Dear Brett Chynoweth:
Subject: Public Drinking Water Requirements for Tropic Town Water System , UTAH09008
According to the Division of Drinking Water ’s records, Tropic Town Water System is a
Community water system that now serves a population of about 586 people.
This population change results in the following changes to your systems sampling requirements
as follows:
Disinfection Byproducts (DBPs) Sampling
The water system’s Disinfection Byproducts (DBP) sampling requirement has changed. The
system is now required to collect one (1) DBP sample every three years. Each sample must be a
dual sample set of total trihalomethanes (TTHMs) and haloacetic acids (HAA5). The samples
will need to be collected during the warmest temperature calendar quarter (July through
September). The next DBP sample(s) must be collected during the July 1 - September 30, 2026,
monitoring period. For any questions regarding the DBP rule contact Luke Treutel at (385)
258-6084 or ltreutel@utah.gov.
A current monitoring schedule for your system has been enclosed. If this letter is in error please
contact me at (801) 641-6457 or mberger@utah.gov within 30 days. Thank you for your efforts
in maintaining a safe drinking water system.

Stage 2 Disinfectant Byproduct (DBP) Sampling Plan
In accordance with State of Utah Rule R309-210-10(3): Any Community (COM) or Non-Transient Non-Community
(NTNC) drinking water system that regularly applies a chemical disinfectant must develop and implement a DBP
monitoring plan. The system must maintain current version of the plan on file and submit a copy of 1) the monitoring
plan, 2) a schematic of the distribution system, and 3) the justification for site selection (IDSE water, modeling analysis,
etc.) to the Division of Drinking Water.

SITE SELECTION INFO
Associated Rules:
R309-210-9(2)(b)(i)(Q): A dual sample set (i.e., a TTHM and an HAA5 sample) must be
taken at each monitoring location during each monitoring period.
Associated Info:
Disinfection By Product Sampling
schedules are based on
population and source water
type. DBPs may be required
quarterly, annually, or every
three years. For a complete list of
possible schedules please see
associated DBP handout.
•One dual sample set must be taken at the
highest TTHM (trihalomethanes) sampling
site, at a location that represents
maximum residence time; typically in the
furthest reaches of your distribution
system, or where water is oldest.
This location is denoted as MR001.
•One dual sample set must be taken
at the highest HAA5 (haloacetic
acids) sampling site, at a location
that represents the average
residence time; typically located mid
distribution system
This location is denoted as MD001.
R309-210-10(3)(ii):
•Water system must identify which locations will be used for compliance monitoring
by alternating selection of locations representing high TTHM and high HAA5 levels
until the required number of compliance monitoring locations have been identified.
