ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[FRL-9961-51-Region 10]


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 the Environmental Protection 
Agency's Revised Total Coliform Rule. The Environmental Protection 
Agency (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 nor does it intend to limit existing rights of the State of 
Idaho.

DATES: All interested parties may request a public hearing. A request 
for a public hearing must be submitted by June 12, 2017 to the Acting 
Regional Administrator at the EPA address shown below. Frivolous or 
insubstantial requests for a hearing may be denied by the Acting 
Regional Administrator. However, if a substantial request for a public 
hearing is made by June 12, 2017, a public hearing will be held. If no 
timely and appropriate request for a hearing is received and the Acting 
Regional Administrator does not elect to hold a hearing on her own 
motion, this determination shall become final and effective on June 12, 
2017. 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 Acting 
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 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Monday 
through Friday, at the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality,
