REQUIREMENTS FOR PUBLIC WATER SYSTEMS THAT ARE OUT OF COMPLIANCE

Overview

RULE:

62-560.400	Scope of Drinking Water Public Notification Rules
62-560.410	Public Notification - Primary Standards

PURPOSE:

The Department is adopting the national Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule (D/DBPR), including revisions to best available technology (BAT) for disinfection byproducts. Also, the Department is updating the State’s “Standard Health Effects Language for Public Notification,” so it is consistent with the national primary drinking water regulations.

SUMMARY:

Rules 62-560.400 and 62-560.410, F.A.C., are being amended to reference the current edition of Appendix B to Subpart Q in Part 141 of Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations, “Standard Health Effects Language for Public Notification.” Table 2 in Chapter 62-560, F.A.C., is being amended to incorporate the Stage 2 D/DBPR BAT for compliance with the Stage 2 D/DBPR maximum contaminant levels for total trihalomethanes and haloacetic acids (five). There are a number of Department of Environmental Protection rules that reference these rules being amended. Rules 62-550.200, 62-550.310, 62-550.500, 62-550.512, 62-550.518, and 62-550.821, F.A.C., reference Rule 62-560.410, F.A.C., but the amendment to Rule 62-560.410, F.A.C., will have no effect on those rules.
