Subject:Operating Permit, Well #12 Golf Course (WS014)
Moab City, System #10003, Files #12840, #12278
Dear Levi Jones:The Division of Drinking Water (the Division) received your request for the Operating Permit for Well #12 Golf Course from your consultant, Brandon R. Nielsen, P.E. with
J.U.B. Engineers on October 30, 2024. The Division issued Plan Approval for drilling this well on December 15, 2020, and Plan Approval for equipping this well on January 27, 2023. Division
staff conducted an onsite final inspection of this project on June 10, 2024.
Our understanding of the project is the completed equipping of Well #12 Golf Course with a 50 horsepower vertical turbine submersible multistage pump; the construction of a new climate
controlled CMU well house with an electrical service that includes a backup generator and an automatic transfer switch; and the installation of associated valving, meter and connection
to the existing system. Well #12 Golf Course is identified as WS014 in the Division’s database.
We have received the following information for Well #12 Golf Course:
Design engineer’s statement of conformance with approval conditions.
Documentation of valid water right.
Evidence of O&M manual delivery.
As-built or record drawings.
Satisfactory bacteriological results as evidence of proper disinfection and flushing.
We have determined that all conditions of operating permit issuance have been met. On this basis, an Operating Permit for Well #12 Golf Course is hereby issued as constituted by this
letter. You may now place Well #12 Golf Course (WS014) in service in your water system.
Please maintain a copy of this letter with your permanent records for future reference.
The equipped well pump capacity of Well #12 Golf Course is 600 gallons per minute (gpm). The safe yield of Well #12 Golf Course is rated at 383 gpm, which is calculated based on two-thirds
of the constant-rate aquifer drawdown test results of 575 gpm. The safe yield of 383 gpm is the basis for determining the maximum number of connections that Well #12 Golf Course can
serve.
Drinking Water Source Protection Requirement
As indicated in the Plan Approval to Drill letter dated December 17, 2020, a Drinking Water Source Protection (DWSP) plan was due within one year of the completion of the source. The
full DWSP plan has not been received and based on the Well Driller’s Report, this source was completed in 2021. A dormant deficiency (SP07 - ACTIVE SOURCE LACKS AN APPROVED DWSP PLAN)
has been added to the Division’s database to serve as a tracking tool and reminder. Failure to correct this deficiency by the required due date (90 days from the date of this letter)
will result in 25 Improvement Priority System (IPS) points being assigned as well as a treatment technique violation as stated in R309-215-16(4)(a). If you have questions about these
points please contact Jennifer Yee at [phone] or [e-mail]. If you cannot address the deficiency within 90 days, please request a Corrective Action Plan (CAP) at requestcap.utah.gov.
If you have questions about requesting a CAP, please contact Brandi Smith at [e-mail]. If you have questions about the source protection requirements, contact Deidre Beck
at [phone] or via email at [e-mail].
