Assistance Type: OTHER REGULATORY - Reactivating the PWS
 
Details: Stopped by Silvies Valley Ranch. Met with Robb and chef Damon Jones. Based on the number of employees and guests, the system is being reactivated as a state-regulated water system. Discussed sampling requirements of quarterly bacteria samples during their seasonal operation period, annual nitrate, and a one-time arsenic. The old well and 20,000 gallon reservoir that were in use when it was Ponderosa Ranch have been disconnected from the potable system. Discussed the need for the new well to go through OHA-DWS plan review. The 1.5 mile transmission line from the well to the buildings also serves as the water storage.
