Sec.  121.23  Notice and hearing.

    The Regional Administrator will provide public notice of each 
request for certification by mailing to State, County, and municipal 
authorities, heads of State agencies responsible for water quality 
improvement, and other parties known to be interested in the matter, 
including adjacent property owners and conservation organizations, or 
may provide such notice in a newspaper of general circulation in the 
area in which the activity is proposed to be conducted if the Regional 
Administrator deems mailed notice to be impracticable. Interested 
parties shall be provided an opportunity to comment on such request in 
such manner as the Regional Administrator deems appropriate. All 
interested and affected parties will be given reasonable opportunity to 
present evidence and testimony at a public hearing on the question 
whether to grant or deny certification if the Regional Administrator 
determines that such a hearing is necessary or appropriate.
