Dear Mr. Nelson:
The Division of Drinking Water (the Division) received a request for an Operating Permit for
Lower Well Reconstruction & Gas Chlorinator Project from you on June 11, 2024. The Division
issued Plan Approval for this project on September 13, 2022. Division staff conducted an onsite
final inspection of this project on May 15, 2024.
Our understanding of the project is the removal and reconstruction of River Height City’s Lower
Well (WS001) facility. The project included the demolition of the existing facilities, site
excavation, grading and preparation, and construction of the well house. A gas chlorination
addition (TP005) was built for chlorine residual maintenance only. Additional improvements
included improvements to the facility telemetry, pump-to-waste, standby generator, and general
site safety and security.
We have received the following information for Lower Well (WS001) and Lower Well Chlorinator
(TP005):
1. Satisfactory bacteriological results as evidence of proper disinfection and flushing.
2. Evidence of O&M manual delivery.
We have determined that all conditions for operating permit issuance have been met. On this basis,
an Operating Permit for Lower Well (WS001) and Lower Well Chlorinator (TP005) is
hereby issued as constituted by this letter. You may now place Lower Well (WS001) and Lower
Well Chlorinator (TP005) in service in your water system.
