Public Water System Supervision Program Approval for the State of
Ohio

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of tentative approval.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) has tentatively approved a revision to the State of Ohio's
Public Water System Supervision Program under the federal Safe Drinking
Water Act (SDWA) by adopting the Arsenic Rule. The EPA has determined
this revision is no less stringent than the corresponding federal
regulation. Therefore, EPA intends to approve this revision to the
State of Ohio's Public Water System Supervision Program, thereby giving
the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency primary enforcement
responsibility for this regulation.

DATES: Any interested party may request a public hearing on this
determination. A request for a public hearing must be submitted by
September 9, 2020. The EPA Region 5 Administrator may deny frivolous or
insubstantial requests for a hearing. However, if a substantial request
for a public hearing is made by September 9, 2020, EPA Region 5 will
hold a public hearing, and a notice of such hearing will be published
in the Federal Register and a newspaper of general circulation. Any
request for a public hearing shall include the following information:
The name, address, and telephone number of the individual,
organization, or other entity requesting a hearing; a brief statement
of the requesting person's interest in the Regional Administrator's
determination and a brief statement of the information that the
requesting person intends to submit at such hearing; and 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.
    If EPA Region 5 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 determination shall become final and
effective on September 9, 2020 and no further public notice will be
issued.
