SDWA History
1974: Establish basic program and National Primary Drinking Water Regulations
1986: Accelerate pace of drinking water standards; 83 by 1989 and 25 every 3 years
1996: Risk based priority setting• Target contaminants posing greatest threat
• Emphasis on sound science and data collection

Our mandates - SDWA Statutes: Regulation Determination 1412(b)(1)(B)(ii)
• Not later than 5 years after the date of enactment (by Aug 6, 2001) and every five years thereafter.
• For not fewer than 5 contaminants.
• After notice of the preliminary determination and opportunity for public comment.
• A determination not to regulate a contaminant shall be considered final agency action and subject to judicial review.

Our mandates - SDWA Statutes: Regulation, Health Advisories and Other Actions 1412(b)(1)(E)
• Propose MCLGs and NPDWRs no later that 24 months after the determination to regulate and may publish them concurrently.
• Publish MCLGs and promulgate NPDWRs within 18 months after the proposal thereof, and may extend the deadline for such promulgation for up to 9 months.
• Publish health advisories (which are not regulations) or take other appropriate actions for contaminants not subject to any NPDWRs.

Developing the CCL
• 1996 SDWA - establish a list of contaminants to aid in priority setting for Agency’s drinking water program
• Consultation with stakeholders and National Drinking Water Advisory Council
• Public water utilities, environmental and public interest groups, state regulatory agencies, public health offices

CCL Purpose
• A list of contaminants not subject to NPDWR, known to occur, that may require regulation.
• Primary source of priority contaminants for dw program.• Focus and prioritize research agenda (Research Strategy)
• Source for selection of contaminants to monitor (UCMR)
Make regulatory determinations for at least 5 Make regulatory determinations for at least 5 contaminants by August 2001 and every 5 years aftercontaminants by August 2001 and every 5 years after

SDWA Criteria to Regulate (1412(b)(1)(A))
Publish MCLG and promulgate NPDWRs if the Administrator determines that:(i) The contaminant may have an adverse effect on
the health of persons;(ii) The contaminant is known to occur or there is
substantial likelihood that the contaminant will occur in public water systems with a frequency and at levels of public health concern; and
(iii) Regulation of the contaminant presents a meaningful opportunity for health risk reduction for persons served by public water systems.

What is our Approach in making Determinations? • NRC report: “Setting Priorities for Drinking Water
Contaminants”
• Stakeholder meetings
• AWWRF and NDWAC efforts - Approaches for selecting contaminants and recommended protocols for making reg determinations
