Universal Citation: NV Admin Code 445A.66765

Current through September 16, 2024

1. Treatment facilities must be capable of producing water that complies with the requirements of NAC 445A.450 to 445A.492, inclusive. If a treatment facility is designed to meet primary standards, the facility must use the best available technology to attain that purpose. If a supplier of water proposes to meet secondary standards by using point-of-entry treatment devices or point-of-use treatment devices, or both, the proposal must be reviewed and approved by the Division or the appropriate district board of health before it is carried out.

2. Before a supplier of water selects a design for a treatment facility, it shall cause an engineer to conduct an investigation to determine the physical, chemical, microbiological and radiological characteristics of the raw water to be treated. The investigation must include:

(a) A determination of any seasonal variations in the quality of the raw water; and

(b) A sanitary survey of the relevant portions of the public water system in this State, to identify potential sources of contamination that could affect the quality of the water at its source, at any impoundments of the water and at any facilities for the delivery of the water.
