Written review comments were provided to you and your consultant on March 6, 2024. The Division received a response to the comments on March 6, 2024. This project has met the conditions for receiving a plan approval. The letter includes the following sections and addenda:   1.Project Summary for Camp Kolob Deer Haven Chlorinator (TP001)     2. Plan Approval for Camp Kolob Deer Haven Chlorinator (TP001) 3.Operating Permit Checklist  4.FutureMonitoring and Reporting Requirements (Addendum 1)Project Summary Our understanding of the project is to install a chlorinator that will meet the secondary disinfection requirements outlined in a letter dated February 7, 2023 sent to the Camp Kolob - Deer Haven Ranch water system. The project will include a new building to house the chlorinator. The plan review of the proposed Camp Kolob Deer Haven Chlorinator (TP001) has been completed according to the following: The proposed Camp Kolob Deer Haven Chlorinator is adding sodium hypochlorite solution of 5.25% concentration; the pump is a Blue-White Flexflow M14-4T peristaltic type.   This chlorinator will add chlorine to the water from Upper Spring (WS001). This chlorinator is intended to provide secondary disinfection in the distribution system.  The chlorinated water will go to the dual 20,000-gallon tanks (Deer Haven Tank #1 (East) - ST001 and Deer Haven Tank #2 (West) - ST002) then to the distribution system. The proposed sodium hypochlorite for disinfection meets the ANSI/NSF 60 standard. The proposed design target dose of 1.0 mg/L or ppm (measured as free chlorine) is based on a typical flow of 2 to 10 gallons per minute (gpm) from Upper Spring (WS001). The chlorine dose will be adjusted by an automatic flow-paced control based on a flow meter for Upper Spring (WS001). The Point of Entry (POE) sampling location will be a HACH CL17sc continuous analyzer located at the Central Restroom building. Plan Approval for Camp Kolob - Deer Haven Chlorinator (TP001) We have completed our review of the plans and specifications, stamped, and signed byChristen A. DeMille, P.E., dated February 5, 2024, and found 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 Camp Kolob - Deer Haven Chlorination Project are hereby approved. This approval pertains to construction only. An Operating Permit must be obtained from the Director before the Camp Kolob Deer Haven Chlorinator (TP001) may be put in service. A checklist outlining the items required for operating permit issuance is enclosed for your information.Approvals or permits from the local authority or the county may be necessary before beginning construction of this project. As the project proceeds, a 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. Secondary Disinfection Requirements The Division has determined that theCamp Kolob - Deer Haven Ranchmust provide continuous disinfection to maintain detectable chlorine residuals throughout the distribution system. The proposed Camp Kolob Deer Haven Chlorinator (TP001)is intended to provide a detectable disinfectant residual in the distribution system for secondary disinfection. The plan review of the proposed Camp Kolob Deer Haven Chlorinator (TP001) is based on providing secondary disinfection. When this chlorinator is installed and placed in operation after the Operating Permit issuance, the Camp Kolob - Deer Haven Ranch will be required to demonstrate ongoing compliance with the secondary disinfection requirements that will be outlined in Addendum 1 to this letter. The Division shall be informed by telephone within 8 hours by a water supplier ofthe malfunction of any disinfection facility such that a detectable residual cannot be maintained at all points in the distribution system per R309-105-18(1)(a). Please be aware if Upper Spring (WS001) is found to requireadditionaldisinfection in the future per R309-200-5(7)(a)(i), further regulations will apply. For example, if primary disinfection is required this will include submitting disinfection CT information showing compliance with 4-log virus inactivation in accordance with the Ground Water Rule in R309-215-16. If you have any questions regarding this approval please contact J. Paul Wright, DEQ Southwest District Engineer, at (435) 986-2590, or Michael Newberry, Engineering Manager, at (385) 515‑1464.

As a part of these requirements, the water system will need to continuously maintain a minimum free chlorine residual at each chlorinator Point of Entry (POE) into the system and demonstrate a detectable chlorine residual in the distribution system.  Secondary Disinfection Requirements and Reporting  Chlorine Residual ‒ Point of Entry (POE) to Distribution System The POE sampling location will be identified in the Division’s database. The location will be identified during the plan approval process. Maintain a minimum of 0.2 mg/L residual (measured as free chlorine) at the POE sampling location. [R309-215-16(3)(b)(iii)(A)(I) and (II)] The chlorine residual concentration measured at the POE sampling location shall not exceed the maximum residual disinfectant level (MRDL) of 4.0 mg/L (measured as free chlorine). [R309-200-5(3)(c)(iv)] Record and report the lowest daily chlorine residual concentration, measured as free chlorine, at the chlorinator POE sampling location a minimum of daily. [R309-210- 8(3)(a)(ii)] Our records show that your water system serves 170 people. Please be aware that R309-215-16(3)(b)(iii)(A)(II) requires water systems serving 3,300 people or fewer to monitor the POE chlorine residuals and take daily grab sample(s). Alternatively, instead of taking daily grab samples, a groundwater system serving 3,300 or fewer people may choose to use an online analyzer to continuously monitor the POE chlorine residuals entering the distribution system. Chlorine Residual ‒ Distribution System (DS001) This water system must maintain a detectable residualthroughout the distribution system. It is recommended to maintain the chlorine residual above 0.1 ppm in the distribution system. [R309-520-5] The chlorine residual measured in the distribution system shall not exceed the maximum residual disinfectant level (MRDL) of 4.0 mg/L (measured as free chlorine). [R309-200-5(3)(c)(iv)] This water system must take a minimum of three (3) chlorine residual samples per weekat varying locations throughout its distribution system (DS001). [R309-105-10(1)(c)] Distribution system chlorine residuals must be taken in conjunction with total coliform sampling. [R309-215-10(3)] Disinfection Report Submission To demonstrate ongoing compliance with secondary disinfection requirements, the water system must complete monthly operational reports for each active chlorinator using a template approved by the Division.  Operational reports are submitted quarterly. The reports are due to the Division by the 10th day following the end of each reporting month or quarter (i.e., January 10th, April 10th, July 10th, and October 10th for quarterly reports). The reports can be submitted by hardcopy, fax, or email at DDWReports@utah.gov. Please contact Luke Treutel at (385) 258-6084 or ltreutel@utah.gov to schedule training regarding proper reporting.  In addition to monthly disinfection reporting, this water system must submit the monthly average of chlorine residual samples taken in the distribution system. Distribution system chlorine residual monitoring results are due quarterly by the same compliance dates as the monthly disinfection report and can be submitted via an online form found at mrdl.utah.gov.  Records must be maintained for a minimum of 5 years.
