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:

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.
Sincerely,
