for the subject project from your consultant, Jones and Demille Engineering on July 19, 2024. The Division understands that the project consists of replacing approximately 2,600 feet
of deteriorated 18-inch diameter ductile iron pipe (DIP) with 20-inch diameter DR-21 HDPE from SR-121 to the Page Bench area.
The Division has completed its review of the plans and specifications, stamped, and signed byErik W. Rube, P.E., dated July 19, 2024, and find they basically comply with the applicable
portions of Utah’s Administrative Rules for Public Drinking Water Systems in R309. On this basis, the plans for the Page Bench Water Line Replacement are hereby approved.
This approval pertains to construction only. An Operating Permit must be obtained from the Director before the water line may be put in service, unless the conditions outlined in the
attached checklist, which lists the items required for operating permit issuance, are met. State Revolving Fund InformationThe project, as described herein, is generally eligible for
assistance under the federal Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (DWSRF) Financial Assistance Program. All change orders must be reviewed and approved for compliance with the Drinking
Water Rules, the conditions of this construction approval, and the DWSRF Program’s financial assistance requirements.
The project may now be advertised for bids. But, as a condition of the project funding, you must not award the contract or proceed with construction until the Division of Drinking Water
has authorized you to do so. This is necessary to comply with applicable requirements and to protect you, as the funding recipient, by ensuring that the contract meets requirements for
funded projects.
Federal regulations require that a concerted effort must be made to encourage participation of small and disadvantaged business enterprises (DBE) by providing requisite information,
including plans and specifications on the project. In order to provide opportunities to DBE subcontractors, utilization goals for Minority-owned Business Enterprises (MBE) and Women-owned
Business Enterprises (WBE) have been determined to be 4% and 2%, respectively. As outlined in the contract documents, the prime contractor must submit a list of prepared MBE/WBE subcontractors
to be used on this project and documentation of solicitation efforts with the bid. The prime contractor's efforts to provide opportunity to DBE's must be reviewed and approved by this
office before the contract can be awarded.
This project is also required to comply with provisions outlined in the Davis-Bacon Wage Act, American Iron and Steel requirements, and the Build America, Buy America Act. Please contact
Allyson Spevak at [phone] or [e-mail] for assistance with these requirements.
Approvals or permits from the local authority or the county may be necessary before beginning construction of this project. As the project proceeds, notice of any changes in the approved
design, as well as any change affecting the quantity or quality of the delivered water, must be submitted to the Division. We may also conduct interim and final inspections of this project.
Please notify us when actual construction begins so that these inspections can be scheduled. This approval must be renewed if construction has not begun or if substantial equipment has
not been ordered within one year of the date of this letter. If you have any questions regarding this approval, please contact Nathan Hall, P.E., TriCounty DEQ District Engineer at (435)
