Economics

EPA is developing a new regulatory impact analysis framwork for proposed drinking water regulations. The Safe Drinking Water Act, as amended in 1996, requires that whenever EPA proposes a national primary drinking water regulation, EPA must publish a cost-benefit analysis. Components of the analysis include treatment design, unit treatment costs and national costs, model systems development, baseline estimates, data quality objectives, and benefits analysis.
