The purpose of this memorandum is to recommend your approval of
Mississippi’s  revisions to its Public Water System Supervision
Program for the Arsenic, Filter Backwash Recycling, and Radionuclides
Rules.  The background for these recommendations can be found in the
attached Fact Sheet.  

Should you approve these rules, enclosed you will find two items for
your signature.  The first is the Federal Register Notice announcing
EPA(s tentative approval of the Rules. This notice is necessary in order
for EPA to accept Mississippi(s revisions. The second is a memorandum
transmitting the Federal Register Notice to the Federal Register Liaison
in Headquarters.  Should the public notice period on the Rules end
without the filing of any requests for public hearing, the tentative
approval of the Rules will automatically become a final approval thirty
(30) days from the date of the publication of the Rules in the Federal
Register.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding this recommendation,
please contact     E. Stallings Howell, Chief, Ground Water & Drinking
Water Branch at X9329.

These packages have been reviewed by the Office of Regional Counsel and
the Regional Counsel hereby concurs in the approval of the Rules:
