Modification to 2008 National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Permit for Stormwater Discharges From Construction Activities
EPA Regions 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 today are proposing for public comment a modification to the 2008 National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) general permits for stormwater discharges associated with construction activity in order to extend by one-year the expiration date of the permit. Hereinafter, these NPDES general permits will be referred to as ``permit'' or ``2008 construction general permit'' or ``2008 CGP.'' The 2008 CGP was originally issued for a period not to exceed two (2) years. Today, EPA proposes to modify the CGP in order to extend the 2 year term of the 2008 CGP by one year so that it expires on June 30, 2011, instead of June 30, 2010. If EPA finalizes this action, the 2008 CGP will be in effect for a period of three (3) years. By Federal law, no NPDES permit may be issued for a period that exceeds five (5) years.

National Primary Drinking Water Regulations: Drinking Water Regulations for Aircraft Public Water Systems
The Environmental Protection Agency is establishing Federal drinking water requirements (known as national primary drinking water regulations or NPDWRs) for aircraft public water systems (hereafter, aircraft water systems) under the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). Federal drinking water standards were primarily designed to regulate water quality in stationary public water systems, and the application of these requirements to mobile water systems with the capability of flying throughout the world has created implementation challenges. This final rule's requirements are intended to tailor existing health-based drinking water standards to the unique characteristics of aircraft water systems for the enhanced protection of public health against illnesses attributable to microbiological contamination. EPA believes that this approach will better protect public health while building upon existing aircraft operations and maintenance programs, better coordinate Federal programs that regulate aircraft water systems, and minimize disruptions of aircraft flight schedules.
