* PCAs associated with (but not necessarily limited to) microbiological contamination FILE:DRY/C:\JOBS\SWAPLAN\TABLE5-2.DOC
The potential for contamination is based on the nature of the activities, contaminants associated with those activities, and past record of groundwater and/or surface water contamination regardless of whether any environmental standards were exceeded. The potential for contamination does not reflect toxicity of the contaminant and should not be utilized as a means of assessing risk. These rankings do not take into account any site-specific practices such as pollution prevention or protection measures such as best management practices (BMPs). PCAs utilizing BMPs that may mitigate potential contamination will be acknowledged in the assessment summary.

TYPES OF PUBLIC WATER SYSTEMS
A public water system has 15 or more service connections or regularly serves at least 25 people 60 or more days a year. A system that serves water 60 or more days a year is considered to “regularly serve” water. Public water systems can be publicly or privately owned. Public water systems can be subdivided by regulations into two major categories: community and non-community water systems. This division is based on the type of consumer served and the frequency the consumer uses the water. Basically, a community system serves water to a residential population, whereas a non-community system served water to a non-residential population. The non-community category is further broken down into two categories: non-transient non-community water systems and transient non-community water systems.
1
Community Water System
15 SERVICECONNECTIONS
OR
25 PERSONS
FOR
YEAR-ROUND (365 days)
HOMES APARTMENT’ MULTI-FAMILY CONDOMINIUMS HOUSING COMPLEX
A public water system that pipes water for human consumption to at least 15 service connections used by year-round residents, or one that regularly serves at least 25 year-round residents (e.g., municipality, subdivision, mobile home park).
Community Water SystemsMunicipal systems and public water utiitiesMobile home parksCondominiumResidential institutions and schools (including hospitals, nursing homes, colleges, homes for the aged, …)Housing developments (public and proivate)Multi-family housing complexes

CHURCHES SCHOOL GAS STATION/ STORE/REST STOP
A public water system that pipes water for human consumption to at least 15 service connections used by individuals other than year-round residents for at least 60 days a year (e.g., school, factories, rest stops)
NON-TRANSIENT NON-COMMUNITY WATER SYSTEM:A non-community water system that serves at least 25 of the same persons over six months per year (e.g., schools, factories, industrial parks, office buildings).
TRANSIENT NON-COMMUNITY WATER SYSTEM:A non-community water system that does not meet the definition of a non-transient non-community water system (e.g., highway rest stops, restaurants, motels, golf courses, parks).

STANDARDIZED MONITORING FRAMEWORK
1Until January 22, 2006 the maximum contaminant level (MCL) for arsenic is 50 µg/L; on January 23, 2006 the MCL for arsenic becomes 10 µg/L.2Based on 3 rounds of monitoring at each EPTDS with all analytical results below the MCL. Waivers are not permitted under the current arsenicrequirements, however systems are eligible for arsenic waivers after January 23, 2006.3A system with a sampling point result above the MCL must collect quarterly samples, at that sampling point, until the system is determined by theprimacy agency to be reliably and consistently below the MCL.4Samples must be taken during the quarter which previously resulted in the highest analytical result. Systems can apply for a waiver after 3consecutive annual sampling results are below the detection limit.5Groundwater systems must update their vulnerability assessments during the time the waiver is effective. Primacy agencies must re-confirm thatthe system is non-vulnerable within 3 years of the initial determination or the system must return to annual sampling.6If all monitoring results during initial quarterly monitoring are less than the detection limit, the system can take annual samples. If after a minimumof 3 years of annual sampling with all analytical results less than the detection limit, the primacy agency can allow a system to take 1 sampleduring each compliance period. Systems are also eligible for a waiver.7Primacy agencies must determine that a surface water system is non-vulnerable based on a vulnerability assessment during each complianceperiod or the system must return to annual sampling.8If all monitoring results during initial quarterly monitoring are less than the detection limit, the system can take annual samples. Systems are alsoeligible for a waiver.9Samples must be taken during the quarter which previously resulted in the highest analytical result.10Systems are required to monitor for asbestos during the first 3-year compliance period of each 9-year compliance cycle. A system vulnerable toasbestos contamination due solely to corrosion of asbestos-cement pipe must take 1 sample at a tap served by that pipe. A system vulnerable toasbestos contamination at the source must sample at each EPTDS.

►
Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule (Stage 1 DBPR) 63 FR 69390, December 16, 1998, Vol. 63, No. 241Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule (Stage 2 DBPR) 71 FR 388, January 4, 2006, Vol. 71, No. 2
Purpose Improve public health protection by reducing exposure to disinfection byproducts. Some disinfectants and disinfection byproducts (DBPs) have been shown to cause cancer and reproductive effects in lab animals and suggested bladder cancer and reproductive effects in humans.
General Description
The DBPRs require public water systems (PWSs) to: ► Comply with established maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) and operational evaluation
levels (OELs) for DBPs, and maximum residual disinfection levels (MRDLs) for disinfectant residuals.
► Conduct an initial evaluation of their distribution system. Inaddition,PWSsusingconventionalfiltrationarerequiredtoremovespecificpercentagesoforganic material that may react to form DBPs through the implementation of a treatment technique.
Utilities Covered
The DBPRs apply to all sizes of community water systems (CWSs) and nontransient noncommunity water systems (NTNCWSs) that add a disinfectant other than ultraviolet (UV) light or deliver disinfected water, and transient noncommunity water systems (TNCWSs) that add chlorine dioxide.
*This document provides a summary of federal drinking water requirements; to ensure full compliance, please consult the federal regulations at 40 CFR 141 and any approved state requirements.
1. A new analytical method for bromate was approved with the Stage 2 DBPR.
Overview of RequirementsThis table shows how the requirements for the Stage 2 DBPR build on the existing requirements established in the Stage 1 DBPR. For more information on changes in monitoring requirements, see Table 1.

1All systems must monitor during the month of highest DBP concentrations. Systems on quarterly monitoring, except Subpart H systems serving 500 - 3,300, must take dual sample sets every 90 days at each monitoring location. Systems on annual monitoring and Subpart H systems serving 500 - 3,300 are required to take individual TTHM and HAA5 samples (instead of a dual sample set) at the locations with the highest TTHM and HAA5 concentrations, respectively. If monitoring annually, only one location with a dual sample set per monitoring period is needed if the highest TTHM and HAA5 concentrations occur at the same location and in the same month.2Ground water systems serving < 10,000 and Subpart H systems serving < 500 must increase monitoring to quarterly if an MCL is exceeded.3A new analytical method for bromate was established with the Stage 2 DBPR.4Stage 2 DBPR did not revise the monitoring frequency or location requirements for this contaminant/disinfectant.

Table 5. Operational Evaluation Levels (OELs)Applies to: All systems subject to Stage 2 DBPR monitoring requirements that conduct compliance
monitoring and collect samples quarterly.Purpose of establishing OELs: To reduce peaks in DBP levels and exposure to high DBP levels.
OEL calculations: Calculated for both TTHMs and HAA5s at each monitoring location using Stage 2 ►DBPR compliance monitoring results. OEL is determined by the sum of the two previous quarter’s TTHM or HAA5 result ►
►plus twice the current quarter’s TTHM or HAA5 result at that location, divided by four. OEL = (Q1 + Q2 + 2Q3) / 4
OELs are exceeded: During any quarter in which the OEL is greater than the TTHM or HAA5 MCL.If an OEL is exceeded, a system must:
Conduct an operational evaluation.►►
►
Submit a written report of the evaluation to the state no later than 90 days after being notifiedoftheanalyticalresultsthatcausedtheexceedance(s).Keep a copy of the operational evaluation report and make it publically available upon request.
The operational evaluation must include:
An examination of the treatment and distribution systems’ operational practices that ►may contribute to TTHM and HAA5 formation.Steps to minimize future exceedances.►
OEL requirements take effect: When the system begins compliance monitoring for the Stage 2 DBPR.

Overview of the RuleTitle1 Lead and Copper Rule (LCR)2, 56 FR 26460 - 26564, June 7, 1991
Purpose Protect public health by minimizing lead (Pb) and copper (Cu) levels in drinking water, primarily by reducing water corrosivity. Pb and Cu enter drinking water mainly from corrosion of Pb and Cu containing plumbing materials.
General Description
Establishes action level (AL) of 0.015 mg/L for Pb and 1.3 mg/L for Cu based on 90th percentile level of tap water samples. An AL exceedance is not a violation but can trigger other requirements that include water quality parameter (WQP) monitoring, corrosion control treatment (CCT), source water monitoring/treatment, public education, and lead service line replacement (LSLR).
Utilities Covered
All community water systems (CWSs) and non-transient non-community water systems (NTNCWSs) are subject to the LCR requirements.

≤ 100 5 5 1 13 With written State approval, PWSs can collect < 5 samples if all taps used for human consumption are sampled.4 Two WQP tap samples are collected at each sampling site.
Table 2: Criteria for Reduced Pb/Cu Tap Monitoring
Annual PWS serves ≤ 50,000 people and is ≤ both ALs for 2 consecutive 6-month monitoring periods; or1. Any PWS that meets optimal WQPs (OWQPs) and is ≤ Pb AL for 2 consecutive 6-month monitoring 2. periods.
Triennial PWS serves ≤ 50,000 people and is ≤ both ALs for 3 consecutive years of monitoring; or1. Any PWS that meets OWQP specifications and is ≤ Pb AL for 3 consecutive years of monitoring; or2. Any PWS with 903. th percentile Pb and Cu levels ≤ 0.005 mg/L and ≤ 0.65 mg/L, respectively, for 2 consecutive 6-month monitoring periods (i.e., accelerated reduced Pb/Cu tap monitoring).
Every 9 years PWS serves ≤ 3,300 people and meets monitoring waiver criteria found at 40 CFR 141.86(g).
Lead Consumer NoticeWithin 30 days of learning the results, all systems must provide individual Pb tap results to people who receive water from sites that were sampled, regardless of whether the results exceed the Pb AL, as required by 40 CFR 141.85(d).
Consumer Confidence Report (CCR)All CWSs, irrespective of their lead levels, must provide an educational statement about lead in drinking water in their CCRs as required by 40 CFR 141.154. Must be in 2008 CCR (due July 1, 2009) if EPA is Primacy Agency, State adopts the rule by reference automatically, or adopts during 2008. Otherwise, this statement is required in the 2009 CCR (due July 1, 2010).

Treatment Technique and Sampling Requirements if the AL is Exceeded5
5 Based on 90th percentile level. Multiply number of valid samples by 0.9 (e.g., 10 samples x 0.9 = 9; thus, use 9th highest Pb and Cu test result to compare to AL). For 5 samples, average 4th and 5th highest results. For < 5 samples, use highest result.
Water Quality Parameter (WQP)Applicability Refer to page 1.Parameters ► pH, alkalinity, calcium (initial only, unless calcium carbonate stabilization is used), conductivity (initial
monitoring only), orthophosphate (if inhibitor is phosphate-based); silica (if inhibitor is silicate-based), and temperature (initial monitoring only).
Frequency ► Systems installing CCT, must conduct follow-up monitoring for 2 consecutive 6-month periods. ► WQP tap monitoring is conducted every 6 months, EPTDS monitoring increases to every 2 weeks. ► After follow-up monitoring, State sets OWQP specifications that define optimal CCT.
Reduced Tap Monitoring
► Collect reduced number of sampling sites (see Table 1) if meet OWQPs for 2 consecutive 6-month periods.
► Collect reduced number of sampling sites at reduced frequency if meet OWQPs for: - 6 consecutive 6-month monitoring periods can monitor annually; - 3 consecutive years of annual monitoring can monitor triennially.
Public Education (PE)Applicability ► Systems that exceed the Pb AL (not required if only the Cu AL is exceeded). Purpose ► Educates consumers about lead health effects, sources, and steps to minimize exposure. Delivery Method ► CWSs: deliver materials to bill-paying customers and post lead information on water bills, work in
concert with local health agencies to reach at-risk populations (children, pregnant woman), deliver to other organizations serving “at-risk” populations, provide press releases, include new outreach activities from list in 40 CFR 141.85(a)(2)(vi), and post to Web site (CWSs serving > 100,000 only).
► NTNCWSs: posting and distribution to all consumers (can be electronic with State permission). Can apply to CWSs such as hospitals and prisons where population cannot make improvements.
Timing ► Within 60 days after end of monitoring period in which Pb AL was exceeded if not already delivering PE.6
► Repeat annually except: water bill inserts - quarterly; press releases - 2x/year, and Web posting - continuous.
► Can discontinue whenever ≤ Pb AL but must recommence if subsequently exceed Pb AL.6State may allow extension in some situations. Also, State may require approval of message content prior to delivery.
Source Water Monitoring and Source Water Treatment (SOWT)Applicability ► Systems that exceed Pb or Cu AL. Purpose ► Determine contribution from source water to total tap water Pb and Cu levels and need for SOWT. Timing ► One set of samples at each EPTDS is due within 6 months of first AL exceedance.
► System has 24 months to install any required SOWT. ► State sets maximum permissible levels (MPLs) for Pb and Cu in source water based on initial and
follow-up source water monitoring.Standard ► Ground water PWSs monitor once during 3-year compliance periods; surface water PWSs monitor
annually.Reduced ► Monitor every 9 years if MPLs are not exceeded during 3 consecutive compliance periods for ground
water PWSs or 3 consecutive years for surface water PWSs.
Corrosion Control Treatment (CCT)Applicability ► All large systems except those meeting requirements of 40 CFR 141.81(b)(2) or (b)(3).
► Medium and small systems that exceed either AL; may stop CCT steps if ≤ both ALs for 2 consecutive 6-month periods but must recommence CCT if subsequently exceed either AL.
Study ► All large systems except as noted above. ► If State requires study for small or medium systems, it must be completed within 18 months.
Treatment ► Once State determines type of CCT to be installed, PWS has 24 months to install. ► Systems installing CCT must conduct 2 consecutive 6 months of follow-up tap and WQP monitoring.
OWQPs ► After follow-up Pb/Cu tap and WQP monitoring, State sets OWQPs. Refer to WQP section above.
Lead Service Line Replacement (LSLR)Applicability ► Systems that continue to exceed the Pb AL after installing CCT and/or SOWT.
► Can discontinue LSLR whenever ≤ Pb AL in tap samples for 2 consecutive 6-month monitoring periods; must recommence if subsequently exceed.
Monitoring ► Optional: Sample from LSL to determine if line must be replaced. If all samples are ≤ 0.015 mg/L, line is considered “replaced through testing”; must reconsider these lines if Pb AL is subsequently exceeded.
► Required: Sample from any LSLs not completely replaced to determine impact on Pb levels.Replacement ► Must replace at least 7% of LSLs annually; State can require accelerated schedule.
► If only portion of LSL is replaced, PWS must: - Notify customers at least 45 days prior to replacement about potential for increased Pb levels. - Collect samples within 72 hours of replacement and provide results within 3 days of receipt.

NOTES
1 Polyethylene (P) or Polypropylene or other autoclavable plastic (Pa) or Glass (G).
2 Sample preservation should be performed immediately upon sample collection. For compositechemical samples each aliquot should be preserved at the time of collection. When use of anautomated sampler makes it impossible to preserve each aliquot, then chemical samples may bepreserved by maintaining at 4°C until compositing and sample splitting is completed.
3 When any sample is to be shipped by common carrier or sent through the United States Mails, itmust comply with Department of Transportation Hazardous Materials Regulations (49 CFR Part172). The person offering such material for transportation is responsible for ensuring suchcompliance. For the preservation requirements of the above table, the Office of HazardousMaterials, Materials Transportation Bureau, Department of Transportation has determined that theHazardous Materials Regulations generally do not apply to the following materials: Hydrochloricacid (HCl) in water solutions at concentrations of 0.04% by weight or less (pH about 1.96 orgreater); Nitric acid (HNO3) in water solutions at concentrations of 0.15% by weight or less (pHabout 1.62 or greater); Sulfuric acid (H2SO4) in water solutions at concentrations of 0.35% byweight or less (pH about 1.15 or greater); and Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) in water solutions atconcentrations of 0.080% by weight or less (pH about 12.30 or less).
4 Samples should be analyzed as soon as possible after collection. The times listed are themaximum times that samples may be held before analysis and still be considered valid. Samples may be held for longer periods only if the laboratory has data on file to show that thespecific types of samples under study are stable for the longer time, and has received a variancefrom the Regional Administrator under Section 136.3(e). Some samples may not be stable for themaximum time period given in the table. The monitoring laboratory should hold the sample for ashorter time if knowledge exists to show that this is necessary to maintain sample stability.
4a Preservation: Current Manual for the Certification of Laboratories Analyzing Drinking WaterEPA/570/9-90/008 states: "Holding/travel time between sampling and analysis is not to exceed 30hours. If the laboratory is required by State regulation to analyze samples after 30 hours and upto 48 hours, the laboratory is to indicate that the data may be invalid because if excessive delaybefore sample processing. No samples received after 48 hours are to be analyzed forcompliance. All samples received in the laboratory are to be analyzed on the day of receipt." State requirements (Hawaii Administrative Rules Title 11 Chapter 115, Potable WaterLaboratories Exhibit A, Environmental Microbiology Reference Guide) will state: "Holding/traveltime between sampling and analysis is not to exceed six hours for those samples delivereddirectly to the laboratory by the sampler and is not to exceed 30 hours for those samples whichare shipped via mail or public transportation. Samples received after 30 hours are not analyzedfor compliance purposes. All samples received in the laboratory are to be analyzed within twohours of receipt."
5 Should be used in the presence or potential presence of residual chlorine.
6 Guidance applies to samples to be analyzed by GC, LC, or GC/MS for specific compounds.

7 When the extractable analytes of concern fall within a single chemical category, the specificpreservative and maximum holding times should be observed for optimum safeguard of sampleintegrity. When the analytes of concerns fall within two or more chemical categories, the samplemay be preserved by cooling to 4°C, reducing residual chlorine with 0.008% sodium thiosulfate(Na2S2O3), storing in the dark, and adjusting the pH; samples preserved in this matter may be heldfor seven days before extraction and for forty days after extraction.

APPROVED METHODS FOR DRINKING WATER ANALYSIS
APPROVED METHODS FOR MICROBIOLOGICAL (COLIFORM) SAMPLING To comply with the provisions of the Total Coliform Rule, public water systems must conduct analyses in accordance with one of the analytical methods in the following table. Total coliform methods, except for the Colisure Test, are contained in the 18th edition of Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater, 1992, American Public Health Association, 1015 Fifteenth Street NW, Washington, D.C. 20005. Preparation of the EC medium and the nutrient agar are described in Standard Methods, p. 9-52, para. la, and pp. 9-47 to 9-48, respectively. A description of the Colisure Test may be obtained form the Millipore Corporation, Technical Services Department, 80 Ashby Road, Bedford, MA 01730. The phone number is (800)645-5746.

Footnotes 1The time from sample collection to initiation of analysis may not exceed 30 hours. 2Lactose broth, as commercially available, may be used in lieu of lauryl tryptose broth, if the system conducts at least 25 parallel tests between this medium and lauryl tryptose broth using the water normally tested, and this comparison demonstrates that the false-positive rate for total coliforms, using lactose broth, is less than 10 percent. 3If inverted tubes are use to detect gas production, the media should cover these tubes at least one-half to two-thirds after the sample is added. 4No requirement exists to run the completed phase on 10 percent of all total coliform-positive confirmed tubes. 5Six-times formulation strength may be used if the medium is filter-sterilized rather than autoclaved. 6The ONPG-MUG Test is also known as the Autoanalysis Colilert System. 7The Colisure Test must be incubated for 28 hours before examining the results. If examination at 28 hours is not convenient, the results may be examined at any time between 28 hours and 48 hours. 8A description of the Colisure Test, Feb 28, 1994, may be obtained from IDEXX Laboratories, Inc., One IDEXX Drive, Westbrook, Maine 04092. The Colisure Test may be read after an incubation time of 24 hours.

OBTAINING SAMPLING MATERIALS:
The SDWB will automatically send water purveyors enough sampling supplies (coolers, blue ice, bottles, labels, sample preservatives, …) after water systems have scheduled their sampling.
Should you need additional sampling supplies, due to use of your supply for special sampling or repeat samples due to a detected positive result, please contact the SDWB – Monitoring Section.
You must have a courier account (such as FedEx), which the SDWB will charge for shipping.
SAMPLECOLLECTION
andDOCUMENTATION
CARBAMATE SAMPLING This sample uses a clear vial with no lettering on the cap and a small amount of liquid acid preservative (PLEASE DO NOT USE A CLEAR SAMPLING VIAL WITH "6N SOC HCL" LETTERING ON THE CAP). The clear vial with no lettering on the cap contains a liquid acid preservative, so be careful not to spill it on yourself.
Fill the clear vial to 3/4 full with your water sample.
Add a half a scoop of the sodium thiosulfate to each of the ¾ full vials using the small plastic scooper.
Fill the rest of the vial to the rim (FORMING A MENISCUS) with your water sample.
Place the cap on the vial being sure that the septa is teflon-side down (towards the sample). Avoid trapping air bubbles within the vial.
Check vial to ensure that there are no air bubbles trapped in the vial.
CARBAMATESCARBAMATES
EDB/DBCP/TCP SAMPLING This sample uses TWO clear vials.
Add a half a scoop of the sodium thiosulfate to each of the vials using the small plastic scooper.
Fill both of the clear vials to the rim (forming a meniscus) with your water sample.
Place the caps on both vials being sure that the septa is teflon-lined side down (towards the sample). Avoid trapping air bubbles within the vials.
Check to ensure that there are no air bubbles trapped in the vials.
EDB/DBCP/TCPEDB/DBCP/TCP
GLYPHOSATE SAMPLING
This sample uses ONE amber vial.
Add one small grain of the sodium thiosulfate to the vial using the small plastic scooper.
Fill the amber vial to the rim (forming a meniscus) with your water sample.
Place the caps on the vial being sure that the septa is teflon-lined sidedown (towards the sample). Avoid trapping air bubbles within the vials.
Check vial to ensure that there are no air bubbles trapped in thevial
GLYPHOSATEGLYPHOSATE
HERBICIDE (CHLORINATED ACIDS) SAMPLING
This sample uses TWO amber vials, the vials should have stickers attached to the cap saying “HERB”. Sodium thiosulfate has been pre-added to the vials by the laboratory.
Fill both of the clear vials to the rim (forming a meniscus) with your water sample.
Place the caps on both vials being sure that the septa is teflon-lined side down (towards the sample). Avoid trapping air bubbles within the vials.
Check vials to ensure that there are no air bubbles trapped in thevials.
Try to make sure the "HERB" stickers stay attached to the vial caps.
CHLORINATED ACIDS(HERBICIDES)
INORGANIC METALS SAMPLING
This sample uses one 500ml plastic bottle. The bottle may look like one of the bottles shown at the right. No preservative is added to the sample.
Fill the plastic bottle to the rim with your water sample.
Place the cap on the bottle.
INORGANICS(METALS)
INORGANIC (ANIONS - NITRATE) SAMPLING
This sample uses a 125ml plastic bottle. No preservative is added to the sample.
Rinse out the plastic bottle and the cap 3 times with the water you are sampling.
Fill the plastic bottle to the rim with your water sample.
Place the cap on the bottle.
INORGANICS(ANIONS)
SYNTHETIC ORGANIC CHEMICALS (SOC8) SAMPLING This sample uses an amber liter bottle and a clear vial with "6N SOC HCL" on the cap (PLEASE DO NOT USE A CLEAR VIAL WITH NO LETTERING ON THE CAP). Sodium Sulfite has been pre-added to the amber liter bottle. The vial with "6N SOC HCL" lettering on the cap contains a liquid acid preservative, so be careful not to spill it on yourself.
Fill the amber liter bottle to 3/4 full with your water sample, cap and mix the sodium sulfite with your sample.
Pour the contents of the vial with "6N SOC HCL" lettering on the cap into the amber liter bottle.
Fill the rest of the amber liter bottle to the rim with your water sample. Place the cap on the amber liter bottle.
Rinse out the vial that you poured into the amber liter bottle and return with your sample.
SYNTHETIC ORGANICS(SOC)
VOLATILE ORGANIC CHEMICALS (VOC) SAMPLING This sample uses TWO amber vials with a VOC label on the caps. These 2 vials already contain a powder acid preservative so be careful not to spill it on yourself. This sample also uses another type of acid in a small squeeze bottle labeled “1:1 HCL”. DO NOT ADD THIS “1:1 HCL” ACID TO THE 2 VIALS UNTIL YOU HAVE READ THE NEXT STEP BELOW. ADDING IT NOW WILL INVALIDATE YOUR SAMPLES.
Fill both of the amber vials with your water sample until the water is close to the rim of the vials. Use the “1:1 HCL” squeeze bottle to add 2 drops of the acid (be careful not to spill it on yourself) to each of the amber vials.
Carefully fill the rest of the amber vials to the rim with your water sample forming a meniscus at to the top.
Place the caps on the vials being sure that the septa is teflon-lined side down (towards the sample). Avoid trapping air bubbles within the vials. Try to make sure that the VOC labels stay attached to the vial caps.
Check to ensure that there are no air bubbles trapped in the vials.
VOC
TRIHALOMETHANES (THM) SAMPLING This sample uses TWO amber vials.
Add a half a scoop of the sodium thiosulfate to each of the vials using the small plastic scooper.
Fill both of the amber vials to the rim (forming a meniscus) with your water sample.
Place the caps on the vials being sure that the septa is teflon-lined side down (towards the sample). Avoid trapping air bubbles within the vials.
Check to ensure that there are no air bubbles trapped in the vials.
THMsTHMs
HALOACETIC ACID (HAA) SAMPLING This sample uses TWO amber vials, the vials should have stickers attached to the cap saying “HAA”. Sodium thiosulfate has been pre-added to the vials by the laboratory.
Fill both of the amber vials to the rim (forming a meniscus) with your water sample.
Place the caps on both vials being sure that the septa is teflon-lined side down (towards the sample). Avoid trapping air bubbles within the vials.
Check to ensure that there are no air bubbles trapped in the vials.
Try to make sure the "HAA" stickers stay attached to the vial caps.

ASK COURIER/SHIPPER WHEN SAMPLES WILL BE PICKED UP OR WHEN SAMPLES MUST BE DROPPED OFF. This will assist you in determining when you need to collect your sample, and when to pack your samples for shipping (you do not want to pack the samples too early).
SAMPLES NEED TO BE DELIVERED TO THE DOH LABORATORY BEFORE 4:00pm THE NEXT/FOLLOWING DAY. Please be aware of the sample temperature and the holding time requirements. Lab procedures that they check the temperature inside the cooler and that the temperature is within the acceptable range or 2 to 6 degrees Celsius. Samples may be rejected by the Lab if it is not within the temperature range or the sample exceeds the holding time.
2
BE SURE TO FREEZE YOUR BLUE ICE AS SOON AS YOU RECEIVE YOUR SAMPLING SUPPLIES OR AT LEAST 72 HOURS PRIOR TO SAMPLING. PARTITIALLY FROZEN BLUE ICE WILL BE INSUFFICIENT TO COOL THE SAMPLES TO THE REQUIRED TEMPERATURE.
WHEN PACKING THE SAMPLES, BE SURE THAT THE BLUE ICE IS COMPLETELY FROZEN TO ENSURE THAT IT WILL BE COLD ENOUGH TO KEEP THE SAMPLE AT THE REQUIRED TEMPERATURE WHEN IT REACHES THE LABORATORY.
SAMPLES THAT ARE NOT WITHIN THE REQUIRED TEMPERATURE RANGE WILL BE REJECTED BY THE LABORATORY REQUIRING THAT YOU RESAMPLE.
3
AVOID PLACING THE BLUE ICE ON THE BOTTOM OF THE COOLER AND SETTING YOUR SAMPLES ON TOP OF THE BLUE ICE. THE DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE BLUE ICE MAY CAUSE THE SAMPLE TO FREEZE OR THE BOTTLE TO BREAK.
WHEN PACKING THE VIALS AND BOTTLES, BE SURE TO USE THE VIAL HOLDERS AND BOTTLE RACK TO HOLD YOUR SAMPLES. THIS WILL HELD TO PREVENT DIRECT CONTACT OF THE BLUE ICE WITH THE VIAL OR BOTTLE.
BUBBLE WRAP MAY BE USED TO PREVENT DIRECT CONTACT.
FROZEN SAMPLES WILL BE REJECTED BY THE LABORATORY REQUIRING THAT YOU RESAMPLERESAMPLE.

66 FR 76708December 7, 2000Vol. 65, No. 236
Purpose Reducing the exposure toradionuclides in drinking waterwill reduce the risk of cancer.This rule will also improvepublic health protection byreducing exposure to allradionuclides.
GeneralDescription
The rule retains the existingMCLs for combined radium-226and radium-228, gross alphaparticle radioactivity, and betaparticle and photon activity.The rule regulates uranium forthe first time.
UtilitiesCovered
Community water systems, allsize categories.
Publ i c Hea l th Benef i t sImplementation ofthe RadionuclidesRule will result in . . .
Reduced uraniumexposure for 620,000persons, protection fromtoxic kidney effects ofuranium, and a reducedrisk of cancer.
Estimated impacts ofthe RadionuclidesRule include . . .
Annual compliance costsof $81 million.
Only 795 systems willhave to install treatment.
Crit ical Deadlines & Requirements
For Drinking Water SystemsJune 2000 - December 8, 2003 When allowed by the State, data collected between these
dates may be eligible for use as grandfathered data(excluding beta particle and photon emitters).
December 8, 2003 Systems begin initial monitoring under State-specifiedmonitoring plan unless the State permits use ofgrandfathered data.
December 31, 2007 All systems must complete initial monitoring.
For StatesDecember 2000 - December 2003 States work with systems to establish monitoring
schedules.
December 8, 2000 States should begin to update vulnerability assessmentsfor beta photon and particle emitters and notify systemsof monitoring requirements.
Spring 2001 EPA meets and works with States to explain new rulesand requirements and to initiate adoption andimplementation activities.
December 8, 2002 State submits primacy revision application to EPA. (EPAapproves within 90 days.)

Uranium (1)Beta Particle and Photon
Radioactivity (1)
Initial Monitoring
Four consecutive quarters of monitoring. No monitoring required for most CWSs.Vulnerable CWSs (2) must sample for: • Gross beta: quarterly samples. • Tritium and Strontium-90: annual samples.
Reduced Monitoring
If the average of the initial monitoring results foreach contaminant is below the detection limit: Onesample every 9 years.
If the average of the initial monitoring results foreach contaminant is greater than or equal to thedetection limit, but less than or equal to one-halfthe MCL: One sample every 6 years.
If the average of the initial monitoring results foreach contaminant is greater than one-half the MCL,but less than or equal to the MCL: One sampleevery 3 years.
If the running annual average of the grossbeta particle activity minus the naturallyoccurring potassium-40 activity is less than orequal to 50 pCi/L: One sample every 3 years.
Increased Monitoring
A system with an entry point result above the MCLmust return to quarterly sampling until 4consecutive quarterly samples are below the MCL.
If gross beta particle activity minus thenaturally occurring potassium-40 activityexceeds 50 pCi/L, the system must: • Speciate as required by the State. • Sample at the initial monitoring frequency.
(1) All samples must be collected at each entry point to the distribution system.(2) The rule also contains requirements for CWSs using waters contaminated by effluents from nuclear facilities.
Grandfa ther ing o f Da taWhen allowed by the State, data collected between June, 2000 and December 8, 2003 may be usedto satisfy the initial monitoring requirements if samples have been collected from: • Each entry point to the distribution system (EPTDS). • The distribution system, provided the system has a single EPTDS. • The distribution system, provided the State makes a written justification explaining why the sample is representative of all EPTDS.
