Public Water System Supervision Program Revision for the State of New Mexico
Notice is hereby given that the State of New Mexico is revising its approved Public Water System Supervision Program. New Mexico has adopted the Ground Water Rule (GWR), the Long Term 2 Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule (LT2) and the Stage 2 Disinfection By Products Rule (ST2). The purpose of these rules is to improve control and reduce the risk of microbial pathogens in drinking water and to address risk trade-offs with disinfection byproducts. EPA has determined that the GWR, LT2, and ST2 revisions submitted by New Mexico are no less stringent than the corresponding Federal regulation. Therefore, EPA intends to approve the program revisions.
Outer Continental Shelf Air Regulations Consistency Update for California
EPA is proposing to update a portion of the Outer Continental Shelf (``OCS'') Air Regulations. Requirements applying to OCS sources located within 25 miles of States' seaward boundaries must be updated periodically to remain consistent with the requirements of the corresponding onshore area (``COA''), as mandated by section 328(a)(1) of the Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990 (``the Act''). The portion of the OCS air regulations that is being updated pertains to the requirements for OCS sources for which the Santa Barbara County Air Pollution Control District (``Santa Barbara APCD'' or ``District'') is the designated COA. The intended effect of approving the OCS requirements for the Santa Barbara APCD is to regulate emissions from OCS sources in accordance with the requirements onshore. The changes to the existing requirements discussed below are proposed to be incorporated by reference into the Code of Federal Regulations and listed in the appendix to the OCS air regulations.
