Water Quality

Has your system conducted monitoring for nitrate during 2009 from each source?

Regulations require a minimum of annual sampling for nitrate. If any nitrate result is greater than or equal to 1/2 the MCL of 45 mg/L (i.e., a result of at least 23 mg/L nitrate), quarterly monitoring must be initiated. If there were any sources that were not monitored because they were offline during 2008, you must contact the CDPH Drinking Water Program to avoid an enforcement action.

When was your bacteriological site sampling plan last updated? 

The coliform monitoring regulations require that an updated sample-siting plan be submitted at least every 10 years, and at any time the plan no longer ensures representative monitoring of the system (Section 64422 of Title 22, California Code of Regulations). Please attach a copy of this siting plan if it is in electronic format (eg: PDF) and was changed in 2009.

Please note that if there is a system pressure loss to less than 5 psi, special bacteriological samples are required from the affected area. Also, you must notify the CDPH Drinking Water Program immediately.

Is your 2009 Consumer Confidence Report (CCR) on the Internet?

Date 2009 CCR was or will be posted on the Internet: 

If your 2009 CCR has not yet been distributed, indicate the date it will be distributed: 

A 2009 Consumer Confidence Report (CCR) must be distributed to your customers by July 1, 2010, reporting the quality of water delivered during the 2009 (Section 116470 of the Health and Safety Code). A copy of the 2009 CCR must be submitted to the CDPH Drinking Water Program by October 1, 2010 (Section 64483(c) of Title 22 California Code of Regulations).

Chemical Additives

Pursuant to Section 64590, Title 22 of the California Code of Regulations, all chemicals or products, including chlorine, added directly to the drinking water as part of a treatment process must meet the ANSI/NSF Standard 60. If you are not sure whether a chemical you are using meets this standard, contact the manufacturer or distributor of the chemical.

Please enter information about each chemical used by your water system including the following information (fill out sheet5 if necessary).
