| 00-13546 | National Primary Drinking Water Regulations; Arsenic and Clarifications to Compliance and New Source Contaminants Monitoring | Proposed Rule | The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing a drinking water regulation for arsenic, as required by the 1996 amendments to the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). The proposed health- based, non-enforceable goal, or Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG), for arsenic is zero, and the proposed enforceable standard, or maximum contaminant level (MCL), for arsenic is 0.005 mg/L. EPA is also requesting comment on 0.003 mg/L, 0.010 mg/L and 0.020 mg/L for the MCL. EPA is listing technologies that will meet the MCL, including affordable compliance technologies for three categories of small systems serving less than 10,000 people. This proposal also includes monitoring, reporting, public notification, and consumer confidence report requirements and State primacy revisions for public drinking water programs affected by the arsenic regulation. In addition, in this proposal the Agency is clarifying compliance for State-determined monitoring after exceedances for inorganic, volatile organic, and synthetic organic contaminants. Finally, EPA is proposing that States will specify the time period and sampling frequency for new public water systems and systems using a new source of water to demonstrate compliance with the MCLs. The requirement for new systems and new source monitoring will be effective for inorganic, volatile organic, and synthetic organic contaminants. | 2000-06-22 | 2000 | 6 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2000/06/22/00-13546/national-primary-drinking-water-regulations-arsenic-and-clarifications-to-compliance-and-new-source | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-06-22/pdf/00-13546.pdf | Environmental Protection Agency | 145 | The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing a drinking water regulation for arsenic, as required by the 1996 amendments to the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA).
