  • Revised Total Coliform Rule (RTCR) Summary
This video summarizes the Revised Total Coliform Rule (RTCR) that became effective April 1, 2016.  The new rule is designed to increase the protection of public health by reducing the potential pathways for bacteria to get into a drinking water system.

  • Revised Total Coliform Rule (RTCR) Level 1 Assessments and Start-up Procedures
This video discusses the start-up procedures for seasonal supplies and Level 1 Assessments, which are new requirements of the Revised Total Coliform Rule (RTCR) that became effective April 1, 2016.  The start-up procedures and Level 1 Assessments are both checklists that walk you through your water system and attempt to aid you in finding any issues that could be allowing contaminants to enter your system.

  • Bacterial Sample Collection Procedure
This video covers proper bacterial sample collection procedures for drinking water, including where and where not to collect these types of samples. In addition, the importance of monitoring your water for bacteria is discussed. Monitoring is really the only way to ensure the water you are serving to the public is safe to drink.
