Deficiencies (SP04 ACTIVE SOURCE LACKS APPROVED UPDATES TO DWSP) were previously added to the Division’s database and ten (10) Improvement Priority System (IPS) points assigned (5 points per source). The District Well and Greenfield Well currently have monitoring reduction susceptibility waivers for pesticides and volatile organic contaminants (VOCs), which means that pesticide monitoring is only required once every three (3) years and VOC monitoring is only required once every six (6) years. According to R309-600-13(2), if a source's DWSP plan is due and is not submitted to the Division, its use and susceptibility waivers for the VOC and pesticide parameter groups will expire. Use and susceptibility waivers must be renewed every six years with your updated source protection plan. Because the Division has not received updated DWSP plans or signed waiver statements, these sources are no longer eligible for susceptibility waivers for pesticides or VOCs. Please submit updated DWSP plans and a signed waiver statement (attached) within 90 days, or your waivers will lapse, and your monitoring schedule will change. Guidance for preparing the updated DWSP plan can be found online at https://deq.utah.gov/drinking-water/preparing-source-protection-plans.RemindersAs stated in R309-600 and 605: Implementing DWSP Plans - Each Public Water System (PWS) shall begin implementing each of its DWSP Plans in accordance with the implementation schedule within 180 days after submission if the plan is not disapproved. Be prepared to describe these efforts in your next update, which should include documentation of how the land management strategies identified for existing and future potential contamination sources were implemented. Your updated plan will be disapproved, and 25 Improvement Priority System (IPS) points will be assigned for failure to comply with this requirement.As stated in R309-600 and 605: Recordkeeping - As a DWSP Plan is executed, the PWS shall document any land management strategies that are implemented. Please provide actual copies of memoranda of understanding, public education programs, bill stuffers, newsletters, or other correspondence documenting the implementation of each land management strategy as it occurs, in this section of your updated plan.Please contact Deidre Beck at (385) 271-7046 or via email at dbeck@utah.gov if you have questions about the source protection requirements. Contact David Kruse at (385) 566-7789 or via email at dbkruse@utah.gov if you have any questions about your current monitoring schedule.To help us serve you more efficiently, please use the water system number (22105) in your correspondence.
