Cook Further Explains USEPA lead Rule
This letter was written in response to an item in the Update section of the June 1989 JOURNAL discussing possible changes in the EPA rule to control lead in drinking water including a tap‐sampling provision. That provision was established to trigger a treatment technique requirement rather than an MCL violation. While reviewing comments on the proposal, EPA has not yet made a decision as to whether the final rule will retain a treatment technique similar to the one proposed or whether it will establish an MCL at consumers' taps. To the extent that the final lead rule contains a monitoring protocol–and most certainly it will‐EPA still envisions requiring tap sampling to determine: (1) whether a water system has a lead problem and (2) whether that system has applied optimal corrosion control so as to reduce the contribution of lead corrosion by‐products.
