Future directions in water quality regulations
Regulatory activity will accelerate over the next few years as USEPA works to meet the requirements imposed by the 1996 SDWA amendments.
The Safe Drinking Water Act amendments of 1996 have imposed new requirements on the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) to establish drinking water regulations. The regulatory process has been revised and now requires the use of sound science. Costs, benefits, and competing risks may also be considered. Current regulations for fluoride, volatile organic chemicals, total coliforms, surface water treatment, Phase II and Phase V synthetic organic and inorganic contaminants, and lead and copper remain basically unchanged. New deadlines are established for the regulation of arsenic, sulfate, radon, disinfectants and disinfection by‐products, enhanced surface water treatment, and groundwater disinfection.
