Aeromonas and NDPWR Methods Rule

The comment period is closed on the rule titled "Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Regulation: Approval of Analytical Method for Aeromonas; National Primary and Secondary Drinking Water Regulations: Approval of Analytical Methods for Chemical and Microbiological Contaminants; Proposed Rule," (PDF, 181KB) March 7, 2002.

This rule proposed the analytical method and an associated Minimum Reporting Level (MRL) for the analysis of Aeromonas to support the Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Regulation's List 2 monitoring. Additionally, EPA proposed to approve EPA Method 515.4 to support previously required National Primary Drinking Water Regulation (NPDWR) compliance monitoring for 2,4-D (as acid, salts and esters), 2,4,5-TP (Silvex), dinoseb, pentachlorophenol, picloram and dalapon, and EPA Method 531.2 to support previously required NPDWR monitoring for carbofuran and oxamyl. Finally, EPA proposed to approve eight additional industry developed analytical methods to support previously required NPDWR compliance monitoring. The following table lists the analytical methods proposed in this action and the regulated or UCMR analytes that they measure.
