—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, November 19,1977 120 More water quality control needed PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Environmental Protection Agency Region 111 ad ministrator Jack J. Schramm said recently that Pennsylvania needs much greater control over its drinking water quality and waste disposal to reduce the contamination of State water supplies and related waterborne disease out breaks. ‘‘Pennsylvania ranks third in the Nation in generating solid waste and hazardous materials and for the past three years has led the nation in the number of waterborne disease out breaks,” said Schramm at a luncheon held in the Scranton-Wilkes-Barre area. “I think that these facts should be of concern to every Pennsylvanian. Without greater control over drinking water quality and solid waste hazardous material disposal, these PUBLIC SALE Saturday, November 26,1977 11:30 A.M.

He said that when Congress passed the Safe Drinking Water Act and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, it decided that while' uniform stan dards could be best carried out by the states. Pennsylvania has already declined the primary responsibility to enforce drinking water standards and has indicated that it will probably not accept the responsibility for solid waste when the opportunity presents itself. If a state refuses to accept primacy, the EPA must then take the responsibility. Schramm said that the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Resources, who would carry out the enforcement programs, would be willing to accept the responsibility with; more. support from the State legislature. He said that DER feels there has been a loss of momentum m the en vironmental movement in Pennsylvania. Legislative support is necessary to make changes in the State’s drinking water and solid waste laws before Penn sylvania can assume primary enforcement lesponsibility. The EPA is attempting to enforce the drinking water program by forming a task force with DER and County health departments and PUBLIC SALE VALUABLE 110 ACRE FARM, FARM EQPT., HOUSEHOLD GOODS, TOOLS, ANTIQUES, CAR AND TRUCK SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 28,1977 Located app. 2 miles east of Pine Grove, 13 miles west of Schuylkill Haven on Route 443, Wayne Township, Schuylkill County, Pa.
