Annual Drinking
Water Quality Report

We are pleased to present to you this year's Annual Drinking Water Quality Report. This report is designed to inform you about the quality of the water and services we deliver to you
every day. Our constant goal is to provide you with a safe and dependable supply of drinking water. We want you to understand the efforts we make to continually improve the water treatment
process and protect our water resources. We are committed to ensuring the quality of your water. Our water source is ground water collected from several wells in the Bothwell Pocket.
Those wells consist of the following;
WELL 1 EAST (source ID WS002)
WELL 2 WEST (source ID WS003)
Water purchased from the Bear River Water Conservancy District (BRWCD)(UTAH02066), this source will be noted as BRWCD in the contamination constituent level testing summary tables.
NEWMAN WELL (source ID WS001)
BACK UP WELL (source ID WS002)
Currently, up to about 50% of the water used in the Bothwell Town Water System comes from the BRWCD source. This source is turned on during the summer months when demand is high for
yard maintenance.

SOURCE PROTECTION PLAN
The Drinking Water Source Protection Plan for the Bothwell Town Water System is available for your review. It contains information about source protection zones, potential contamination
sources and management strategies to protect our drinking water. Potential contamination sources common in our protection areas are erosion and leaching of natural deposits in the earth,
runoff from fertilizer, leaching from septic tanks, by-product of drinking water disinfection, and corrosion of household plumbing systems. We have also developed management strategies
to further protect our sources from contamination. Please contact us if you have questions or concerns about our source protection plan.

CROSS CONNECTION CONTROL
There are many connections to our water distribution system. When connections are properly installed and maintained, the concerns are very minimal. However, unapproved and improper
piping changes or connections can adversely affect not only the availability, but also the quality, of the water. A cross connection may let polluted water or even chemicals mingle
into the water supply system when not properly protected. This not only compromises the water quality but can also affect your health. So, what can you do? Do not make or allow improper
connections at your homes. Even that unprotected garden hose lying in the puddle next to the driveway is a cross connection. The unprotected lawn sprinkler system after you have fertilized
or sprayed is also a cross connection. For example, if the valve on the hose or the sprinkler system were to be left open and the main line were to drain out due to a break then a vacuum
would form syphoning whatever is at the end of the hose or system to be sucked into the main line. When the cross connection is allowed to exist at your home it will affect you and
your family first. If you’d like to learn more about helping to protect the quality of our water, call us for further information about ways you can help.

We are pleased to report that our drinking water meets federal and state requirements.
QUESTIONS
This report shows our water quality and what it means to you our customer. If you have any questions about this report or concerning your water utility, please contact Jay R Christensen,
11820 North 10000 West, Tremonton, Utah, [phone].

PLEASE ATTEND
We want our valued customers to be informed about their water utility. If you want to learn more, please attend any of our regularly scheduled meetings. They are held on a monthly basis,
on the fourth Wednesday of each month at 7PM. As we have no city offices the meetings are scheduled at the different board member homes. Please contact Jay R. Christensen (contact
information given in the preceding section) for the location of the monthly meeting for the month you wish to attend.

The Bothwell Town Water System routinely monitors for constituents in our drinking water in accordance with the Federal and Utah State laws. The current testing laboratory used is Chemtech-Ford
Laboratories in Sandy, Utah. The following table shows the results of our monitoring for the period of January 1st to December 31st, 2020 or the most recent sample data. All drinking
water, including bottled drinking water, may be reasonably expected to contain at least small amounts of some constituents. It's important to remember that the presence of these constituents
does not necessarily pose a health risk.

CONSTITUENT TABLE DEFINITIONS
In the following tables are listed contaminants that were detected by our regular testing.
In the following table you will find many terms and abbreviations you might not be familiar with. To help you better understand these terms we've provided the following definitions
Non-Detects (ND) - Laboratory analysis indicates that the constituent is not present.
ND/Low - High - For water systems that have multiple sources of water, the Utah Division of Drinking Water has given water systems the option of listing the test results of the constituents
in one table, instead of multiple tables. To accomplish this, the lowest and highest values detected in the multiple sources are recorded in the same space in the report table.
Parts per million (ppm) or Milligrams per liter (mg/l) - One part per million corresponds to one minute in two years or a single penny in $10,000.

Parts per billion (ppb) or Micrograms per liter (ug/l) - One part per billion corresponds to one minute in 2,000 years, or a single penny in $10,000,000.
Parts per trillion (ppt) or Nanograms per liter (nanograms/l) - One part per trillion corresponds to one minute in 2,000,000 years, or a single penny in $10,000,000,000.
Parts per quadrillion (ppq) or Picograms per liter (picograms/l) - One part per quadrillion corresponds to one minute in 2,000,000,000 years or one penny in $10,000,000,000,000.
Picocuries per liter (pCi/L) - Picocuries per liter is a measure of the radioactivity in water.
Millirems per year (mrem/yr) - Measure of radiation absorbed by the body.
Million Fibers per Liter (MFL) - Million fibers per liter is a measure of the presence of asbestos fibers that are longer than 10 micrometers.
Nephelometric Turbidity Unit (NTU) - Nephelometric turbidity unit is a measure of the clarity of water. Turbidity in excess of 5 NTU is just noticeable to the average person.
Action Level (AL) - The concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers treatment or other
Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) - The “Maximum Allowed” (MCL) is the highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible
using the best available treatment technology.
Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG) - The “Goal”(MCLG) is the level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow for a
margin of safety.
Date- Because of required sampling time frames i.e. yearly, 3 years, 4 years and 6 years, sampling dates may seem out-dated.
Waivers (W)- Because some chemicals are not used or stored in areas around drinking water sources, some water systems have been given waivers that exempt them from having to take certain
chemical samples, these waivers are also tied to Drinking Water Source Protection Plans.

IDENTIFIED PHYSICAL DEFICIENCIES

The State of Utah performed a Sanitary Survey of the Bothwell Water system in July of 2018. Significant deficiencies resulting from that survey, and planned corrective actions are listed
in the following table.

SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCIES IDENTIFIED IN PREVIOUS REPORTS
Identified Deficiency Date of Survey Action Plan Chlorine tablets are used to insure safe water. A continuous process is required. 07/26/2018 Chlorination systems have been added at
both wells. An operating permit was issued by the state in a letter received mid-November 2020 (State File #12021) System must have a certified operator within 1 year of the survey. 07/26/2018 Mr.
Paul C. Fulgham (Certification #88129) has been identified and recorded by the State of Utah as being our Certified Operator (May 2020)
