Safe Drinking Water Enforcement Oversight. The State agrees that EPA will use the new version of the Uniform Enforcement Oversight System (UEOS) for evaluating the State’s enforcement performance in FY 2011. The State will be given the opportunity to reconcile the national database information and review a draft report of the assessment before the enforcement evaluation is finalized. EPA will evaluate UEOS Questions 6 and 7 to determine whether the State addressed the priority water systems appearing on each quarterly version of the ETT list within 6 months (while acknowledging the inflated number of priority systems due to violations not being automatically RTC’d) and whether the State escalates enforcement when a PWS violates an existing formal enforcement action. EPA will conduct an on-site audit in FY 2011 and focus on complete and accurate uploading of violations to SDWIS-Fed. The State will continue to provide access to State PWS files and data for EPA’s on-site enforcement review. The State will upload all ETT priority related enforcement actions and applicable return to compliance (RTC) codes into SDWIS-Fed quarterly for all such actions completed by that date. EPA encourages the State to develop management tools to ensure that enforcement actions are uploaded to SDWIS-Fed. This could include evaluating the success of the employee’s responsible for this data entry during their performance appraisal. EPA will also exert its influence with EPA’s Headquarters to encourage an automated RTC functionality into SDWIS-State and/or SDWIS-FED. Both the State and EPA recognizes that not uploading enforcement actions not only creates false ETT priority systems but also provides a misrepresentation of the State’s enforcement efforts to anyone using the national database. EPA recognizes that entering return to compliance (RTC) enforcement actions involves: a) the recognition of an RTC condition, a less than intuitive task given the myriad number of samples received by State and the expansive number of applicable EPA rules, b) identifying all violations that qualify to be RTC’d, c) determining the violation ID numbers for each of those violations, and d) entering the appropriate enforcement action codes and attaching them to the previously identified violation ID’s. EPA acknowledges that when State undertakes this overhead type of activity, State is serving the database so that the database can serve EPA. EPA recognizes that SDWIS-State, as it now exists without the RTC module, is not a tool to help State...
