Shelley Executive Director DIVISION OF DRINKING WATER Nathan Lunstad P.E Director May 9, 2024 Dawna Zukirmi South Robinson Springs Water Users 631 E 300 N Morgan, Utah 84050 Subject: Increased Monitoring Requirements – Monthly Source Bacteriological Sampling of Robinson Spring WS001; South Robinson Springs Water Users, UTAH15018 Dear Dawna Zukirmi: South Robinson Springs Water Users is required to conduct source assessment sampling at the Robinson Spring (WS001) to investigate the quality of that source. This requirement stems from the multiple Level 2 Assessments triggered for this water system in July 2023, February 2024, and March 2024. Because there have been three Level 2 Assessments within a year, it is necessary for the system to collect samples at Robinson Spring. Source assessment monitoring should be conducted as described below: 1. Take one bacteriological sample per month at the Robinson Spring WS001 prior to treatment. The purpose of this source sampling requirement is to gather data to evaluate the quality of this source. 2. This source sampling requirement shall begin May 2024 and extend at least 18 months for each month the spring is in operation and accessible, sufficient to cover two peak (or summer) operating seasons. The Division may evaluate the source sampling requirements after 18 months based on the data available at that time. 3. This source water quality evaluation has added the following monitoring requirement for your system: Facility with new requirements Analyte(s) Required # of samples Sampling Frequency Next Due Date Rule Reference Robinson Spring WS001 Total Coliform; E. coli 1 Each Monthly 5/31/2024 R309-215- 16(b) 4. All source samples shall be collected prior to any treatment and/or at a location that represents the source water quality. 5. All source samples must be labelled with the facility name and code (Robinson Spring WS001) listed above as the sampling location and facility code. Please note that this source sampling requirement is in addition to the distribution system bacteriological sampling requirement already in place. All distribution samples must be labeled with sample location/sample address and DS001 for the facility code. You can find the current monitoring schedule for your water system at waterlink.utah.gov by selecting your system and then selecting Water Monitoring under Water System Reports. Thank you for your efforts in protecting the drinking water quality in your water system and protecting public health. If you have any questions regarding these increased monitoring requirements, please contact Sitara Federico of the Division at (385)-515-1459 or sfederico@utah.gov.
