Dear Cory Hatch:
The Division of Drinking Water (the Division) received the updated Drinking Water Source Protection (DWSP) plan for Cold Spring, Middle Fork Spring, Milk Creek Spring, Hourgaard Spring,
North Slope Spring, and Deer Trail Spring from you, on February 6, 2025.
We have completed our review of the updated DWSP plan and find that the plan basically complies with the applicable portions of Utah’s Administrative Rules for Public Drinking Water
Systems. The Division concurs with this updated plan. We commend you for establishing a program to protect these sources from present and future contamination. This plan must be updated
often enough to ensure that it reflects current conditions in your protection zones.
The due date for submitting the next updated plan for these springs is December 31, 2029.
The due date for submitting Surface Water Source Protection Plans for WS004 and WS008, spring designated as Ground Water Under the Direct Influence of Surface Water, is March 16, 2026.RemindersAs
stated in R309-600 and 605: Implementing DWSP Plans - Each Public Water System (PWS) shall begin implementing each of its DWSP Plans in accordance with the implementation schedule within
180 days after submittal if the plan is not disapproved. Be prepared to describe these efforts in your next update, which should include documentation of how the land management strategies
identified for existing and future potential contamination sources were implemented. Your updated plan will be disapproved, and 25 Improvement Priority System (IPS) points will be assigned
for failure to comply with this requirement.As stated in R309-600 and 605: Recordkeeping - As a DWSP Plan is executed, the PWS shall document any land management strategies that are
implemented. Please provide actual copies of memoranda of understanding, public education programs, bill stuffers, newsletters, or other correspondence documenting the implementation
of each land management strategy as it occurs, in this section of your updated plan.

updated source protection plan, by submitting an updated waiver statement. If the update is not received, your waivers may lapse, and your monitoring schedule will change.Please contact
