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

years,” Schramm said.
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

The EPA is attempting to
enforce the drinking water
program by forming a task
