COX Governor DEIDRE HENDERSON Lieutenant Governor Department of Environmental Quality Tim Davis Executive Director DIVISION OF DRINKING WATER Nathan Lunstad, Ph.D., P.E. Director June 3, 2025 CERTIFIED MAIL Lorne Berry Legacy Mountain 3301 N Thanksgiving Way, Floor 5 Lehi, UT 84043 Subject: NOTICE OF DEFICIENCY– D003: Distribution System Unable to Provide 20 PSI Minimum Pressure, Water System #UTAH20070 Lorne Berry: It is our understanding that portions of the Legacy Mountain Water System (the System) have water pressure below 20 psi and several cabin connections that have no water or pressure available to them. We also understand that, historically, the System has been able to provide adequate pressure to all connections in the past with the same infrastructure (wells, tanks, etc.) that is currently in service. On February 21, 2025, I met with you and your representatives, along with Utah Division of Drinking Water (Division) employees Ryan Dearing and Pete Keers. Mark Bagley, a cabin owner served by the System, was also present at that meeting. The purpose of that meeting was to discuss the lack of water service to portions of the existing water system located in the higher elevations of the system. You explained that your previous investigations into the problem led you to believe that the water lines in the higher elevation areas have multiple leaks that is preventing the water system in that area to stay pressurized. Your proposed solution to the problem was to start searching for those pipeline leaks and repairing them as soon as the snow cleared from those areas. On May 8, 2025, I sent you an email inquiring about your plans to start looking for the pipeline leaks, as you mentioned you would do during the meeting on February 21st. No response to that email inquiry was received. On May 14, 2025, I received an email from Mark Bagley indicating that work had not begun on repairing, or attempting to locate, the leaks in the water system piping. On May 28, 2025, I met with four cabin owners that have a water connection to the System, but have no water available or the water is only intermittently available. It was confirmed on site that day, that those cabins had zero pressure and no water available. Lorne Berry Page 2 of 2 Based on these findings, a 50-significant point deficiency will be added to the Improvement Priority System (IPS) report for D003: Distribution System Unable to Provide 20 PSI Minimum Pressure For Water Lines. The system has 120 days to correct this deficiency and come into compliance. If the system cannot meet that deadline, the system must request a corrective action plan (CAP) with the Division to address the significant deficiencies at requestcap.utah.gov prior to the deadline. Once the deficiency has been corrected, you must notify the Division and submit documentation of that correction within 30 days of completion. Failure to do so will result in a treatment technique violation as stated in R309-215-16(4)(a). An updated IPS report is available at https:\\waterlink.utah.gov. Please contact Jennifer Yee at jyee@utah.gov or (385) 515-1501 for questions related to the System’s IPS report or deficiencies. If you have any questions regarding this letter, please contact me at jchartier@utah.gov or (435) 559-1969. Sincerely, John L. Chartier, P.E.
