1. Public Water System Contacts

Click here to learn how to Modify, Add and Delete Contacts in the table below.

IMPORTANT: Each water system must have one and only one Administrative Contact AND one and only one Financial Contact. The same person may be both the Administrative and Financial Contacts.

Please provide an email address for the Administrative Contact as most email communication, particularly email blasts, from the Division of Drinking Water will be sent to the email address of the Administrative Contact.


PHONE TYPE: Home – if you use your home or personal phone number as your business number, use the HOME phone type instead and leave the BUSINESS phone type blank.
Only the BUSINESS phone type will appear in Drinking Water Watch (https://sdwis.waterboards.ca.gov/PDWW/), which can be viewed by the public, if the General Office phone number is not provided (see Water System Information section under the Intro tab).

Non-potable = water supplies that do not enter the drinking water distribution system and are for non-potable uses only such as irrigation or toilet flushing

1Only report Maximum Day if it is actually measured or determined from production records. It should not be the average day demand during
the maximum month of production.

2Do not include raw water purchased; report only volume of water that was treated.

7. WATER QUALITY

ANNUAL NITRATE SAMPLING

Regulations require a minimum of annual sampling for nitrate. If any nitrate result is >= 1/2 the MCL of 45 mg/L (i.e., a result of >= 23 mg/L
nitrate) then quarterly monitoring must be initiated.

Did your system conduct monitoring for nitrate during 2015 from each source?

NOTE: If there were any sources that were not monitored because they were offline during 2015, you must
contact your local regulatory agency to avoid an enforcement action for failure to monitor.

BACTERIOLOGICAL SAMPLE SITING PLAN

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).

Date of current bacteriological sample siting plan:

8. WATER TREATMENT

Treatment PlantRequired Treatment Plant Operator Classification
1 - 4 of 4

If treatment was added or changed in any way in 2015, provide a brief description and identify the water source

TD = Treatment or Distribution operator at any level

NR, N/A, NA = There are no facilities subject to the Certified Treatment Plant Operator requirements

DIRECT ADDITIVES

Are all chemicals used NSF/ANSI Standard 60 certified?

INDIRECT ADDITIVES

As of March 9, 2008, a water system shall not use any chemical, material, lubricant, or product in the production, treatment or distribution of
drinking water that comes in contact with the drinking water that does not have certification of meeting NSF/ANSI standard 61.

Does your water system have procedures to ensure all future equipment and materials meet this standard?

If you have any questions on the requirements related to indirect additives, you may contact your local regulatory agency.

Do you project water shortages in the current calendar year?
Did you implement NEW water conservation measures in 2015?
If you implemented NEW water conservation measures in 2015, please estimate how much water was conserved in millions of gallons:
      (MG)
      % reduction in demand
Do you anticipate having to go to mandatory rationing in the upcoming year?
Do you routinely monitor the static water levels in your wells?
Do you routinely monitor the pumping water levels in your wells?
Are these levels recovering, declining or steady?:
