Details: System reached out to DWS Staff about the TP being down for pump maintenance and this work possible hindering the ability to collect/monitor 3rd quarter TOC alkalinity.
DWS Staff advised system to submit TOC/alkalinity data once the TP was back online in addition to the required 4th quarter monitoring TOC/alkalinity data.

December 2022 Update: System reached out to DWS Staff stating the pump rebuild is not complete and a down tree has made it impossible to get raw water to the TP. The TP is inoperable and the system will be getting 100% of their water from JWC (00379). DWS Staff informed the system they will not be issued a violation for 4th quarter TOC/alkalinity but will be issued violations for not submitting 2022 nitrate and VOC data.

January 2023 Update: replacement pipe support structure for our raw water transmission line is being fabricated and replacement pipe and joints have been ordered. WTP is estimated to be operational until late March/early April and consequently 1st quarter TOC/alkalinity can not be measured.

May 23, 2023 Update: the City's TP is back in operation.
