Section Env-Dw 712.29 - Compliance Determination for PFAS Contaminants; Limiting Public Notice
(a) Compliance with Env-Dw 705.06 shall be determined using the analytical results obtained at each sampling point that is an entry point to the distribution system, as specified in the sampling schedule established pursuant to Env-Dw 708.01.
(b) For any PWS that conducts monitoring for PFAS contaminants at a frequency greater than annually, the department shall determine compliance by calculating a running annual average of all samples collected at each sampling point. If the annual average of any sampling point is greater than the MCL, then the department shall identify the PWS as out of compliance.
(c) If monitoring for PFAS contaminants is conducted annually or less frequently, then the department shall identify the PWS as being out of compliance if the level of a PFAS contaminant at any sampling point is greater than the MCL.
(d) If a PWS has a distribution system with portions that are hydraulically separate from other parts of the distribution system, the O/O may request approval from the department pursuant to Env-Dw 801 to limit the notice to only that portion that is out of compliance.
