Public Water System Supervision Program Revisions for the State 
of Wisconsin

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice of tentative approval.

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

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the State of Wisconsin is revising 
its approved Public Water System Supervision Program. Wisconsin has 
revised its Public Notification (PN) Rule; its Lead and Copper Rule 
Minor Revisions (LCRMR) Rule; and Radionuclides Rule.
    EPA has determined that these revisions by the State are no less 
stringent than the corresponding federal regulations. Therefore, EPA 
intends to approve these revisions to the State of Wisconsin's Public 
Water System Supervision Program. This approval action does not extend 
to public water systems (PWSs) in Indian Country, as that term is 
defined in 18 U.S.C. 1151. By approving these rules, EPA does not 
intend to affect the rights of federally recognized Indian tribes in 
Wisconsin, nor does it intend to limit existing rights of the State of 
Wisconsin.
    Any interested party may request a public hearing. A request for a 
public hearing must be submitted by February 3, 2006, to the Regional 
Administrator at the EPA Region 5 address shown below. The Regional 
Administrator may deny frivolous or insubstantial requests for a 
hearing. However, if a substantial request for a public hearing is made 
by February 3, 2006, EPA Region 5 will hold a public hearing. 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 February 3, 2006. 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.

ADDRESSES: All documents relating to this determination are available 
for inspection at the following offices: Wisconsin Department of 
Natural Resource, DG-2, 2nd Floor, 101 South Webster, PO Box 7921, 
Madison, Wisconsin 53707, between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 4 p.m.,
