Public Water System Supervision Program Revision for the State of 
Oklahoma

AGENCY: United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of proposed approval.

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

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the State of Oklahoma is revising 
its approved Public Water System Supervision Program adopting new 
regulations for the Lead and Copper Rule (LCR) Short-Term Regulatory 
Revisions and Clarifications, promulgated and published in the Federal 
Register at 72 FR 57782 on October 10, 2007. Oklahoma has adopted the 
LCR Short-Term Regulatory Revisions and Clarifications to strengthen 
the implementation of the LCR for more effective protection of public 
health by reducing exposure to lead in drinking water. EPA has 
determined that the proposed program revision submitted by Oklahoma for 
the LCR Short-Term Regulatory Revisions and Clarifications are no less 
stringent than the corresponding Federal regulations. Therefore, EPA 
proposes to approve these program revisions.

DATES: All interested parties may request a public hearing. A request 
for a public hearing must be submitted by April 5, 2010 to the Regional 
Administrator at the EPA Region 6 address shown below. Requests for a 
hearing may be denied by the Regional Administrator. However, if a 
substantial request for a public hearing is made by April 5, 2010, 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 5, 2010. 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
