Site Visits

Representatives of regulating agencies conduct site visits. A regulating agency is a government agency that has rule enforcement authority over assigned public water systems. Possible reasons for conducting a site visit include: performing a compliance inspection, investigating a complaint, providing technical support (e.g., training), and inspecting construction. One of the most common reasons for a site visit is to perform a sanitary survey. A sanitary survey is an important element in helping water systems protect public health. Sanitary surveys are carried out to evaluate:
   
  •  
 The capability of a drinking water system to consistently and reliably deliver an adequate quality and quantity of safe drinking water to the consumer.
  •  
 The system’s compliance with federal drinking water regulations. Much of the information generated by a sanitary survey helps identify existing and potential sanitary risks.
 
On the Site Visits page you may view information about site visits that have been made at a water system. The page also includes basic water system information, such as Water System No. , Water System Name , Principal County Served , Status , Federal and State Type , Source , and Activity Date .
 
The page displays Site Visits that have occurred in the last 2 years, by default.  If you want to see the site visits that have been made during other periods of time, use the Site Visit Date From and To fields in the mm/dd/yyyy format and then click on Search .
