We have been testing extensively for MTBE and perchlorate during the past few years. Will the grandfather clause allow these data to be used to meet the requirements of the UCMR?
The UCMR has a grandfather clause for data (§141.35(g)). However, to meet the regulatory requirements of the UCMR, this data must meet the reporting requirements of §141.35 in the revised UCMR (September 17, 1999). This is so that EPA can establish a nationally consistent database for making decisions relative to these contaminants. EPA certainly encourages the use of existing data to save resources.
