Sample or "monitoring" schedules provide water system owners, operators,and laboratories with the information that lets them know the sampling or monitoring requirements for a specific water system, water system facility, and analyte. An example of such a schedule is the requirement that one routine sample be collected and analyzed for the regulated volatile organic chemicals (VOC) at Water System Facility #1 every 3 years with the next sample to be collected between 1/1/2003 and 12/31/2006.
On the Sample Schedules page you may view basic water system information, such as Water System No., Water System Name, Principal County Served, Status, Federal and State Type, Source, and Activity Date.
You may also view four different types of open schedules for the water system. Open schedules are those whose End Date is not valued or is after today.
(1) TCR Schedules – Schedules that specify the frequency and timeframe for which a water system must monitor for Total Coliform bacteria – Analyte Code 3100 (which may include fecal pathogens (fecal coliform – Analyte Code 3013 and Escherichia coli (E. coli) – Analyte Code 3014). You can view the list of TCR schedules for this water system using the following fields:
(2) Facility Analyte Field Sample Schedules – Lists the monitoring requirements for both state and federal regulations (Turbidity, Surface Water Treatment, Interim Enhanced Surface Water Treatment, and Long Term 1 Surface Water Treatment Rules) which vary by specific analyte as well as the type and size of a treatment plant. You can view the list of facility analyte monitoring requirements for this water system using the following fields:
Water System Facility State Asgn ID No.
(3) Non-TCR Group Schedules – Open schedules that specify the frequency and timeframe for which a water system must monitor for analytes other than Coliform bacteria. These schedule groups reference Analyte Group Codes. Schedule Groups are different from individual schedules in that a Schedule Group references an Analyte Group, which are simply groupings of analytes. Schedule Groups are convenient to use when the monitoring requirements for a group of analytes are the same. You can view the list of Schedule Groups for this water system using the following fields. Pressing the Analyte Group Code link displays the Analytes in Analyte Group page.
Water System Facility State Asgn ID No.
(4) Non-TCR Individual Schedules – – Open schedules that specify the frequency and timeframe for which a water system must monitor for analytes other than Coliform bacteria. These open individual schedules reference a single Analyte , that is, they are not schedules associated with a Schedule Group. You can view the list of Non-TCR Individual Schedules for this water system using the following fields:
Water System Facility State Asgn ID No.
