ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

[FRL-5950-2]


National Drinking Water Advisory Council; Request for Nominations

    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) invites all interested 
persons to suggest individuals to serve as members of a working group 
that will be formed to provide advice to the National Drinking Water 
Advisory Council on how the new Safe Drinking Water Act approach to 
benefits and costs should be implemented in the decision making 
process. The Council was established to provide practical and 
independent advice, consultation, and recommendations to the Agency on 
the activities, functions and policies related to the Act as amended. 
At the October 15 and 16, 1997, meeting of the Council, it was decided 
that a working group should be formed to provide this specific input. 
Following reports from the working group, the Advisory Council will 
consider recommendations to forward directly to EPA.
    Because membership on this group will be limited and must be 
representative of balanced views, selections will be made by the 
Director, Office of Ground Water and Drinking Water, based on drinking 
water expertise and demonstrated interest in drinking water policy. Any 
interested person or organization may suggest an individual for a 
position on this working group. Candidates should be identified by 
name, occupation, position, address and telephone number.
    Persons selected for membership are responsible for any expenses 
that would be incurred while attending meetings. Suggestions should be 
submitted to Charlene E. Shaw, Designated Federal Officer, National 
Drinking Water Advisory Council, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 
Office of Ground Water and Drinking Water (4601), 401 M Street, SW, 
Washington, D.C. 20460, no later than January 28, 1998.
    The Agency will not formally acknowledge or respond to nominations. 
E-Mail your questions to [email protected] or call 202-260-
2285.

    Dated: January 9, 1998.
Elizabeth Fellows,
Acting Director, Office of Ground Water and Drinking Water.
