Title: Drinking Water Contaminant Candidate List 2
Abstract: The Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), as amended in 1996, requires the EPA to publish a list of contaminants which, at the time of publication, are not subject to any proposed or promulgated national primary drinking water regulations (NPDWRs), that are known or anticipated to occur in public water systems, and which may require regulations under SDWA (section 1412(b)(1)). SDWA, as amended, specifies that EPA must publish the first list of drinking water contaminants no later than 18 months after the date of enactment, i.e., by February, 1998 (henceforth referred to as the 1998 Contaminant Candidate List or the 1998 CCL), and every five years thereafter. The CCL2 Federal Register notice announces EPA's decision to carryover the 1998 CCL as the draft CCL2 (minus the nine contaminants addressed under the 2003 regulatory determination), provides information on EPA's efforts to expand and strengthen the underlying CCL listing process to be used for future listings, and requests comment on CCL-related activities to improve the drinking water contaminant listing process.
