| 94-17650 | National Primary Drinking Water Regulations: Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Requirements; Proposed Rule ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY | Uncategorized Document | EPA is proposing to amend the Surface Water Treatment Rule to provide additional protection against disease-causing organisms (pathogens) in drinking water. This action would primarily focus on treatment requirements for the waterborne pathogens Giardia, Cryptosporidium, and viruses. With the exception of one requirement (sanitary surveys), this action would apply to all public water systems that use surface water or ground water under the influence of surface water, and serve 10,000 people or more. Among the features of the rule would be a stricter watershed control requirement for systems using surface water that wish to avoid filtration; a change in the definition of ground water under the influence of surface water to include the presence of Cryptosporidium; a periodic sanitary survey requirement for all systems using surface water or ground water under the influence of surface water, including those that serve fewer than 10,000 people; a health goal (maximum contaminant level goal) of zero for Cryptosporidium; and several alternative requirements for augmenting treatment control of Giardia, Cryptosporidium, and viruses. | 1994-07-29 | 1994 | 7 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1994/07/29/94-17650/national-primary-drinking-water-regulations-enhanced-surface-water-treatment-requirements-proposed | EPA is proposing to amend the Surface Water Treatment Rule to provide additional protection against disease-causing organisms (pathogens) in drinking water.
