We have completed our review of the updated DWSP plans and find that the plans basically comply with the applicable portions of Utah’s Administrative Rules for Public Drinking Water Systems. The Division concurs with these updated plans. We commend you for establishing a program to protect this source from present and future contamination. These plans must be updated often enough to ensure that they reflect current conditions in your protection zones. The due date for submitting the next updated plan is December 31, 2028. Note Since septic systems are inventoried as a high-risk PCS for this source, it is recommended that specific language on septic/drain fields be added to your public education material. Your attached mailer includes a link to DDW factsheets, however, the language in your mailer does not specifically mention septic systems. Adding targeted language that informs readers on septic management would be highly advised. 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 submittal 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 Noah Zorsky at (385) 707-7317 or via email at nzorsky@utah.gov if you have questions or concerns about the review of your DWSP plan.
