Public Water System Supervision Program Revision for the State of 
Florida

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of tentative approval.

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

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the State of Florida is revising 
its approved Public Water System Supervision Program. Florida has 
adopted drinking water regulations for Lead and Copper and the 
definition of a Public Water System. EPA has determined that these sets 
of revisions are no less stringent than the corresponding Federal 
regulations. Therefore, EPA intends on approving this State program 
revision.
    All interested parties may request a public hearing. A request for 
a public hearing must be submitted by April 22, 2002 to the Regional 
Administrator at the address shown below. Frivolous or insubstantial 
requests for a hearing may be denied by the Regional Administrator. 
However, if a substantial request for a public hearing is made by April 
22, 2002, a public hearing will be held. If no timely and appropriate 
request for a hearing is received and the Regional Administrator does 
not elect to hold a hearing on his own motion, this determination shall 
become final and effective on April 22, 2002.
    Any request for a public hearing shall include the following 
information: (1) The name, address, and telephone number of the 
individual organization, or other entity requesting a hearing; (2) 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; (3) 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.

ADDRESSES: All documents relating to this determination are available 
for inspection between the hours of 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday 
through Friday, at the following offices:
