Revised Total Coliform Rule. For the
requests to be approved, the EPA must
find the state regulations codified at Ga.
Comp. R. & Regs. r. 391–3–5 to be no
less stringent than the Federal rules
codified at 40 CFR part 141. The EPA
reviewed Georgia’s applications using
the Federal statutory provisions (section
1413 of the Safe Drinking Water Act),
federal regulations (at 40 CFR parts 141
and 142), state regulations, state policies
and procedures for implementing the
rules, regulatory crosswalks, and the
EPA regulatory guidance to determine
whether the requests for revision are
approvable. The EPA determined that
the Georgia regulations are no less
stringent than the corresponding
Federal rules and the revisions
otherwise meet applicable Safe Drinking
Water Act requirements. Therefore, the
EPA intends to approve these revisions.
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 his own
motion, this approval shall become final
on September 23, 2022.
Authority: Section 1413 of the Safe
Drinking Water Act, as amended (1996),
and 40 CFR part 142.
Dated: August 18, 2022.
Daniel Blackman,
Regional Administrator.

Abstract: GreenChill is a voluntary
partnership program sponsored by the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) that encourages food retailers and
manufacturers to adopt cost effective
technologies and practices that reduce
refrigerant emissions and improve
operational efficiency. The GreenChill
Program works with the food retail
industry to lower barriers inhibiting the
implementation of technologies and
practices that reduce refrigerant
emissions. The Program effectively
promotes the adoption of emission
reduction practices and technologies by
engaging GreenChill Partners to set an
annual refrigerant emission reduction
goal and develop a refrigerant
management plan reflecting the
company’s implementation objectives.
Implementation of the Partners’
refrigeration management plan to reduce
refrigerant emissions enhances the
protection of the environment and may
save Partners money and improve
operational efficiency. The GreenChill
Program offers the opportunity for any
individual store to earn GreenChill
Certification at the silver-, gold-,
platinum-, or other level when it
demonstrates that the amount of
refrigerant used is below a specified
limit, based on the store’s million
British Thermal Units per hour (MBTU/
hr) cooling load, and that the refrigerant
emitted from the store in the prior 12
months is below a specified percentage
depending on each GreenChill Store
Certification level. Information
submitted for the certification of
individual stores is compared to these
set criteria for each certification level.
The certification of a store provides the
opportunity for broad recognition
within the food retail industry and with
the store’s customers.
