Overview The Maine Drinking Water Program: An Overview The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) established the Public Water System Supervision (PWSS) Program under the authority of the 1974 Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). Under the SDWA and the 1986 Amendments, EPA set national limits on contaminant levels in drinking water to ensure that the water is safe for human consumption. These limits are known as Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCL) and Maximum Disinfectant Residual Levels (MRDL). For some regulations, EPA establishes treatment techniques in lieu of an MCL to control unacceptable levels of contaminants in water. The agency also regulates how often public water systems (PWS) monitor their water for contaminants and report the monitoring results to the states or EPA.

  • Let's Toast 8 Amazing Skiers & Visionaries Who Made Maine The
    2013 Where most people saw snow, they envisioned mountains of opportunity. Let’s toast 8 amazing skiers & visionaries who made Maine the way skiing should be. Class of 2013 Induction Maine Ski Hall of Fame Friday, October 25, 2013 Lost Valley Ski Resort Auburn, Maine Page 1 PROGRAM Masters of Ceremonies Greg Sweetser • Dave Irons • John Williams • John ChrisƟ e Class of 2013 Rand Stowell Howard Paradis Craig Gray Will Farnham Bruce Cole Randy Kerr Greg Poirier Gail Blackburn M ISSION STATEMENT The mission of the Maine Ski Hall of Fame is to recognize those skiers, who through their efforts and achievements have brought distinction to Maine skiing. Some of these skiers made their mark in competition. Others were founders who built the sport into a way of life for so many Mainers. Still more were teachers who led countless skiers and competitors into our sport. Some had an intense impact on local skiers while others gained prominence on an international scale. Thanks to these skiers Maine has an industry that is a vital part of the economy, not only in the mountains, but throughout the state. It is to recognize the importance of skiing to Maine and its citizens that the Maine ski Hall of Fame has been formed. By enshrining those men and women who founded and built the sport in Maine, competitors who brought prominence to Maine skiing, their coaches and mentors, and others who have made significant contributions, we shall create a permanent record of their endeavors and achievements. By doing this we shall preserve this history for those to follow, that they may understand the great achievements of these individuals.
