Summary

On July 20, 21st and 26, Region III issued several Administrative Orders for Compliance (AOs) to several public water systems (PWSs) for failure to comply with the requirements of Section 1433 of the SDWA, as amended by the America's Water Infrastructure Act (AWIA) of 2018. Section 1433 required that PWSs serving over 3,300 people conduct a Risk and Resilience Assessment (RRA) of the PWS including risks of malevolent acts and natural hazards. Within six months after the RRA, the PWS had to revise its emergency response plan (ERP) to address the RRA findings. Covered PWSs had to certify to EPA that they had conducted the RRA and revised the ERP by the deadlines specified by AWIA. EPA issued the AOs to six PWSs that had not complied with these requirements: Zelienople Borough, PA; White Sulphur Springs Water, WV; Greater Harrison PSD Lost Creek Mt Clare, WV; St Albans Water, WV; Eastern Wyoming PSD Stephenson WTP, WV; and Williamstown Water Department, WV. EPA directly implements the Section 1433 requirements but EPA has notified PA and WV of the actions against the facilities in those states.
