The Safe Drinking Water Act directs EPA to promulgate requirements for disinfection of ground water‐based drinking water systems. The Ground‐ water Disinfection Rule regulatory workgroup, made up of representatives from EPA, the states, and other interested parties, is actively considering the issues for the wide range of elements necessary to ensure a regulation that will protect public health and can be feasibly implemented. This regulation is likely to require disinfection of ground water sources and systems found to be contaminated or vulnerable to contamination.
