  • Water Related Regulations: Which Government Agency Is Responsible?
    Water Related Regulations: Which Government Agency Is Responsible? Overview (The information in this section was modified from the Virginia Water Resources Research Center’s “For the Record,” Virginia Water Central, April 2000, April 2004, and August 2004 editions) Federal Water Regulations Federal regulations cover drinking water safety, water quality in the nation’s water bodies, use of navigable waters, wetlands activities, interstate transportation on waterways, certain dams and dam related activities, and many other areas. Existing Regulations The Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) compiles the rules published in the Federal Register. The CFR is divided into 50 titles covering broad areas. Title 40, for example, is “Protection of the Environment” and contains many EPA regulations. Internet users should go to http://www.gpoaccess.gov/cfr/index.html for an index of, and links to, all the CFR titles. For paper copies of CFR titles (for a charge), contact the U.S. Government Printing Office (GPO) Access Order Desk at (866)-512-1800 or [email protected]. Agencies Appearing in the Code of Federal Regulations The alphabetical list of agencies with pertinent CFR titles can be found in “Appendix C” of the U.S. Government Manual at www.gpoaccess.gov/gmanual/index.html. Internet sites for regulatory information from some key water- related federal agencies are listed below (addresses correct as of 7/15/05): Environmental Protection Agency – www.epa.gov/epahome/rules.html.
