Public Water System Supervision Program Revision for the State of 
Oklahoma

AGENCY: United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of tentative approval.

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

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the State of Oklahoma is revising 
its approved Public Water System Supervision Program. Oklahoma has 
adopted three EPA drinking water rules, namely the: (1) Long Term 2 
Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule (LT2), (2) the Stage 2 
Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule (DBP2), and (3) the 
Ground Water Rule (GWR). EPA has determined that the proposed LT2, 
DBP2, and the GWR submitted by Oklahoma are no less stringent than the 
corresponding federal regulations. Therefore, EPA intends to approve 
this program revision.

DATES: All interested parties may request a public hearing. A request 
for a public hearing must be submitted by January 8, 2014 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 January 8, 2014, a public hearing will be held. If 
no timely and appropriate request for a hearing is received and the
