Annual Water Quality Reports
• GWR violations• Contaminant detections for sampling done under GWR
Public Notice• EC+ AND less than 4-log treatment = Public Health Hazard = BWN• Treatment Technique – Notice in 30 Days• Identified Significant Deficiency not corrected in 120 days – - Notice in 30 days.
LHD Reporting within 1 business day• Systems providing 4-Log treatment AND failure to meet monitoring requirements• Treatment technique failure
LHD Reporting within 30 days• Systems not providing 4-Log treatment with TC+ - All sample results• Corrective action completion
Consecutive System Reporting within 24 hours• TC+ in distribution system – Report to Wholesale System
Wholesale System to Consecutive System • EC + in source, same as Public Notification• Other Public Notifications
Boil Water Notice- statement issued by the PWS advising
public to boil water due to possible bacterial threat
Boil Water Order- directive issued by the LHD to the system
requiring public notification, including boiling of water
“Tier 1 notification requirements (public health hazards, as defined in subdivision 5-1.1 (bc) of this Subpart, require Tier 1 notification).”
What is a public health hazard?
“Public health hazard means an existing or imminent condition which can be responsible for or cause illness, injury or death and for which immediate corrective or remedial action isrequired.”
• E. Coli • Turbidity • Unapproved source• Inadequate disinfection• Loss of pressure• Total coliform • Disruption of service for 4 or more hours• We tell you it is
“disruption of water service of four hours or more, determined by the State to present anexisting or imminent condition which can be responsible for or cause illness, injury or deathand for which immediate corrective or remedial action is required;”“turbidity violations or exceedances specified in paragraph 5-1.78(d)(3) of this Subpart anddetermined by the State to present an existing or imminent condition which can be responsiblefor or cause illness, injury or death and for which immediate corrective or remedial action is required;
• Morning check reveals chlorinator down • Distribution sample shows 0.04 residual• Entry point shows 0.0 residual
• Lab notifies of initial TC+• Lab gets re-sample• Notice & fix chlorinator issue• Lab confirms TC +
