RE: Summit County Service Area No. 3 (System #22105)
Quarterly Arsenic Report for the 1st Quarter 2024, Greenfield Well (WS002)

Dear Mr. Kruse,

Summit County Service Area #3 (Service Area) provides drinking water to customers in the area
of Silver Creek Estates. The Service Area owns and operates two wells. The first of the Service
Area’s wells is the District Well (WS001). The District Well was drilled and equipped in 1963 and
produces about 180 gpm. Water from the District Well has an arsenic level of about 4 ppb. In
2003, the Service Area drilled the Greenfield Well (WS002), which produces up to about 200 gpm.
Water from the Greenfield Well has an arsenic level of about 23 ppb.

An operating permit for the Greenfield Well was approved by the Utah Division of Drinking Water
(DDW) on February 23, 2012, and revised via correspondence dated October 23, 2012. Because
the arsenic level in water from the Greenfield Well is above 10 ppb, the operating permit outlined
specific arsenic testing and reporting requirements associated with using the well. Additionally,
quarterly arsenic sampling is required at the Greenfield Well and at Silver Creek Estates Lot 278
(SS278). The sampling is typically performed monthly, and the results are averaged for each
quarter. A running annual average is computed using the averaged results. The running annual
average is to be maintained below the arsenic MCL of 10.0 ppb.

The Greenfield Well’s Operating Permit specifies that monitoring results are to be reported at the
conclusion of each quarter. This letter contains the report for the 1st quarter of 2024.

ARSENIC SAMPLING RESULTS
Water samples were collected by Service Area personnel and submitted to Chemtech-Ford
Laboratories for analytical testing. The analytical results of the last four quarters are presented
in Table 1, Table 2, and Table 3 for SS278, WS001 and WS002, respectively.

WATER USE DATA

The arsenic compliance plan described in the operating permit letter requires reporting of
Greenfield Well and District Well water use data. The reported water use is based on data
provided by the Service Area No. 3 SCADA system. Water use data for the Service Area’s two
water sources are summarized in Table 4. Following Table 4, Table 5 presents weekly production
data for the 1st quarter.

drinking water standards for arsenic. The annual running average at SS278 (7765 N. Silver Creek
Road) is 6.8 ppb.
