Approval Order

Public Meeting held

Commissioners Voting: John R. McGinley, Jr., Esq., Chairperson, by phone; Alvin C. Bush, Vice Chairperson, by phone; Daniel F. Clark, Esq.; Arthur Coccodrilli; Murray Ufberg, Esq.

Environmental Quality Board--Safe Drinking Water; Long Term 1 Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule; Regulation No. 7-384

   On July 15, 2003, the Independent Regulatory Review Commission (Commission) received this proposed regulation from the Environmental Quality Board (Board). This rulemaking amends 25 Pa. Code Chapter 109. The proposed regulation was published in the July 26, 2003, Pennsylvania Bulletin with a 30-day public comment period. The final-form regulation was submitted to the Commission on March 23, 2004.

   The regulation amends existing provisions in the Safe Drinking Water program. It will extend measures designed to control and reduce Cryptosporidium to public drinking water systems serving less than 10,000 people. The amendments represent the second phase in adopting Federal standards to protect the public from Cryptosporidium.

   We have determined this regulation is consistent with the statutory authority of the Board (35 P. S. § 721.4(a) and 71 P. S. § 510-20(b)) and the intention of the General Assembly. Having considered all of the other criteria of the Regulatory Review Act, we find promulgation of this regulation is in the public interest.

By Order of the Commission:

   This regulation is approved.

JOHN R. MCGINLEY, Jr.,   
Chairperson
