——==~ —S — Page 3 of 8 CITY OF WEST PALM BEACH’S DRINKING WATER MONITORING PROGRAMS HSA evaluated the City’s monitoring program and most recent results. Steve Schmidt, laboratory manager at the City’s water treatment plant and Chris Saliba of U.S. Water, Corporation, the City’s treatment system process and monitoring consultant, assisted with the acquisition of sampling protocols and laboratory analytical documentation related to the City’s drinking water monitoring program. Discussions with both yielded important information about the City’s drinking water monitoring and quality assurance programs. In addition, records of the City’s Monthly Operating Records (MORs) and recent results from the City’s water monitoring programs were obtained from the Palm Beach County Health Department (part of the State of Florida’s Department of Health, FDOH). The City conducts two programs to monitor its drinking water quality, a Compliance Monitoring Program (compliance) and a Routine Monitoring Program (routine). Sampling locations for the City’s two monitoring programs include the surface water impoundments, inbound raw water, aquifer storage and recovery (ASR) wells, treatment plant points of entry, distribution system points of entry, and distribution system pumps and sampling taps. While Routine program sampling events generally range from monthly to “as needed”, compliance program sampling events generally range from daily to quarterly to annually to sampling for contaminants (like asbestos) every ninth year. To monitor the drinking water quality delivered to the Town, the City conducts routine sampling at ten (10) permanent and temporary compliance distribution system sampling points (taps) situated within the Town’s boundaries. These include: e Distribution System Tap 3230 (located at 3230 S. Ocean Dr.); e Distribution System Tap 2780 (located at 2780 S. Ocean Dr.); e Distribution System Tap PBGC (located at the Palm Beach Golf Course); e Distribution System Tap SOFS
