Subject: NOTICE OF VIOLATION – Failure to Fix Significant Deficiency Treatment Technique Violation, Water System #UTAH09006 Brett Chynoweth:
Our records indicate that your system is in violation of the State of Utah Public Drinking Water Rules as follows: On October 3, 2023, Henrieville Town Water System received two significant deficiencies. The
system was notified of these deficiencies on October 4, 2023. One of these deficiencies remains
uncorrected:
• TGR7 Com system serving 100 or more connections lacks redundant source DS001
Utah Public Drinking Water Rules require all significant deficiencies to be corrected within 120
days of the date of notification or the system must enter a corrective action plan (CAP) with the Division to address the significant deficiencies as specified in R309-215-16(3)(a)(v). The system chose to request a CAP which was finalized on January 25, 2024. The system failed to correct the deficiencies by the CAP’s deadline of January 20, 2025. This results in the system
being assessed a treatment technique violation in accordance with R309-215-16(4)(a) and the assessment of 50 Improvement Priority System (IPS) points to the system’s IPS Report. Be advised this could adversely affect your water system’s rating (R309-400).
As a result of this Tier 2 violation, the system must provide the public notice as soon as practical, but no later than 30 days after the system learns of the violation. If the public notice is posted, the
notice must remain in place for as long as the violation or situation persists, but in no case for less
than seven days, even if the violation or situation is resolved (see R309-220-6(1)(a) and R309-220-6(1)(b)). This public notice requirement cannot be waived once a violation occurs. Proof of public notification must be provided to the Division at (ddwreports@utah.gov) within 30 days of notifying the water system customers and resubmitted each quarter the deficiencies remain
unresolved.
