Sampling for total coliforms and E. coli in the water system is one of the most important things an operator can do. The Revised Total Coliform Rule (RTCR), effective at the Federal level in April 2016, requires compliance by every public water system even though California has not formally adopted a state specific RTCR. The revisions to the former Total Coliform Rule primarily address how operators and managers respond to total coliform positive samples and require steps to analyze the integrity of the system as a result of positive samples. Performing your own Level 1 assessment can save your system time and money. This workshop will focus on triggers for Level 1 and Level 2 assessments, who is qualified to perform each, and how to conduct a Level 1 Assessment with examples and exercises.

Participants will learn:

• Repeat sampling requirements

• Follow-up for a Total Coliform positive result

• Follow-up for an E. coli positive result

• Triggers and timing for required assessments

• How to complete a Level 1 assessment of your system

• Tips on system inspection/investigation

Contact hours have been approved for the Registered Environmental Health Specialist Program.
