The Department is adopting the Short Term Rule Revisions to Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations Part 141, Subpart I-Control of Lead and Copper because it is a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) primacy requirement for the Department’s public water system supervision program. These amendments will bolster the implementation of the Lead and Copper Rule for monitoring, treatment processes, public education, customer awareness, and lead service line replacement for public drinking water systems. Community water systems and non-transient, non-community water systems are required to optimize corrosion control treatment such that lead and copper concentrations at consumers’ taps are minimized while ensuring that the corrosion control treatment does not cause the violation of any national primary drinking water regulation. On October 10, 2007, EPA revised and clarified the federal lead and copper rule. The Department intends to adopt the Short Term Rule Revisions by reference with the addition of clarifications (in the federal rule the term “State” shall mean “Department”) and from 40 CFR 141.85 to disallow time extension to conduct public education requirements following a lead action level exceedance for community water systems and non-transient non-community water systems. The major changes in the federal Short Term Revisions Rule include clarification of the minimum number of lead and copper tap samples required and an alternative sampling schedule for systems collecting the minimum number of samples, clarification of the timing of actions following an action level exceedance including the timing of public education requirements and water quality parameter monitoring, modification of the requirements for systems on a reduced monitoring schedule to include meeting both the optimal water quality parameters and the lead and copper action levels, modification of the requirements for systems on a reduced monitoring schedule to include advance notification to the state of any long-term change in water treatment or the addition of a new source of water, requirement to notify occupants of homes and buildings participating in a system’s monitoring program of their tap sampling results, revision of public notification message content, modification of public notification delivery and timing, modification of Consumer Confidence Report requirements, and modification of the methodology used to deem lead service lines replaced through testing under lead service line replacement requirements.

-
The proposed changes are necessary to conform to new state law in Section 101.62, Florida Statutes, as amended by s. 7 of Chapter 2010-167, Laws of Florida. The new law specifies a timeframe for compiling and simultaneously uploading to the Division of Elections electronically absentee ballot request information for an upcoming primary or general election. Previously, the law was silent as to when that process had to begin so the Division set the time parameter at 45 days before an election to correspond with the timing of absentee ballot mail-outs. Once adopted this revision will supersede the emergency rule (1SER10-1) that had to be adopted (effective July 1, 2010) since regular rulemaking could not be completed prior to the effective date of the new law. The proposed revisions to Rule 1S-2.043, Florida Administrative Code, contain most of the same provisions that appear in the emergency rule and reflect the current procedures in place. The proposed revisions also clarify that all request information including standing requests are to be included for the primary and general election file upload. There are also some technical corrections to a statutory cross-references.
