Dear James Wells:
Subject: Public Drinking Water Requirements for Dead Horse Point, UTAH10013
According to the Division of Drinking Water ’s records, Dead Horse Point is a Transient
Non-Community water system that now serves a population of about 2,822 people.
This population change results in the following changes to your systems sampling requirements
as follows:
Bacteriological Sampling
The total number of bacteriological samples this system is now required to take is 3 samples each
month. It is still your responsibility to send a copy of all results to our office by the 10th of the
following month. In the event of a coliform positive result, you are required to take three repeat
samples and a triggered source E.coli sample for each ground water source in service at the time
of the original positive sample. The system is required to submit an updated written sample site
plan that identifies sampling sites and sample collection schedules that are representative of
water throughout the distribution system. For any questions regarding the Total Coliform rule or
Groundwater rule, contact Sitara Federico at [phone] or [e-mail]. This new
sample schedule will take effect on July 1st, 20124

Bacteriological Sample Site Plan
All public water systems are required under the Revised Total Coliform Rule (RTCR) to submit a Bacteriological
Sample Site Plan. The purpose of the wrien sample site plan is to ensure the collecon of samples from points in
the distribuon system that best represent the quality of water served to customers, to idenfy repeat sampling
locaons, and to establish a sampling schedule.
What to include in the plan:
1. The following should be submied for the Bacteriological Sample Site Plan:
a. The plan must include a MAP of the distribuon system. Excepons are small systems such as
restaurants, schools, office buildings, and some small industries.
b. Bacteriological Sample Site Plan form.
2. The map should show locaons of all distribuon lines, sources, treatment, storage tanks and sampling
sites. Idenfy each sampling site by street address and a numeric point code. Give a brief descripon of
the site. For example: 201 Main Street, 1. DS001, outside house tap, or Maintenance Facility, 1. DS001,
men’s restroom sink. The sampling site Numeric Point Code should begin with the number 1 and then
connue in sequenal numeric order. Use the numeric point code, along with DS001, when subming
samples to the laboratory.
3. Locate sample sites so they represent all areas of the distribuon system. You may wish to include
comments on your plan showing the reason(s) for selecng each site. Such as populaon density,
industrial areas, pressures zones, areas vulnerable to potenal contaminaon, dead-end lines, and
purchased source entry points. Alternate sampling locaons through different locaons of the water
system.
4. Do NOT indicate the raw water tap or sources as sampling sites for roune or repeat coliform samples.
These are “triggered source” sampling locaons under the Groundwater Rule (GWR). Indicate the
associated source (by DDW assigned source codes) for each sample locaon. For example: “WS001”,
“WS002 and WS004”, or “All Sources” supply this specific locaon.
5. Include the locaon for “Repeat ” sample sites. Repeat samples must be collected at the following
locaons within 24 hours of a total coliform or E coli posive sample:
- The tap where the original posive coliform sample was collected,
- A tap within five (5) service connecons upstream, and
- A tap within five (5) service connecons downstream.
6. Alternave fixed repeat locaons may be idenfied at locaons that best verify and determine the extent
of potenal contaminaon in the distribuon system based on a specific situaon.
7. For system with only one or two service connecons (suitable sampling taps), collect all three repeat
samples in one day from the limited number of sampling taps. The sample site plan should show which
taps(s) are in use for mulple samples.
8. The number of roune coliform samples collected each month is based on the populaon of the water
system. For a table indicang the number of samples required see Secon R309-210-5.
9. Include a schedule for selecon of the samples. Systems using only groundwater and serving less than
4,900 people (five samples required per month or fewer) may collect all required sample on a single day.
Systems with greater than five samples per month must collect a poron of the samples at regular
intervals throughout the month with the total number being the number required.
