ASDWA Submits Comments on UCMR6 Analytical Methods
On Monday, April 8, 2024, ASDWA submitted Final Comments on UCMR6 Methods in response to EPA’s February 8, 2024, request for comment (EPA-HQ-OW-2023-0469). ASDWA outlines the importance of the Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule to the regulatory development process, as well as concerns regarding laboratory capacity and the pre-mature inclusion of microplastics without a clear definition of microplastics by EPA. ASDWA encouraged EPA to continue to work with state co-regulators in the development of analytical methods and future regulations.
