a request that the Region approve a revision to the State's Safe 
Drinking Water Act Public Water System Supervision Program to include 
the authority to implement and enforce the Ground Water Rule. For the 
requests to be approved, the EPA must find the State Rules codified at 
15 Miss. Admin. Code Pt. 20, Subpt. 72, Ch. 1., to be no less stringent 
than the Federal Rules codified at 40 CFR Part 141, Subpart T--Enhanced

the Federal statutory provisions (Section 1413 of the Safe Drinking 
Water Act), Federal regulations (at 40 CFR part 142), State 
regulations, rule crosswalks, and EPA regulatory guidance to determine 
whether the requests for revision are approvable. The EPA determined 
that the Mississippi regulations are no less stringent than the 
corresponding Federal regulations.
    EPA Action: The EPA is tentatively approving this revision. If the 
EPA does not receive a timely and appropriate request for a hearing and 
the Regional Administrator does not elect to hold a hearing on her own 
motion, this tentative approval will become final and effective on 
August 11, 2014.
