Title: Status report on development of regulations for disinfectants and disinfection by-products

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6721665

The purpose of this document is to indicate the status of regulation development for the disinfectants (Ds) and disinfection by-products (DBPs) and to solicit feedback from the public. Previously, EPA made available to the public a strawman rule (October 1989) and a conceptual framework for developing these regulations (December 1990). This document reflects EPA's current thinking on how the criteria for the D/DBP regulations are evolving. The document consists of four sections: (1) overview of anticipated general requirements of the rule and major issues, (2) fact sheet on the status of pertinent analytical methods, (3) fact sheet on the status of health effects information, and (4) draft compliance monitoring requirements.
