Subject: Amended Initial Order for New Public Water System Wilderness Acres No 20
Property Owners Association UTAH22159
Dear Maarten Verhoef:
On December 12, 2023, the Director of the Division of Drinking Water (“Director”) issued an
Initial Order for New Public Water System (“the Order”) to Wilderness Acres No 20 Property
Owners Association (“Supplier”). For good cause, the Director extended the original due dates for
the Order by letter dated July 2, 2024. The Supplier has made good progress towards compliance
but has asked for another extension. The Director finds that good cause exists to grant a second
extension. As authorized in paragraph 11 of the General Provisions section of the Order, the
Director hereby amends the Order as reflected in the attached Appendix A: Amended Initial Order
for New Public Water System Schedule UTAH22159 (“2025 Extension Schedule”). Except as
provided in the 2025 Extension Schedule, the Order remains in full force and effect. This
amendment is effective as of the date it is signed by the Director.
Under Utah law, the Director of the Division is required to provide notice of violations of the Utah
Safe Drinking Water Act (the “Act”), the rules, or orders and to otherwise enforce compliance
with regulatory requirements. This includes violations of the Order (as amended), which remains a
final administrative order.
If you have any further questions, please contact Jennifer Yee at 385-515-1501 (call/text) or

Sincerely,
Russell Seeley, P.E.
