EPA Region 6 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 10, 2015, 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 his own motion, this 
determination shall become final and effective on July 10, 2015. Any 
request for a public hearing shall include the following information: 
The name, address, and telephone number of the individual, 
organization, or other entity requesting a hearing; 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; and 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
