drilled well,
municipal
water supply,
or any other
source,
that
has been
inspected
and the water
sampled,
analyzed,
and found
to be a safe and
sanitary quality
according
to
applicable
laws
and regulations
of
State and local
government
agencies having
jurisdiction,
as evidenced
by
the presence
in the

of
current certificates
or notations
of
approval from
each government
agency
or
agencies
having jurisdiction
over
the
source, the water
it
bottles,
and the
distribution
of the water
in
commerce.

BOARD NOTE:
At the
table to 40 CFR
141.402(c)
(2),
USEPA
approved the
method
as
described
in the above
literature review.
The method itself
is embodied in
the
printed
instructions to the
proprietary kit
available from IDEXX
Laboratories,
Inc.
(accessible
on-line and
available
by download
from www.asm.org,
as
“Enterolert(tm)
Procedure”)
. ASTM
approved
the
method
as “Standard
Test Method
for
Enterococci in
Water Using Enterolert(tm),”
which
is available in
two
versions
from ASTM:
ASTM
D 6503-99 (superceded)
and
ASTM
D 6503-99
(2005)
While
it is
more conventional
to incorporate
the method as presented
in the kit
instructions
or as approved by
ASTM by reference,
the Board is
constrained
to
incorporate
the version
that appears
in the technical
literature by
reference,
which
is the
version
that USEPA has
explicitly approved.

SUBPART G:
LEAD AND COPPER
Section
611.350
General Requirements
a)
Applicability and
Scope
1)
Applicability.
The requirements
of this
Subpart G constitute
national
primary drinking

for lead and copper.
This Subpart
G
applies
to all
community water
systems
(CWS5)
and non-transient,
non-community
water
systems
(NTNCWS5)
2)
Scope.
This Subpart G
establishes
a
treatment
technique
that includes
requirements
for corrosion
control
treatment, source
water treatment,
lead
service
line
replacement,
and public
education. These
requirements are
triggered,
in
some
cases,
by lead and copper
action levels
measured in samples
collected
at
consumers’
taps.
b)
Definitions. For
the purposes
of only this
Subpart
G, the following
terms
have
the following
meanings:
“Action level”
means that
concentration
of lead
or copper in
water
computed
pursuant
to subsection
(c)
of this
Section
that
determines, in
some
cases, the
treatment
requirements of this
Subpart
G
that
a supplier must
complete.
The action level
for lead is 0.015
mg/l. The action
level for
copper
is 1.3
mg/l.
“Corrosion inhibitor”
means a
substance
capable
of reducing the
corrosivity
of water
toward metal plumbing
materials, especially
lead and
copper,
by
forming
a protective
film on the
interior surface
of those materials.
“Effective
corrosion
inhibitor
residual” means
a
concentration
of
inhibitor
in
the drinking
water
sufficient
to form
a
passivating
film
on the
interior
walls
of
a
pipe.
“Exceed,”
as
this term is
applied to either
the
lead or
the
copper action
level, means
that the
90th percentile
level of the
supplier’s
samples
collected
during
a
six-month monitoring
period is
greater than
the action
level
for that
contaminant.
“First
draw
sample” means a one-liter
sample
of
tap water, collected
in
accordance
with Section
611.356(b)
(2),
that
has been
standing
in plumbing
pipes
for
at
least
six hours and
which is collected
without flushing
the tap.
“Large
system’
means
a
water
system that
regularly serves
water
to more
than 50,000
persons.
“Lead
service line” means
a
service
line made of lead
that connects
the
water
main
to
the building inlet,
including
any lead pigtail,
gooseneck, or
other fitting
that
is connected
to such lead
line.
“Maximum
permissible
concentration”
or
TTMPCT
means
that concentration
of
lead
or copper
for finished
water
entering
the supplier’s
distribution
system,
designated
by
the Agency
by a
SEP
pursuant
to Sections 611.110
and 611.353(b)
that reflects
the
contaminant removal
capability
of
the treatment
properly
operated and
maintained.

(B).)
“Medium-sized
system”
means
a water
system that
regularly
serves
water
to
more than 3,300
up to 50,000 or
fewer persons.
“Meet,”
as this term is
applied

either the lead
or the copper
action
level, means
that
the 90th percentile
level
of the supplier’s

c)
Lead and Copper
Action
Levels.
1)
The
lead action
level is exceeded
if
the 90th percentile
lead
level
is
greater
than
0.015
mg/l.
2)
The
copper action level
is exceeded if
the
90th
percentile
copper level
is
greater than
1.3 mg/l.
3)
Suppliers
must
compute the 90th
percentile lead
and copper
levels as
follows:
A)
List
the results of all
lead or copper samples
taken
during a
six-month
monitoring period
in ascending order,
ranging from
the
sample
with
the lowest
concentration
first
to
the sample with
the highest concentration
last.
Assign
each
sampling result
a
number, ascending
by
single integers
beginning
with
the
number 1
for the sample with
the lowest contaminant
level.
The
number assigned
to
the sample
with the highest
contaminant level
must
be
equal to the
total
number of samples
taken.
B)
Determine the number
for
the 90th
percentile sample
by
multiplying the
total number
of samples taken
during
the six-month
monitoring
period by
0.9.
C)
The contaminant
concentration
in
the sample
with the number yielded
by the
calculation
in subsection
Cc)
(3) (B)
of
this Section is
the 90th percentile
contaminant
level.
D)
For suppliers
that
collect five
samples per
six-month monitoring
period,
the 90th
percentile
is
computed by taking
the average
of the highest
and
second
highest
concentrations.
E)
For
a
supplier
that
has been
allowed by the
Agency
to
collect
fewer than
five
samples in accordance
with Section
611.356(c),
the
sample
result
with the
highest
concentration
is considered the
90th percentile
value.
d)
Corrosion
Control Treatment
Requirements.
1)
All suppliers
must install and
operate optimal
corrosion control
treatment.
2)
Any supplier
that
complies with
the
applicable
corrosion control
treatment
requirements specified
by
the Agency pursuant
to
Sections 611.351 and
611.352
is
deemed
in compliance
with the
treatment requirement
of
subsection
(d)
(1)
of this
Section.
e)
Source water treatment
requirements.
Any supplier
whose system
exceeds
the lead
or copper action
level
must implement
all applicable
source
water
treatment requirements
specified by
the Agency
pursuant to Section
611.353.
f)
Lead service
line replacement
requirements.
Any
supplier whose
system
exceeds
the lead
action level
after implementation
of
applicable
corrosion
control and source
water treatment
requirements must
complete
the
lead
service
line replacement requirements
contained
in Section 611.354.

to Section 611.355,
the supplier
must provide
a
consumer notice
of the lead
tap
water monitoring
results to the
persons served
at
each site (tap)
that is tested.
Any
supplier
whose
system
exceeds the
lead
action
level must
implement the

Description
of Source
Water Treatment
Requirements.
1)
System
treatment recommendation.
Any
supplier that
exceeds the
lead
action level or
the copper action
level must recommend
in writing
to
the Agency
the
installation and
operation
of
one
of the source water
treatments listed
in
subsection
(b) (2)
of this
Section. A supplier
may recommend
that
no
treatment
be installed
based on a
demonstration
that
source water treatment
is
not
necessary to
minimize lead
and copper
levels
at
users’ taps.
2)
Agency determination
regarding
source water treatment.
A)
The
Agency must
complete an
evaluation
of the results
of all source water
samples submitted
by the
supplier
to
determine
whether source water
treatment is
necessary to minimize
lead
or copper levels
in water
delivered
to
users’
taps.
B)
If the Agency
determines
that treatment
is needed,
the Agency must,
by a
SEP issued
pursuant
to
Section 611.110,
either
require installation
and
operation of
the source
water treatment
recommended
by the supplier
(if
any) or
require the installation
and
operation
of another
source water treatment
from
among
the
following:
i)
ion exchange;
ii)
reverse osmosis;
iii)
lime softening;
or
iv)
coagulation/filtration.
C)
The Agency may request
and
the supplier
must
submit such additional
information,
on or before
a
certain
date,
as the
Agency
determines is
necessary
to aid in its
review.
D)
The Agency must
notify the supplier
in writing
of its determination
and
set
forth the basis for
its decision.
3)
Installation
of source
water
treatment.

supplier
must properly
install and operate
the source
water
treatment approved
by the
Agency
under
subsection
(b) (2)
of this Section.
4)
Agency
review of source
water
treatment
and
specification
of maximum
permissible
source water
levels (MPCs)
A)
The Agency must
review
the
source
water samples
taken by
the supplier both
before
and after the
supplier
installs
source water
treatment, and
determine
whether
the supplier has
properly
installed
and
operated
the approved
source
water treatment.
B)
Based on its
review, the
Agency
must,
by
a
SEP
issued pursuant
to Section
611.110,
approve the
lead and copper MPCs
for finished water
entering
the
supplier’s
distribution
system.
Such levels
must reflect
the
contaminant
removal
capability
of the
treatment
properly
operated
and
maintained.
C)
The
Agency must explain
the basis for
its decision
under subsection
(b) (4) (B)
of
this Section.
5)
Continued operation
and maintenance.
Each
supplier must maintain
lead and
copper
levels below the
MPC5 approved
by
the Agency
at each sampling
point
monitored
in accordance with
Section 611.358.
The
supplier
is
out
of
compliance
with this subsection
if
the
level of lead or
copper at any
sampling point
is
greater than the
MPC approved by
the Agency
pursuant to subsection
(b)
(4) (B)
of
this
Section.
6)
Modification
of Agency
treatment decisions.
A)
On its own
initiative, or
in response
to a
request
by
a
supplier, the
Agency
may,
by a
SEP
issued pursuant
to
Section
611.110, modify
its
determination
of the
source
water treatment
under
subsection
(b) (2)
of this
Section,
or the lead and
copper MPCs under
subsection
(b)
(4)
of this Section.
B)
A request
for modification
by a supplier must
be in writing,
explain
why
the
modification is
appropriate, and
provide supporting
documentation.
C)
The Agency
may, by
a SEP
issued
pursuant
to Section
611.110,
modify its
determination
where
it concludes that
such
change
is necessary
to
ensure that
the
supplier continues
to
minimize lead
and
copper
concentrations
in
source
water.
D)
A
revised
determination
made
pursuant to
subsection
(b) (6)
(C)
of
this
Section
must set forth
the
new
treatment
requirements,
explain
the basis
for
the
Agency’s
decision, and
provide an implementation
schedule
for completing
the
treatment
modifications.
E)
Any interested person may submit information
to the Agency, in
writing,
that bears on whether the Agency should, within
its discretion, issue
a SEP to
modify its determination pursuant
to subsection
(h) (1)
of this
Section. An
Agency determination not to
act
on a submission
of such information
by an
interested
person is not an Agency determination
for the purposes of
Sections
39
and 40 of the Act

the USEPA Regional Administrator reserves
the prerogative
to review
treatment determinations made
by
the Agency
under subsections
(b)
(2), (b) (4),
or
(b) (6)
of this Section and issue federal
treatment determinations
consistent
with
the requirements of 40 CFR 141.83
(b) (2), (b) (4)
, and
(b)
(6),
where the
Administrator finds that the following is
true:
A)
the Agency has failed to issue
a
treatment
determination
by
the
applicable
deadline
contained in subsection
(a)
of this
Section;
B)
the Agency has
abused its discretion in
a substantial number of cases
or
in
cases
affecting
a substantial population; or
C)
the technical
aspects of the Agency’s
determination would be indefensible
in an expected federal enforcement
action taken
against a supplier.

Lead
Service Line Replacement
a)
Suppliers required
to replace lead service
lines.
1)
If the results from
tap samples taken pursuant
to Section
611.356(d)
(2)
exceed the lead action level
after the supplier has installed
corrosion control
or source water treatment
(whichever
sampling occurs later),
the supplier must
recommence replacing lead service lines
in accordance with the
requirements of
subsection
(b)
of this Section.
2)
If a
supplier
is in violation of Section
611.351 or Section 611.353
for
failure
to
install
source water or corrosion control
treatment, the Agency
may,
by a
SEP issued pursuant
to Section 611.110, require the
supplier to commence
lead
service line replacement under
this Section after the
date by which the
supplier was required
to
conduct
monitoring under Section
611.356
Cd) (2)
has
passed.
b)
Annual replacement of lead
service lines.
1)
Initiation of a lead service
line replacement program.
A)
A supplier that is required
to commence lead service
line replacement
pursuant to subsection
(a)
of
this Section must annually
replace at least seven
percent of the initial number of lead
service lines in its distribution
system.
2-B)
The initial number of lead service
lines is the number of lead lines
in
place at the
time
the replacement program
begins.
C)
The
supplier
must
identify
the
initial
number
of lead
service
lines
in its
distribution
system,
including
an
identification
of
the portions
of the
system
owned
by
the
supplier,
based
on a
materials
evaluation,
including
the evaluation
required
under
Section
611.356(a)
and
relevant
legal authorities
(e.g.,
contracts,
local
ordinances)
regarding
the
portion
owned
by
the system.
4D)
The
first year
of lead
service
line
replacement
must begin
on the
datc
first
day
following
the
end
of the
monitoring
period in
which
the
supplier
exceeded
the
action
level
in
tap
sampling
rcfcrcnccd
in
pursuant
to subsection
(a)
of
this
Section.
E)
If
monitoring
is
required
annually
or less
frequently,
the
end
of
the
monitoring
period
is September
30 of
the
calendar
year
in
which the
sampling
occurs.
F)
If
the Agency
has established
an
alternate
monitoring
period
by
a SEP
issued pursuant
to
Section
611.110,
then
the end
of
the
monitoring
period
will
be
the last
day
of
that
period.
2)
Resumption
of a
lead
service
line
replacement
program
after
cessation.
A)
A supplier
that
is resuming
a
program
after
cessation
of its
lead
service
line
replacement
program,
as
allowed
pursuant
to subsection
(f)
of
this
Section
must
update
its
inventory
of
lead service
lines
to include
those sites
that
it
had previously
determined
did
not
require
replacement
pursuant
to
the
sampling
provision
of subsection
(c)
of
this
Section.
B)
The supplier
will
then divide
the
updated number
of
remaining
lead
service
lines
by the
number
of remaining
years in
the program
to
determine
the
number
of
lines
that must
be
replaced
per year
(seven
percent
lead service
line
replacement
is
based
on a 15-year
replacement
program,
so
that,
for example,
a
supplier
resuming
lead
service
line replacement
after previously
conducting
two
years
of replacement
would
divide
the updated
inventory
by
13).
C)
For
a
supplier
that
has completed
a
15-year
lead
service
line
replacement
program,
the
Agency
must,
by
a SEP issued
pursuant
to
Section
611.110,
determine
a
schedule
for
replacing
or retesting
lines
that
were
previously
tested out
under
the completed
replacement
program,
whenever
the
supplier
has
re-exceeded
the action
level.
c)
Service
lines
not
needing
replacement.
A
supplier
is
not required
to
replace
any
individual
lead service
line
for
which
the
lead concentrations
in
all
service
line
samples
taken
from that
line
pursuant
to
Section
611.356(b)
(3)
are
less
than or
equal to
0.015 mg/l.
d)
A water
supplier
must replace
that
portion
of the
lead
service
line
that
it owns.
In
cases
where
the
supplier
does
not own
the
entire
lead service
line,
the supplier
must
notify the
owner
of
the line,
or
the
owner’s
authorized
agent,
that the
supplier
will
replace
the portion
of
the service
line
that it
owns
and
must offer
to
replace
the owner’s
portion
of the
line.
A supplier
is not
required
to
bear
the cost
of replacing
the
privately-owned
portion
of the line,
nor
is it
required
to replace
the
privately-owned
portion
where
the
owner
chooses
not
to
pay
the
cost
of replacing
the
privately-owned
portion
of the
line,
or where
replacing
the privately-owned
portion
would
be
prec]uded
by
State,
local,
or
common
law.
A water
supplier
that
does
not
replace
the
entire
length
of
the
service
line
also
must
complete
the following
tasks:
1)
Notice Prior
to
Commencement
of Work.
A)
At
least 45 days prior
to
commencing
the partial replacement
of
a lead
service
line,
the
water supplier must
provide
notice to the residents
of all
buildings
served
by
the
line explaining
that
they
may experience
a
temporary
increase
of
lead
levels in
their drinking
water,
along
with guidance
on measures
consumers
can take to
minimize
their exposure
to lead.
B)
The
Agency,
by
issuing an appropriate
SEP,
may allow the
water supplier to
provide
notice
under
the previous sentence
less
than
45 days prior
to
commencing
partial
lead service
line
replacement where
it determines
that such
replacement
is
in
conjunction
with emergency
repairs.
C)
In addition,
the water
supplier
must
inform
the residents
served by the
line that the
supplier
will,
at
the
supplier’s expense,
collect
a
sample
from
each
partially-replaced
lead
service line
that is representative
of the
water in
the
service line for analysis
of lead
content, as prescribed
by
Section
611.356(b) (3),
within
72 hours after
the
completion
of the partial
replacement
of the
service
line. The
supplier
must collect
the sample and
report
the
results
of the analysis
to
the owner and
the residents
served by the
line
within
three business
days
of receiving
the results.
D)
Mailed notices
post-marked
within
three business
days
of receiving
the
results
must be considered
“on time.”
2)
The
water supplier
must
provide
the information
required
by
subsection
(d) (1)
of this
Section
to
the
residents
of individual
dwellings
by
mail or by
other methods approved
by
the Agency
by a SEP issued
pursuant
to
Section
611.110.
In instances
where
multi-family
dwellings are
served
by the
service
line,
the water supplier
must
have
the
option to post the
information at a
conspicuous
location.
e)
Agency determination
of shorter
replacement
schedule.
1)
The Agency must,
by a
SEP
issued
pursuant to Section
611.110, require
a
supplier
to replace lead
service
lines
on
a shorter schedule
than that otherwise
required by
this Section if
it determines,
taking
into account
the number of
lead service lines
in the system,
that
such a shorter
replacement schedule
is
feasible.
2)
The
Agency must notify
the
supplier of its finding
pursuant
to
subsection
(e) (1)
of this
Section
within six months
after the
supplier is
triggered
into
lead
service line replacement
based on
monitoring,
as referenced in
subsection
(a)
of
this
Section.
f)
Cessation
of service line
replacement.
1)
Any supplier may
cease
replacing
lead service lines
whenever it fulfills
both of
the following conditions:
A)
First draw
tap samples
collected
pursuant to
Section
611.356(b) (2)
meet
the
lead action level
during each of
two consecutive
six-month monitoring
periods;
and
B)
The supplier
has submitted those
results
to the Agency.

A)
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT LEAD IN YOUR
DRINKING WATER.
[INSERT
NABE OF
SUPPLIER]
found elevated levels of lead in drinking water in
some
homes/buildings. Lead can cause serious health problems, especially
for
pregnant women and young children. Please read this information
closely to see
what
you
can
do to
reduce lead in your drinking water.
BOARD NOTE: The supplier must use the verbatim
text set
forth
in this
subsection
(a) (1) (A),
with the exception that
the
supplier must
insert its name
in place of the bracketed text.
B)
Health effects of lead. Lead can
cause serious health problems if too
much enters your
body
from drinking water or
other sources. It can cause damage
to the brain and
kidneys, and can interfere
with the production of red blood
cells that carry
oxygen
to
all parts
of your body. The greatest risk of lead
exposure is to
infants, young children,
and pregnant women. Scientists have
linked
the effects
of lead on the brain with
lowered IQ in children. Adults
with kidney problems and high blood pressure
can be
affected
by low levels of
lead more than healthy adults. Lead is stored in the bones, and it
can be
released later in life. During pregnancy, the child receives lead from
the
mothers bones, which may affect brain development.
BOARD NOTE: The supplier must use the verbatim text
set
forth in this
subsection
(a) (1) (B)
C)
Sources of
Lead.
i)
Explain what
lead
is.
ii)
Explain possible sources of lead in drinking water and how lead enters
drinking water. Include
information
on home and building plumbing materials and
service lines that may contain
lead.
iii)
Discuss other
important
sources of lead exposure in addition to drinking
water (e.g.,
paint).
BOARD NOTE: The supplier must use text that provides the information
described
in
this subsection
(a) (1) (C)
D)
Discuss the steps the consumer can take
to
reduce his or her exposure
to
lead
in drinking water.
i)
Encourage running the water to flush out the lead.
ii)
Explain concerns with using hot water from the tap and specifically
caution against the use of hot water for preparing baby formula.
iii)
Explain that boiling
water
does not reduce lead levels.
iv)
Discuss other options consumers
can take to reduce exposure to lead in
drinking water, such
as
alternative sources or treatment of water.
v)
Suggest that parents have their child’s blood
tested
for lead.
BOARD NOTE: The supplier must use text that
provides the information
described
in this subsection
(a) (1) (D)
E)
water
homes
Explain why there are elevated levels
of lead in the supplier’s drinking
(if known)
and what the supplier is
doing to reduce the lead levels
in
and buildings in this area.
BOARD NOTE: The supplier must
use
text that
provides the information
described
in this subsection

includc the text In addition to including the elements
specified in subsection
(a) (1)
of this Section or must includc the text
set
forth
in Appcndix F of this
Part in all of thc printcd matcrials it distributes through
its lead public
education program. A water supplier may delete information
pertaining to lead
service lines
upon approval
by the Agency by

date
pursuant
to subsection
(a) (3) (F)
of
this Section. The
Agency and the supplier may agree
to a longer time within
which
the
Agency may issue a SEP or
a
revised SEP, in which
case the Agency must
issue
the
SEP or revised SEP before expiration of the agreed longer time.
BOARD NOTE: The
Board has provided that the Agency and
the supplier may agree
to a longer time
before the Agency issues
a
SEP and
for the Agency to issue a
revised SEP that
supercedes an
already-issued SEP, in order to allow for
negotiation of any
issues and
the quickest possible distribution of the
materials.
F)
If the
supplier has not received
a SEP
from
the Agency within 45 days
after the date on
which the Agency received
its written public education
materials
to thc Agcncy, those materials are
deemed approved, and the supplier
may immediately
proceed
to
distribute them.
G)
Once the
supplier has revised its written public
education
materials
exactly as
described
by
the Agency in
a
SEP issued
under subsection
(a) (3) (U)
of
this Section,
those materials are deemed approved, and the supplier may
immediately proceed to distribute them.
BOARD
NOTE: At corresponding 40 CFR
141.85(a) (1) (2007),
USEPA allowed the
State to
require prior approval of written public information materials. Rather
than require
prior Agency approval, the Board has chosen
to
require submission
to the
Agency for review sufficiently in advance of distribution
to
allow
the
Agency to
raise any deficiencies that it may perceive. The Board has
used the
mechanism of the SEP for the Agency
to
communicate its concerns,
as
this would
allow the supplier to petition the Board for review of the Agency’s
determination pursuant to Section
611.110(c).

of
this Section, each
supplier
must complete
a
materials
evaluation
of
its
distribution
system in order
to identify
a pool of
targeted
sampling
sites
that meets
the
requirements of this
Section.
B)
The
pooi of targeted
sampling sites
must be
sufficiently
large
to ensure
that
the
supplier can collect
the number
of lead and
copper
tap
samples
required
by
subsection
(c)
of this Section.
C)
The supplier
must select the
sites for collection
of first draw
samples
from
this
pool of targeted
sampling sites.
D)
The supplier
must not select
as sampling
sites
any faucets
that have
point-of-use or
point-of-entry treatment
devices
designed
to
remove
or
capable
of
removing inorganic
contaminants.
2)
Materials
evaluation.
A)
A
supplier must
use the information
on lead,
copper, and galvanized
steel
collected
pursuant
to
40
CFR
141.42(d)
(special monitoring
for corrosivity
characteristics)
when conducting
a materials
evaluation.
B)
When an
evaluation
of the information
collected
pursuant
to
40 CFR
141.42(d)
is
insufficient
to locate the
requisite number
of lead and
copper
sampling
sites
that meet
the targeting criteria
in subsection
(a)
of this
Section, the
supplier
must review
the following
sources of information
in
order
to
identify a
sufficient
number
of sampling sites:
i)
All
plumbing
codes,
permits, and
records in
the
files
of the building
departments
that
indicate
the plumbing materials
that
are installed
within
publicly-
and privately-owned
structures connected
to
the distribution
system;
ii)
All inspections and records of the
distribution system that
indicate the
material composition of the service connections
which connect
a structure to the
distribution system;
iii) All existing water
quality
information,
which includes the results
of all
prior analyses of the
system or
individual
structures connected
to the system,
indicating locations that may
be
particularly
susceptible
to
high lead
or copper
concentrations; and
iv)
The supplier
must
seek to collect such information
where possible in the
course of its
normal operations
(e.g., checking service
line materials when
reading
water meters or
performing maintenance activities)
3)
Tiers of sampling sites. Suppliers
must categorize the sampling sites
within their pool according
to
the following
tiers:
A)

b)
Sample collection methods.
1)
All
tap samples for lead and copper collected
in accordance with this
Subpart
G,
with
the exception of lead service line
samples collected under
Section
611.354(c)
and
samples collected under subsection
(b) (5)
of this
Section, must
be
first-draw
samples.
2)
First-draw
tap
samples.
A)
Each first-draw
tap sample for lead and copper must
be
one
liter in volume
and have
stood
motionless
in the plumbing system of each sampling
site
for
at
least six hours.
B)
First-draw samples from residential
housing must be collected from
the
cold water kitchen tap or bathroom sink
tap.
C)
First-draw
samples from
a
non-residential
building must be one liter in
volume and must
be collected at an interior
tap
from
which water is typically
drawn for consumption.
D)
Non-first-draw
samples collected
in
lieu of first-draw
samples pursuant
to
subsection
(b) (5)
of this Section
must be one
liter in volume and
must be
collected at
an interior
tap
from
which water is
typically drawn for
consumption.
E)
First-draw
samples may
be collected
by the supplier or
the supplier
may
allow
residents
to
collect first-draw
samples
after instructing
the residents
of
the sampling
procedures
specified in
this subsection
(b)
i)
To
avoid
problems
of residents
handling
nitric
acid, acidification
of
first-draw
samples may
be done up
to
14
days
after the
sample is
collected.
ii)
After
acidification
to resolubilize
the
metals,
the
sample must
stand in
the original
container
for
the time specified
in the
approved
USEPA
method
before the
sample
can
be analyzed.
F)
If
a
supplier
allows
residents
to
perform sampling
under
subsection
(b)
(2)
(D)
of
this
Section,
the supplier
may
not
challenge
the accuracy
of
sampling
results based on
alleged errors in
sample
collection.
3)
Service line
samples.
A)
Each
service line
sample must
be one liter
in
volume
and
have
stood
motionless
in the lead service
line for
at least six
hours.
B)
Lead service
line
samples
must
be
collected
in
one of the following
three
ways:
i)
At
the tap
after flushing
that volume
of water calculated
as being
between
the tap and
the lead
service line
based on the
interior diameter
and length
of
the pipe
between the
tap
and
the
lead service line;
ii)
Tapping
directly into
the lead
service
line; or
iii)
If the
sampling
site is a single-family
structure,
allowing
the
water
to
run until
there is a
significant change
in temperature that
would
be
indicative
of
water
that has been standing
in the lead
service
line.
4)
Follow-up
first-draw
tap samples.
A)
A supplier
must
collect each follow-up
first-draw
tap sample from
the same
sampling
site from which
it collected the
previous samples.
B)
If, for
any
reason, the supplier
cannot
gain
entry
to
a
sampling
site in
order
to
collect a
follow-up tap sample,
the
supplier
may collect the
follow-up
tap
sample
from another
sampling site in
its
sampling
pool,
as
long
as the new
site
meets
the
same
targeting
criteria and
is
within
reasonable
proximity
of the
original site.
5)
Substitute
non-first-draw
samples.
A)
A
NTNCWS
supplier or a CWS
supplier
that meets
the
criteria
of Sections
61l.355(eb)
(7) (A)
and
(eb) (7) (B),
that
does not
have
enough
taps
that can
supply
first-draw
samples, as
defined in
Section 611.102,
may
apply
to the
Agency in
writing
to
substitute non-first-draw
samples
by a SEP
granted
under
Section
611
.110.
B)
A
supplier approved to substitute non-first-draw
samples must collect
as
many first-draw samples
from appropriate
taps
as
possible
and identify sampling
times and locations that
would likely
result in the longest
standing time for
the remaining sites.
C)
The Agency may grant a
SEP
that waives the requirement for
prior Agency
approval
of non-first-draw zamplc sampling sites selected
by
the
system.
c)
Number of samples.
1)
Suppliers must collect at least one sample from the number
of sites listed
in the first column of Table 3D of this Part (labelled
“standard monitoring”)
during each six-month monitoring period
specified in subsection
(d)
of this
Section.
2)
A supplier conducting reduced monitoring
pursuant to subsection
(d) (4)
of
this Section must collect one sample from the
number of sites specified in the
second column of Table 3D of this Part
(labelled
“reduced
monitoring”)
during
each reduced monitoring period specified in subsection
(d)
(4) of
this Section.
Such reduced monitoring sites must be representative of the sites
required for
standard monitoring. A supplier whose system has fewer than five
drinking water
taps that can be used for human consumption and which can meet the
sampling site
criteria of subsection
(a)
of this Section
to
reach the required number
of
sampling
sites
listed in this
subsection
7
(c)-
must collect multiple samples
from
individual taps.
To accomplish this,
the supplier must collect at least
one
sample
from each
tap,
then it must collect
additional samples from those same
taps on
different
days
during the monitoring
period, in order to collect
a total
number of
samples that meets the required
number of sampling sites.
Alternatively, the Agency must,
by a
SEP
issued pursuant to Section 611.110,
allow
a
supplier whose system has fewer
than five drinking water taps to collect
a
number
of
samples that is fewer than
the number of sites specified in this
subsection
(c)
of thic Section if it
determines that 100 percent of all taps
that can be used
for human consumption
are sampled and that the reduced number
of samples
will produce the
same
results
as would the collection of multiple
samples from
some
taps. Any Agency approval of a reduction of the minimum
number of
samples must
be based on a request from the supplier or on on-site
verification
by
the Agency. The
Agency may, by a SEP issued pursuant to
Section
611.110, specify sampling locations when
a system is conducting reduced
monitoring.
d)
Timing of monitoring.
1)
Initial tap sampling.
The first
six-month
monitoring period for small, medium-sized and large
system
suppliers must
begin on the dates specified in Table E of this Part.
A)
All large system suppliers
must monitor during each of two consecutive
six-month periods.
B)
All small- and medium-sized
system
suppliers
must monitor during each
consecutive six-month monitoring
period
until
the
following
is true:
i)
The supplier exceeds the lead action level or
the copper action level and
is therefore required to implement the corrosion control treatment requirements
under Section
611.351,
in which case the supplier must continue monitoring
in
accordance
with
subsection
(d) (2)
of this Section; or
ii)
The supplier
meets
the lead
action level and
the copper action
level
during each
of two consecutive
six-month
monitoring periods,
in which
case the
supplier
may
reduce monitoring
in
accordance
with subsection
(d) (4)
of this
Section.
2)
Monitoring after
installation
of corrosion
control and source
water
treatment.
A)

large
system supplier
that
installs
optimal corrosion
control
treatment
pursuant
to Section 611.351
Cd) (4)
must
have monitored
during each of
two
consecutive six-month
monitoring
periods before
January 1, 1998.
B)
Any
small-
or medium-sized
system
supplier that
installs
optimal corrosion
control
treatment
pursuant
to
Section
611.351(e)
(5)
must monitor
during each
of
two
consecutive six-month
monitoring
periods before
36
months
after
the Agency
approves
optimal corrosion
control
treatment, as
specified in Section
611.351
Ce)
(6).
C)
Any
supplier
that installs
source water treatment
pursuant
to Section
611.353
(a) (3)
must monitor
during each
of two consecutive
six-month monitoring
periods
before 36
months after
completion
of
step
2,
as
specified in
Section
611.353
(a)
(4).
3)
Monitoring
after
the
Agency
specification
of
water quality parameter
values
for
optimal corrosion
control.
After
the Agency
specifies the
values for
water quality
control parameters
pursuant
to
Section
611.352(f),
the supplier
must monitor during
each
subsequent
six-month
monitoring
period, with
the first six-month
monitoring
period
to
begin
on the
date
the Agency
specifies
the optimal values.
4)
Reduced
monitoring.
A)
Reduction to
annual for small-
and medium-sized
system suppliers
meeting
the lead and
copper action
levels.
A small- or medium-sized
system
supplier
that
meets
the lead and copper
action levels
during each
of
two consecutive
six-
month
monitoring
periods may
reduce
the
number of
samples
in accordance with
subsection
Cc)
of this Section,
and
reduce
the frequency
of
sampling to once
per
year. A
small- or
medium-sized system
supplier
that
collects fewer
than five
samples as
specified
in subsection
Cc)
of this Section and
which meets
the lead
and
copper
action
levels
during each of two
consecutive six-month
monitoring
periods
may
reduce
its
frequency
of sampling
to once
per year.
In
no case
can
the
supplier
reduce the
number of
samples required
below the minimum
of one
sample
per
available
tap.
This
reduced
sampling may
only begin during
the
calendar
year
immediately following
the
end of the second
consecutive six-month
monitoring
period.
B)
SEP
allowing reduction
to
annual for suppliers
maintaining
water
quality
control
parameters.
i)
Any supplier
that meets the
lead
action
level and
which
maintains the
range
of values
for
the water quality
control parameters
reflecting
optimal
corrosion
control
treatment
specified
by
the Agency under
Section 611.352(f)
during each

This reduced
sampling may only
begin
during the
calendar
year
immediately
following
the
end of
the second consecutive
six-month
monitoring
period.
ii)
The
Agency must
review
monitoring, treatment,
and
other
relevant
information
submitted
by the
water system in accordance
with Section
611.360,
and must notify
the system
in writing
by
a

it determines
the system
is eligible
to
reduce its monitoring
frequency
to
once every three
years pursuant
to this
subsection
(d) (4)
iii)
The
Agency must
review,
and where appropriate,
revise its
determination
under
subsection

Agency.
C)
Reduction to
triennial for small-
and medium-sized
system
suppliers.
i)
Small-
and medium-sized
system
suppliers meeting
lead
and copper
action
levels.
A
small- or medium-sized
system
supplier that
meets
the lead action
level
and
which
meets the lead and
copper
action levels
during
three consecutive
years of
monitoring
may reduce the
frequency
of
monitoring
for
lead and copper
from
annually
to once
every three years.
ii)
SEP

during
three consecutive
years of
monitoring
may
reduce
its
monitoring frequency
from annual
to once
every three
years
if it
receives written
approval from
the Agency in
the form
of
a
SEP
granted
pursuant
to
Section
611.110.
Samples collected
once every
three years must
be collected
no
later than
every
third calendar
year.
iii)
The

from
representative
sites
included in
the pool
of targeted
sampling sites identified
in subsection
(a)
of
this
Section,
preferentially
selecting
those sampling
sites
from the highest
tier
first.
Suppliers sampling
annually
or less frequently
must conduct
the
lead and
copper
tap sampling during
the months
of June,
July,
August, or
September,
unless
the Agency has approved
a different
sampling
period in
accordance
with subsection
(d) (4) (D) (i)
of
this
Section.
i)
The
Agency
may grant
a
SEP pursuant
to Section
611.110 that
approves
a
different
period
for conducting
the lead
and
copper tap
sampling
for systems
collecting
a
reduced
number of samples.
Such
a period
must
be
no
longer than
four
consecutive months
and must represent
a time
of
normal
operation
where the
highest
levels of lead are
most likely
to occur. For
a NTNCWS
supplier
that
does
not
operate
during
the
months of June through
September and
for which
the
period of normal
operation
where
the highest levels
of lead are most
likely
to
occur
is not
known, the Agency
must
designate
a
period
that represents
a time of
normal
operation
for the system.
This
reduced sampling
may only begin during
the
period
approved
or designated
by the Agency
in the calendar
year immediately
following
the end
of the second consecutive
six-month
monitoring period
for
systems
initiating
annual monitoring
and
during
the
three-year
period following
the end of
the third
consecutive calendar
year
of
annual
monitoring
for a
supplier
initiating
triennial
monitoring.
ii)
A supplier
monitoring
annually
that has
been collecting samples
during
the
months of June
through
September and which
receives
Agency approval
to alter its
sample collection
period
under subsection
Cd) (4) (D) (i)
of this Section
must
collect
its
next round
of samples during
a time period that
ends no later
than
21 months
after
the previous
round of sampling.
A supplier
monitoring once
every
three
years
that

a time period that
ends no later
than
45
months
after
the previous
round of sampling.
Subsequent
rounds of sampling
must
be
collected
annually
or
once every three
years,
as required
by this
Section. A
small
system supplier
with a waiver granted
pursuant to
subsection
(g) of
this
Section that
has been collecting
samples
during the months
of
June
through
September
and which
receives Agency
approval to
alter its sample
collection
period
under
subsection
Cd) (4) CD) (i)
of
this Section
must collect
its
next round
of samples
before the

E)
Any water
system that demonstrates
for two consecutive
six-month
monitoring
periods
that the
tap
water
lead
level computed under
Section
611.350(c) (3)
is less
than or equal
to 0.005 mg/l
and
that
the
tap water copper
level computed
under
Section 611.350(c)
(3)
is less
than
or equal
to
0.65 mg/l
may
reduce
the number of
samples in
accordance with
subsection
Cc)
of
this
Section
and
reduce the frequency
of sampling
to once
every three
calendar
years.
F)
Resumption of
standard monitoring.
i)
Small-
or medium-sized
suppliers exceeding
lead
or copper
action level.
A
small-
or
medium-sized
system
supplier
subject to
reduced monitoring
that
exceeds
the
lead
action level or
the copper
action
level must resume
sampling
in
accordance
subsection
Cd) (3)
of this
Section and collect
the number of
samples
specified
for standard
monitoring under
subsection
(c)
of
this Section.
Such a
supplier
must also conduct
water quality parameter
monitoring
in accordance
with
Section 611.357
(b), Cc),
or
Cd)
(as
appropriate)
during the six-month
monitoring
period in
which
it exceeded
the action
level. Any such
supplier
may
resume
annual
monitoring
for
lead and
copper
at
the tap
at the reduced

supplier may resume
monitoring
once
every three
years
for lead
and copper at the
reduced
number
of
sites after
it
demonstrates
through
subsequent
rounds of monitoring
that
it meets
the
criteria
of
either subsection
Cd) (4) (C)
or
Cd) (4) CE)
of this
Section.
ii)
Suppliers failing
to
operate within
water
quality
control
parameters. Any
supplier
subject to reduced
monitoring
frequency
that
fails
to
meet
the lead
action
level
during any four-month
monitoring
period
or that
fails
to
operate
within
the
range of values for
the water quality

e)
Additional
monitoring.
The results
of
any
monitoring
conducted in
addition
to
the
minimum
requirements
of this
Section
must be
considered
by the
supplier and
the
Agency
in making
any determinations
(i.e.,
calculating
the
90th
percentile lead
action
level or
the copper level)
under this Subpart
G.
f)
Invalidation
of lead
or copper tap
water
samples.
A sample invalidated
under this
subsection
does
not count toward
determining lead
or copper 90th
percentile
levels
under
Section
611.350(c) (3)
or toward meeting
the minimum
monitoring
requirements
of subsection
(c)
of this
Section.
1)
The Agency
must invalidate
a lead
or copper
tap
water
sample if it
determines
that
one of the following
conditions
exists:
A)
The laboratory
establishes
that improper sample
analysis caused
erroneous
results;
B)
The
sample
was taken from
a site that
did not meet the
site selection
criteria of
this Section;
C)
The
sample container
was damaged
in transit; or
D)
There
is
substantial reason
to
believe
that the
sample was
subject to
tampering.
2)
The
supplier must report
the results
of all
samples to
the Agency
and all
supporting
documentation for
samples the
supplier
believes should
be
invalidated.
3)
To
invalidate a
sample under subsection
(f) (1)
of
this Section, the
decision
and the
rationale
for the decision
must
be
documented
in writing.
The
Agency
may
not
invalidate
a
sample solely on the
grounds that a
follow-up
sample
result is
higher or lower
than that
of the original
sample.
4)
The water
supplier must
collect replacement
samples
for any samples
invalidated
under
this Section if,
after the
invalidation
of one or
more
samples, the
supplier
has too few samples
to meet
the
minimum requirements
of
subsection
(c)
of this
Section. Any such
replacement samples
must
be
taken
as
soon
as
possible, but no
later than 20
days after the
date the
Agency
invalidates
the sample or by
the end of the applicable
monitoring
period,
whichever
occurs
later. Replacement
samples
taken
after the end of
the
applicable
monitoring
period must not
also
be
used to
meet the monitoring
requirements
of
a subsequent
monitoring
period. The replacement
samples must
be
taken
at
the
same
locations
as the invalidated
samples or, if
that is not
possible,
at
locations
other
than those already
used
for sampling
during the
monitoring
period.
g)
Monitoring
waivers for
small
system
suppliers.
Any
small system supplier
that
meets
the
criteria of this
subsection
(g) may apply to
the Agency to reduce
the
frequency
of monitoring
for
lead and copper
under this Section
to once every
nine
years
(i.e.,
a “full
waiver”)
if it meets all
of
the
materials
criteria
specified
in
subsection (g)
(1)
of
this
Section and all
of
the monitoring
criteria specified in subsection (g)
(2)
of this Section.
Any small system
supplier that meets the criteria in subsections
(g)
(1)
and (g)
(2)
of this
Section only for lead, or only for copper, may
apply to the State for a waiver
to reduce the frequency of tap water monitoring
to
once
every nine years for
that contaminant only
(i.e.,
a ‘partial
waiver”).
1)
Materials
criteria.
The supplier must demonstrate that its distribution
system and service
lines and
all drinking water supply plumbing, including
plumbing conveying
drinking water
within all residences and buildings connected
to the system, are
free
of lead-containing materials or copper-containing
materials, as those
terms
are defined in this subsection
(g)
(1),
as
follows:
A)
Lead. To
qualify
for a full waiver, or a waiver of the
tap
water
monitoring requirements for lead
(i.e.,
a “lead
waiver”),
the water supplier
must provide
certification
and supporting documentation
to
the Agency that
the
system is free of all
lead-containing
materials, as follows:
i)
It contains no
plastic
pipes that contain lead plasticizers, or plastic
service lines that
contain
lead plasticizers; and
ii)
It is free
of lead service
lines, lead pipes, lead soldered pipe joints,
and leaded brass
or bronze alloy
fittings and fixtures, unless such fittings
and
fixtures meet
the specifications
of NSF Standard 61, section
9,
incorporated
by
reference in
Section 611.102.
BOARD
NOTE:
Corresponding
40 CFR 141.86(g)
(1) (i) (B)
specifies “any
standard
established pursuant
to 42 USC 300g-6(e)
(SDWA
section
1417(e))
USEPA has stated
that the NSF
standard is that standard.
See
62 Fed. Reg.
44684
(Aug. 22,
1997)
B)
Copper.
To qualify for
a
full
waiver, or a waiver of the tap water
monitoring requirements for copper
(i.e.,
a “copper
waiver”),
the water supplier
must provide certification and supporting documentation
to the Agency that the
system contains no copper pipes or copper service lines.
2)
Monitoring criteria for waiver issuance. The supplier must have completed
at least one six-month round of standard tap water monitoring for lead and
copper at sites
approved
by
the
Agency and from the number of sites required
by
subsection
(c)
of this Section and
demonstrate that the 90th percentile levels
for any and all rounds of monitoring
conducted since the system became free
of
all
lead-containing or copper-containing
materials, as appropriate, meet the
following
criteria:
A)
Lead levels.
To qualify
for a full waiver, or a lead waiver, the
supplier
must demonstrate that the 90th percentile lead level does not exceed
0.005 mg/l.
B)
Copper
levels.
To qualify for a full waiver, or
a
copper waiver, the
supplier must
demonstrate that
the 90th percentile copper level
does
not exceed
0.65 mg/l.
3)
State
approval of waiver application.
The Agency must notify the supplier
of its waiver determination by
a
SEP
issued pursuant to Section 611.110, in
writing, setting forth the basis of its decision and
any condition of the
waiver. As a
condition
of the waiver, the Agency may require the supplier
to
perform specific activities
(e.g., limited monitoring, periodic outreach
to
customers
to
remind them
to
avoid installation
of materials that might void
the
waiver)
to avoid the risk of lead
or
copper
concentration of concern in tap
water.
The
small system supplier must
continue monitoring
for lead and copper
at
the
tap as
required
by
subsections
Cd) (1)
through
Cd) (4)
of this Section,
as
appropriate,
until it
receives written
notification
from the Agency that the
waiver
has been
approved.
4)
Monitoring frequency for suppliers
with waivers.
A)
A supplier with
a
full waiver must
conduct
tap
water monitoring
for lead
and copper in accordance with subsection
(d) (4) CD)
of this
Section at the
reduced number of sampling sites identified
in subsection
(c)
of this Section
at
least once every nine years and provide
the materials certification
specified in
subsection (g)
(1)
of this Section for
both lead and copper
to
the
Agency along
with the monitoring results. Samples
collected every nine
years must be
collected no later than every ninth
calendar year.
B)
A supplier with
a
partial waiver
must conduct
tap
water
monitoring for the
waived contaminant in accordance with
subsection
Cd) (4) (D)
of this
Section at
the reduced number of sampling sites
specified in subsection
(c)
of
this Section
at least once every nine years and
provide the materials certification
specified
in subsection (g)
(1)
of this
Section pertaining
to
the waived
contaminant along
with the monitoring results.
Such a supplier also must continue
to monitor for
the non-waived contaminant in accordance
with requirements of
subsections
Cd) Cl)
through
(d) (4)
of this Section,
as
appropriate.
C)
If a Any supplier with a full or partial
waiver adds a now oourcc
of watcr
or changcz any watcr trcatmcnt, thc cupplicr
must notify the Agency in writing
in accordance with Section
611.360(a) (3)
of
any upcoming long-term change
in
treatment
or addition of a new source,
as described in that zcctionSection.
The
Agency must
review
and approve the addition of
a
new
source or long-term change
in water treatment before it is implemented
by the supplier. The Agency has
the
authority to require the supplier to add or modify waiver
conditions (e.g.,
require recertification that the supplier’s system is free
of lead-containing
or
copper-containing materials, require additional rounds
of monitoring), if it
deems such
modifications
are necessary to address treatment
or source water
changes at
the
system.
D)
If
a
supplier with
a
full
or partial waiver becomes aware
that it is no
longer free of lead-containing
or copper-containing materials,
as appropriate
(e.g., as a
result of new construction
or repairs), the supplier must
notify the
Agency in writing no later
than 60 days after becoming aware of
such a change.
5)
Continued eligibility. If
the supplier continues
to
satisfy the
requirements of subsection
(g)
(4)
of this Section, the waiver will
be renewed
automatically, unless any of the
conditions listed in subsection
(g)
(5)
(A)
through (g)
(5) (C)
of this Section
occur.
A
supplier whose waiver has
been
revoked may re-apply for a waiver
at
such time
as
it
again meets the appropriate
materials and monitoring
criteria of subsections (g)
(1)
and
(g)
(2)
of this
Section.
A)
A supplier with
a
full waiver
or a lead waiver no longer
satisfies the
materials criteria of subsection
(g)
(1) (A)
of this Section or has
a 90th
percentile lead level greater than
0.005 mg/l.
B)
A supplier
with
a full waiver
or a copper waiver no longer satisfies
the
materials
criteria of
subsection
(g)
(1)
(B)
of
this Section or has a 90th
percentile copper
level
greater than
0.65
mg/l.
C)
The State notifies the supplier, in writing, that
the waiver has been
revoked, setting
forth
the basis of its decision.
6)
Requirements
following
waiver revocation. A
supplier whose full or
partial waiver has
been revoked
by the Agency is
subject to the corrosion
control treatment
and lead
and copper tap water monitoring
requirements, as
follows:
A)
If
the
supplier exceeds
the lead or copper action
level, the supplier must
implement corrosion control
treatment in accordance with
the deadlines specified

and
any other applicable requirements
of this Subpart G.
B)
If the supplier meets
both the lead and the copper
action
level,
the
supplier must monitor for lead and
copper at the tap no less frequently than
once every three years using the reduced
number of zampic sampling sites
specified in subsection
Cc)
of this
Section.
7)
Pre-existing waivers. Small system
supplier waivers approved
by
the
Agency in writing prior to April 11, 2000 must
remain in effect under the
following conditions:
A)
If the supplier has demonstrated that it is
both free of lead- containing

a)
General Requirements.
1)
Sample
collection
methods.
A)
Use of tap
samples.
The totality of all
tap
samples
collected by a
supplier must be
representative
of water quality throughout the distribution
system
taking
into account
the number of persons served, the different
sources
of water,
the
different treatment methods
employed by the supplier, and
seasonal
variability. Although a supplier may conveniently
conduct tap sampling for
water quality parameters at sites
used
for coliform
sampling performed pursuant
to Subpart L of this Part, it is not required
to do so, and a supplier is not
required
to
perform tap sampling pursuant
to this Section at taps targeted for
lead and copper sampling under Section
611.356(a)
B)
Use
of entry point samples. Each
supplier must collect samples at entry
points
to
the distribution system from
locations representative of each source
after treatment. If a supplier draws
water from more than one source and the
sources are combined before distribution,
the supplier must sample
at
an
entry
point
to
the distribution system during
periods of normal operating conditions
(i.e.,
when water is representative
of all sources being
used).
2)
Number of samples.
A)
Tap samples. Each supplier must collect two
tap samples for applicable
water quality parameters during each six-month
monitoring period specified under
subsections
(b)
through
(e)
of this Section from
the number of sites indicated
in the first column of Table E of this Part.
B)
Entry point samples.
i)
Initial
monitoring.
Except as provided in subsection
(c) (3)
of this
Section,
each supplier must
collect two samples for each applicable water
quality parameter
at
each entry
point to the distribution system during
each
six-month monitoring period
specified in subsection
(b)
of this Section.
ii)
Subsequent monitoring. Each
supplier must collect one sample for
each
applicable water quality parameter
at each entry point to the distribution
system during each six-month monitoring period
specified in subsections
(c)
through
(e)
of this Section.
b)
Initial Sampling.
1)
Large systems. Each large
system supplier must measure the applicable
water quality parameters specified in
subsection
(b) (3)
of this Section
at taps
and at
each entry point
to
the distribution
system during each six-month
monitoring period specified in Section
611.356(d) (1).

Small- and medium-sized systems. Each small-
and medium-sized system
supplier must measure the applicable water quality
parameters specified in
subsection
(b) (3)
of this Section at the locations specified
in this subsection
during each six-month monitoring period specified in Section
611.356(d) (1)
during
which the
supplier exceeds the lead action level or
the copper action
level.
3)
Water quality parameters.
A)
pH;
B)
Alkalinity;
C)
Orthophosphate, when an inhibitor
containing a phosphate compound
is used;
D)

a silicate compound is
used;
E)
Calcium;
F)
Conductivity; and
G)
Water temperature.
c)
Monitoring after installation of corrosion
control.
1)
Large systems. Each large system
supplier that installs optimal corrosion
control treatment pursuant to Section
611.351(d) (4)
must measure the
water
quality parameters at the locations and
frequencies specified in
subsections
(c) (4)
and
(c) (5)
of this Section during
each six-month monitoring period
specified in Section
611.356(d) (2) (A).
2)
Small- and medium-sized systems. Each small-
or medium-sized system that
installs
optimal corrosion control
treatment pursuant
to
Section
611.351(e) (5)
must
measure the water quality
parameters at the locations and
frequencies
specified in subsections
(c)
(4) and
(c) (5)
of this Section during
each six-month
monitoring period specified in
Section
611.356(d) (2) (B)
in which
the supplier
exceeds the
lead action level
or the copper action level.
3)
Any groundwater system can limit
entry point sampling described in
subsection
(c) (2)
of this Section
to those entry points that are
representative
of water quality and treatment conditions
throughout the system. If water
from
untreated groundwater sources mixes
with water from treated groundwater
sources,
the system must monitor for water
quality parameters both
at
representative
entry points receiving treatment
and representative entry points
receiving no
treatment. Prior
to
the
start of any monitoring under this
subsection, the
system must
provide
to the Agency written information identifying
the selected
entry
points and
documentation,
including information on
seasonal variability,
sufficient
to
demonstrate that
the sites are representative of water
quality and
treatment conditions throughout
the system.
4)
Tap water samples, two samples
at each tap for each of the following
water
quality parameters:
A)

carbonate stabilization is used
as
part of
corrosion
control.
5)
Entry point samples, except
as provided in subsection
(c) (3)
of this
Section, one sample at each
entry point to the distribution system every
two
weeks (bi-weekly) for each of the
following
water
quality parameters:
A)
pH;
B)
When alkalinity is adjusted
as part of optimal corrosion control,
a
reading of the
dosage
rate of the
chemical used to adjust alkalinity, and the
alkalinity concentration; and
C)

1)
A
supplier that fails
to meet the lead
action
level
or the copper
action
level on the
basis of tap samples
collected in
accordance
with Section
611.356
must collect lead
and copper
source
water samples
in
accordance
with
the
following
requirements
regarding
sample
location, number
of samples,
and
collection
methods:
A)
A groundwater
supplier
must take
a
minimum
of one sample
at
every entry
point
to
the distribution
system that is
representative
of each well
after
treatment
(hereafter
called
a sampling
point) . The supplier
must take
one
sample
at the same sampling
point
unless
conditions make
another sampling
point
more
representative
of each
source
or
treatment

be done
by certified
laboratory
personnel.
Composite
samples from a maximum
of five
samples are allowed,
provided
that if the
lead
concentration in
the
composite
sample is greater
than
or
equal
to 0.001
mg/l
or
the
copper concentration
is greater
than or equal
to
0.160
mg/l, then
the supplier must
do either of
the following:
i)
The supplier must
take and analyze
a follow-up
sample within
14 days at
each sampling
point included
in
the composite;
or
ii)
If duplicates
of or sufficient

the
same sampling point,
but
no later than
two weeks after
the supplier took
the
initial
sample.
B)
If a
supplier takes
an Agency-required
confirmation
sample for
lead
or
copper,
the
supplier must
average
the
results
obtained from
the
initial sample
with
the results
obtained
from the

tryptose
broth using the water normally tested and this
comparison
demonstrates that the false-positive
rate and false-negative rate for
total
coliforms, using lactose broth, is less
than 10 percent;
B)
If
inverted
tubes
are
used to detect gas production, the media should
cover these
tubes at

d)
This
subsection
corresponds
with 40 CFR
141.21(f)
(4),
which
USEPA has
marked
reserved.
This
statement
maintains structural
consistency
with the
federal
regulations.
e)
Suppliers
must conduct
fecal coliform
analysis
in accordance
with
the
following
procedure:
1)
When the
MTF
Technique or P-A
Coliform
Test
is
used
to test
for total
coliforms,
shake the
lactose-positive presumptive
tube or
P-A vigorously
and
transfer
the
growth
with
a sterile 3-mm loop
or
sterile applicator
stick
into
brilliant
green lactose
bile
broth and EC medium,
defined below,
to determine
the presence
of total
and fecal
coliforms, respectively.
2)
For
approved
methods that
use a membrane
filter, transfer
the total
coliform-positive
culture
by
one
of the following
methods:
remove the
membrane
containing
the total
coliform colonies
from the
substrate
with
sterile
forceps
and
carefully
curl
and
insert the membrane
into a
tube
of
EC
medium;
(the
laboratory
may
first remove
a small portion
of
selected colonies
for
verification);
swab
the
entire
membrane filter
surface with
a
sterile
cotton
swab and
transfer the
inoculum
to
EC medium
(do
not
leave the
cotton swab in
the
EC
medium);
or inoculate
individual
total coliform-positive
colonies
into EC
medium.
Gently
shake
the inoculated
tubes
of
EC
medium
to insure
adequate
mixing and
incubate
in
a
waterbath
at
44.5
±0.2°
C
for 24
±2
hours.
Gas
production
of any
amount in
the inner fermentation
tube of the
EC
medium
indicates a
positive
fecal
coliform
test.
3)
EC
medium
is described
in Standard
Methods,
18th
ed.,
19th
ed.,
and 20th
ed.: Method
9221
E.
4)
Suppliers need only
determine
the presence
or absence of fecal
coliforms;
a
determination
of fecal
coliform
density
is not required.
f)
Suppliers must
conduct analysis
of E.
coli in accordance
with one of
the
following
analytical
methods, incorporated
by
reference
in
Section
611.102:
1)
EC
medium supplemented
with
50
ag/l
of
MUG
(final
concentration).
EC
medium
is
as
described
in
subsection
(e)
of
this Section.
MUG
may be
added
to
EC medium before
autoclaving.
EC medium
supplemented
with
50 pg/l MUG is
commercially
available.
At least
10 ml
of
BC medium
supplemented
with MUG must
be
used. The
inner inverted
fermentation
tube
may be
omitted.
The procedure
for
transferring a
total
coliform-positive
culture
to
EC
medium
supplemented
with MUG
is as in
subsection
(e)
of this Section
for
transferring
a total
coliform-positive
culture
to
EC medium. Observe
fluorescence with
an
ultraviolet
light
(366 nm)
in the
dark after incubating
tube at 44.5
±2°
C for
24
±2
hours;
or
2)
Nutrient
agar supplemented
with 100
pg/l MUG
(final
concentration),
as
described in
Standard
Methods,
19th ed. and 20th
ed.:
Method 9222
G.
This
test
is used to
determine
if
a total
coliform-positive
sample, as determined
by the
MF
technique,
contains E.
coli.
Alternatively,
Standard
Methods, 18th
ed.:
Method
9221
B may be used if
the membrane
filter containing
a total coliform
positive
colony
or colonies
is transferred
to
nutrient agar,
as described
in
Method 9221
B (paragraph
3),
supplemented with
100 pg/l MUG .
If Method
9221 B
is used, incubate
the
agar
plate
at 35° Celsius
for
four hours, then
observe
the
colony or colonies
under
ultraviolet
light
(366-nm)
in the dark for
fluorescence.
If fluorescence
is visible,
E.
coli
are present.
3)
Minimal
Medium
GNPG-MUG
(MMO-MUG)
Test,
as set
forth in Appendix
U
of
this
Part.
(The
Autoanalysis
Colilert
System is
a
MMO-MUG
test.)
If the
MMO-MUG
test is total
coliform
positive after
a 24-hour incubation,
test the medium
for
fluorescence
with
a
366-nm
ultraviolet
light (preferably
with a six-watt
lamp)
in the dark.
If fluorescence
is observed,
the sample is E.
coli-positive.
If
fluorescence
is questionable
(cannot
be definitively
read)
after
24 hours
incubation,
incubate
the culture
for an additional
four hours
(but
not
to
exceed
28
hours
total),
and again
test
the
medium for fluorescence.
The MMO-MUG
test
with
hepes
buffer is the only
approved
formulation
for the
detection of E.
coli.
4)
The Colisure
Test (Autoanalysis
Colilert
System)
5)
The
membrane filter
method with MI
agar.
6)
The
E*ColitcSColite(r)
Test.
7)
The
m-ColiBlue24âfl
Test.
8)

Test.
g)
As an
option to
the method
set forth in subsection
(f) (3)
of
this Section,
a
supplier
with a total coliform-positive,
MUG-negative,
MMO-MUG test
may
further
analyze
the culture
for the
presence
of E. coli
by
transferring
a
0.1
ml,
28-hour MMO-MUG
culture to EC
medium
+
MUG with a
pipet. The
formulation
and
incubation
conditions
of the EC
medium +
MUG,
and
observation of
the
results,
are
described
in subsection
(f) (1)
of
this
Section.
h)
This
subsection
corresponds
with 40 CFR
141.21(f)
(8),

Section 611.612
Monitoring
Requirements for Old Inorganic MCLs
a)
Analyses for the purpose of
determining compliance with the old inorganic
MCLs of Section 611.300 are required
as follows:
1)
Analyses for all CWSs utilizing
surface water sources must be repeated
at
yearly intervals.
2)
Analyses for all CWSs utilizing only groundwater
sources must be repeated
at
three-year intervals.
3)
This subsection
(a) (3)
corresponds with 40 CFR 141.23(1)
(3),
which
requires monitoring for the repealed old MCL for nitrate
at a frequency
specified by the state. The Board has followed the USEPA lead and repealed
that
old MCL. This statement maintains structural consistency with USEPA rules.
4)
This subsection
(a) (4)
corresponds with 40 CFR
141.23(1) (4)
, which
authorizes the state to determine compliance and initiate enforcement action.
This statement
maintains
structural consistency with USEPA rules.
b)
If the
result
of an analysis made under subsection
(a)
of this Section
indicates that
the level
of any contaminant listed in Section 611.300 exceeds
the old
MCL, the
supplier must report to the Agency within seven days and
initiate
three additional
analyses at the same sampling point within one month.
c)
When
the
average
of four analyses made pursuant to subsection
(b)
of this
Section,
rounded
to
the same
number of
significant
figures as the old MCL for
the
substance in question, exceeds
the
old MCL,
the supplier must notify the
Agency
and give notice
to
the
public
pursuant
to Subpart V of this Part.
Monitoring after public notification must
be at a
frequency
designated by the
Agency by a SEP granted pursuant
to
Section 611.110 and must
continue until the
old MCL has not been exceeded in two successive samples or until
a
different
monitoring
schedule
becomes effective as a condition to a variance, an
adjusted
standard, a site
specific
rule, an enforcement action, or another SEP granted
pursuant to
Section 611.110.
d)
This subsection
Cd)
corresponds with 40 CFR
141.23(o),
which pertains
to
monitoring for the repealed old MCD for nitrate.
This statement maintains
structural consistency with USEPA rules.
e)
This subsection
Ce)
corresponds with 40 CFR 141.23(p), which pertains
to
the use
of existing data up until a date long since expired.
This statement
maintains structural consistency with USEPA rules.
f)
Except for
arsenic,
for which analyses must be made in accordance with
Section 611.611,
analyses conducted
to
determine
compliance with the old MCLs of
Section 611.300 must be
made
in
accordance
with the following methods,
incorporated by

Section 611.802
Groundwater
Source Microbial
Monitoring
and Analytical
Methods
a)
Triggered
source water monitoring.
1)
General requirements.
A GWS supplier
must conduct
triggered source
water
monitoring
if the
following
conditions exist:
A)
The
supplier
does
not
provide
at least 4-log
treatment of viruses
(using
inactivation,
removal, or
an Agency-approved
combination
of
4-log virus
inactivation
and removal)
before or at
the first customer
for each groundwater
source;
and
B)
The
supplier is
notified
that
a sample collected
pursuant to
Section
611.521
is
total coliform-positive,
and the sample is
not invalidated
by the
Agency
pursuant
to Section 611.523.
2)
Sampling
requirements.
A GWS
supplier must
collect,
within 24 hours
after
notification
of the total
coliform-positive
sample,
at least
one groundwater
source sample from each groundwater
source in use at the time
the total
coliform-positive sample was
collected pursuant to Section
611.521, except as
provided in subsection
(a)
(2)
(B)
of this Section.
A)
The Agency may, by
a SEP issued pursuant
to Section 611.110, extend the
24-hour time limit on a
case-by-case basis if it determines
that the supplier
cannot collect the groundwater
source water sample within
24 hours due to
circumstances beyond the
supplier’s control. In the
case of an extension, the
Agency must specify how much
time the supplier has
to collect the sample.
B)
If approved by the Agency,
a supplier with more than
one groundwater
source may meet the requirements of
this subsection
(a) (2)
by sampling a
representative groundwater source or sources.
If directed
by
the Agency
by a
SEP issued pursuant to Section 611.110, the
supplier must submit for Agency
approval
a triggered source water monitoring
plan that identifies one or
more
groundwater sources that are representative
of each monitoring site in
the
system’s sample siting plan pursuant
to Section 611.521 and that the
system
intends to use for representative sampling
pursuant to this
subsection
(a)
C)
A GWS supplier that serves 1,000 or
fewer people may
use a
repeat
sample
collected from a groundwater source
to
meet
both the requirements of
Section
611.522 and to satisfy the monitoring requirements
of subsection
(a)
(2)
of this
Section for that groundwater source only if
the Agency approves the
use of E.
ccli as a fecal indicator for source water
monitoring pursuant
to
this
subsection
(a)
by a SEP issued pursuant
to Section 611.110. If the repeat
sample collected from the groundwater
source is E.coli positive, the
system must
comply with subsection
(a) (3)
of this
Section.
3)
Additional requirements. If
the Agency does not require
corrective action
pursuant to Section 611.803
(a) (2)
for
a fecal indicator-positive
source water
sample collected pursuant to subsection
(a) (2)
of this Section that is
not
invalidated pursuant to subsection
(d)
of this
Section, the system must
collect
five
additional source water samples from the
same source within 24 hours
after
being notified of the
fecal indicator-positive sample.
4)
Consecutive and wholesale
systems.
A)
In addition to the other requirements
of this subsection
(a),
a
consecutive GWS supplier that has
a total coliform-positive sample
collected
pursuant to Section 611.521 must notify
the wholesale systems within
24 hours
after being notified of the total
coliform-positive sample.
B)
In addition to the other requirements
of this
subsection
(a),
a wholesale
GWS supplier must comply with the
following requirements:
i)
A wholesale GWS supplier
that receives notice from
a consecutive system it
serves that a sample collected pursuant
to Scction Section 611.521
is total
coliform-positive must, within 24 hours
after being notified,
collect a sample
from its groundwater sources pursuant
to subsection
(a)
(2) of
this Section and
analyze it for a fecal indicator pursuant
to subsection
(c)
of
this Section.
ii)
If the sample
collected pursuant
to subsection
(a) (4) (B) (i)
of this
section is fecal indicator-positive,
the wholesale
GWS supplier must notify
all
consecutive systems served
by that groundwater source
of the fecal indicator
source water positive within
24 hours of being notified
of the groundwater
source sample monitoring result
and must meet the requirements
of subsection
(a) (3)
of this Section.
5)
Exceptions to the triggered source
water monitoring requirements.
A GWS
supplier is not required
to
comply with
the source water
monitoring requirements
of subsection
(a)
of this Section if either
of the following conditions
exists:
A)
The Agency determines, and documents in writing,
by a SEP issued pursuant
to Section 611.110,
that
the total coliform-positive
sample collected pursuant
to Section 611.521 is caused by a distribution
system deficiency; or
B)
The total coliform-positive sample collected
pursuant to Section 611.521
is
collected at a location that meets Agency
criteria for distribution
system
conditions that will cause total coliform-positive
samples.
b)
Assessment source water monitoring.
If directed
by
the Agency
by a SEP
issued pursuant to Section 611.110,
a
GWS
supplier must conduct assessment
source water monitoring that meets Agency-determined
requirements for
such
monitoring. A GWS supplier conducting
assessment source water monitoring
may
use a triggered source water sample
collected pursuant
to
subsection
(a) (2)
of

source samples
at a
location
prior to any
treatment of the groundwater
source unless the Agency
approves a sampling
location after treatment;
and
6)
Collection of groundwater
source samples at the well itself,
unless the
system’s configuration
does
not
allow for sampling
at
the well
itself and the
Agency approves an alternate sampling
location by
a
SEP issued
pursuant to
Section 611.110 that is representative
of the water quality
of that well.
c)

d)
Invalidation of a fecal indicator-positive
groundwater source sample.
1)
A GWS supplier may obtain Agency invalidation
of a fecal indicator-
positive groundwater source sample collected
pursuant to subsection
(a)
of
this
Section only under either of the following
conditions:
A)
The supplier provides the Agency with written
notice from the laboratory
that improper sample analysis occurred; or
B)
The Agency determines and documents in writing
by a SEP issued pursuant
to
Section 611.110 that there is substantial evidence
that a fecal indicator-
positive
groundwater source sample is not related
to source water quality.
2)
If the Agency invalidates
a fecal indicator-positive
groundwater source
sample, the GWS supplier must
collect another source water
sample pursuant to
subsection
(a)
of this Section within
24 hours after being notified
by the
Agency of its invalidation decision,
and the supplier must have it
analyzed for
the same fecal indicator using the analytical
methods in subsection
(c)
of this
Section. The Agency may extend the 24-hour
time limit on a case-by-case
basis
if the supplier cannot collect the source water
sample within 24 hours
due to
circumstances beyond its control. In the
case of an extension, the Agency
must
specify how much time the system has
to collect the sample.
e)
Sampling location.
1)
Any groundwater source sample required
pursuant to subsection
(a)
of this
Section must be collected
at a
location prior
to any treatment of the
groundwater source unless the Agency approves
a sampling location after
treatment.
2)
If the
supplierTs
system configuration
does not allow for sampling
at the
well itself,
it may collect a sample
at
an Agency-approved
location
to
meet
the

of subsection
(a)
of this Section if
the sample is representative
of
the water
quality of that well.
f)
New sources. If
directed by the Agency
by a
SEP issued
pursuant to
Section 611.110,
a
GWS
supplier that places a new groundwater
source into
service after November
30, 2009 must conduct assessment source
water monitoring
pursuant to subsection
(b)
of this Section. If directed
by the SEP, the system
must begin monitoring before the
groundwater source is
used to provide water to
the
public.
g)
Public
Notification. A
GWS
supplier
with
a
groundwater
source sample
collected
pursuant
to subsection
(a)
or
(b)
of this Section
that is fecal
indicator-positive
and which is not
invalidated
pursuant to subsection
(d)
of
this Section,
including
a consecutive
system supplier
served
by the
groundwater
source, must
conduct public
notification
pursuant to
Section
611.902.
h)
Monitoring
Violations.
A failure to
meet the requirements
of subsections
(a)
through
(f) of
this

evaluation
(IDSE)
to
determine
the locations
in its
distribution system
that are
representative
of
high TTHM
and HAAS
concentrations throughout
the supplier’s
distribution
system.
An
IDSE
is
used in
conjunction with,
but
separate from,
Subpart
I compliance
monitoring,
to identify
and select Subpart
Y compliance
monitoring
locations.

data where there are time
gaps
in the
sampling frequency
if the
supplier conducts additional monitoring that
the
Agency has
specified
by a SEP issued pursuant
to
Section 611.110
to
ensure that
the data used to
comply
with the initial source water monitoring requirements
of
Section
611.1001(a)
are
seasonally representative and unbiased.
2)
A supplier may grandfather previously collected
data
where the sampling
frequency within each month varied. If the Cryptosporidium sampling frequency
varied, the supplier must follow the monthly averaging procedure in
Section
611.1010(b) (5)
or Section
611.1012(a) (3),
as
applicable, when calculating
the

Reporting
monitoring
results for grandfathering. A supplier that requests
to grandfather
previously
collected monitoring results must report the following
information by the applicable dates listed in this subsection. A supplier must
report this
information
to the Agency.
1)
A supplier
must
report that it intends to submit previously collected
monitoring
results for grandfathering.
This report must specify the number of
previously
collected results the
supplier will submit, the dates of the first
and last
sample, and whether
a supplier will conduct additional source water
monitoring to meet

the
applicable date listed in Section
611.1001(c)
A)
For each sample result, a supplier must report the applicable
data
elements in Section 611.1006.
B)
A supplier must certify that the reported
monitoring results include all
results that it generated during the time period beginning
with the first
reported result and ending with the final reported result. This applies
to
samples that were collected from the sampling location specified for source
water monitoring pursuant to this Subpart Z, which were not spiked, and which
were analyzed using the
laboratoryTs
routine process for the analytical methods
listed in this Section.
C)
The supplier must certify that the samples were representative of
a
plants source waters and the source waters have not changed. It must report
a
description of the sampling locations, which must address the position of
the
sampling location in relation to its water sources and treatment processes,
including points of chemical addition and filter backwash recycle.
ID)
For Cryptosporidium samples, the laboratory or laboratories that analyzed
the samples must provide a letter certifying that the quality control criteria
specified in the methods listed in subsection

of this Section
were met
for each sample batch associated with the reported results. Alternatively,
the
laboratory
may
provide
bench sheets and sample examination report forms for
each
field, matrix spike, initial precision
and recovery, ongoing precision and
recovery, and method blank sample
associated with the reported results.
g)
If the Agency determines that
a
previously
collected data set submitted
for grandfathering
was
generated during source water
conditions that were not
normal
for the
supplier,
such as
a
drought,
the
Agency
may, by a
SEP issued
pursuant
