by the supplier is representative of the water supplied to consumers and is
consistent with regulatory requirements of the Colorado Primary
Drinking Water Regulations.
(b) The supplier must maintain the monitoring
plan and make it available for inspection by the Department.
11.5(3) Monitoring Plan Required Elements
(a) The supplier
must include all of the following information in the monitoring plan:
(i) Part 1 - System Summary:
(A) The Colorado public water system
identification number (PWSID).
(B)
The full name of the supplier (e.g., the name of a corporation, LLC,
partnership, sole proprietor, HOA, etc.).
(C) The system's mailing address.
(D) The name of the supplier's authorized
contact person(s) responsible for the development and implementation of the

non-community).
(G) The total
population supplied by the system, by population type (i.e., the number of

(H) The physical addresses of all system
facilities, including master meters, and the latitude and longitude of all
facilities.
(I) The physical
location of all records required under 11.36.
(ii) Part 2 - Water Sources Details:
(A) Identification of all water sources
capable of being used by the system, (i.e., those connected by conveyances,
whether currently producing or not).
(B) A schematic, diagram or sketch showing
how the flow from each source is connected to the treatment processes and the
distribution system.
(iii) Part 3 - Water Treatment Details:
(A) A summary of the system's operating
characteristics.
(B) A schematic of
the water treatment plant(s) identifying:
(I)
All treatment processes, including all chemical feed points, and the associated
periods of operation that were assumed in the design of the monitoring plan
(e.g., use of peaking facilities, alternative water sources, maintenance
schedules that take facilities offline, etc.).
(II) All treatment plant monitoring
locations.
(iv) Part 4 - Distribution System Details:
(A) A schematic of the distribution system
identifying all of the following:
(I) All
entry points.
(II) All treatment
facilities located after the entry point(s) (e.g., booster
chlorination).
(III) All storage
facilities and finished water reservoirs.
(IV) All distribution system sampling
locations.
(V) All master meters to
other public water systems.
(VI)
All pump stations.
(v) Part 5 - Individual Rule Sampling Plans:
(A) For each applicable monitoring or
sampling requirement:
(I) The frequency and
approximate time of collection.
(II) The monitoring and sampling location
identification and associated identification number.
(III) The justification for distribution
system monitoring location selections and, if appropriate, the justification
for all other monitoring and sampling location selections.
(IV) The sample preservation, quality
assurance, and quality control procedures, including procedures for equipment
calibration.
(V) The analysis
procedure (i.e., certified laboratory or on-site by a Department-approved
party).
(VI) The monitoring and
sampling results presentation format.
(VII) Procedures to assess and report
compliance status for MCLs, MRDLs, action levels, treatment techniques and, if
applicable, disinfection byproduct precursor removal efficiency.
(VIII) A process to review and update the
selected distribution system monitoring and sampling locations to account for
changes due to growth or other significant changes to the distribution
system.
(b) The supplier may use one schematic if it

(i) For surface water systems supplying
greater than (>) 3,300 people, the supplier must also submit a copy of the
Individual Rule Sampling Plan for the following no later than the date the
supplier collects the first sample: 11.23: Maximum Residual Disinfectant Levels
Rule, 11.24: Disinfection Byproduct Precursors Rule, 11.25(2): Chlorite, and
11.25(3): Bromate.
(A) The Department may
review and require the supplier to revise the sampling plan.
(b) The supplier must
submit the Individual Rule Sampling Plan information specified in 11.5(3)(a)(v)
