ORDER O~?THE BOARD (by 0. Satchell):

petition for exemption, pursuant to Section 1416(b)(2)(B)(i) of

the federal Safe Drinking Water Act, from the limitation on

maximum barium concentration in Rule 304(B)(4) of Chapter 6:

Public Water Supplies. To obtain the requested relief Petitioner

should petition for a variance from Rule 304(B)(4) purusant to

Part IV of the Procedural Rules, The petition should contain

analysis showing compliance with the Safe Drinking Water Act

Procedural Rule 401(f). To obtain a variance, Petitioner must

show both arbitrary and unreasonable hardship within the meaning
