State Small Water System Regulatory Questions

A record-based comparison of the SSWS regulatory framework with the produced evidence.

Regulatory provisions to compare against the records

California’s State Small Water System framework requires attention to permit status, technical reports, source identity, source capacity, water quality, system owner, day-to-day operator, and association status.

ProvisionRequirement / issueRecord question
22 CCR §64211Permit requirement and technical report describing service area, distribution system, storage/pumping facilities, water source, source capacity, water quality, treatment, owner, and party responsible for day-to-day operation.What technical report tied the Reed source to the correct parcel, source, capacity, operator, and system in 1990?
22 CCR §64215Water supply capacity requirement for systems not in existence on November 12, 1991.What record demonstrated sufficient capacity for the number of claimed service connections?
22 CCR §64216Association-status issue for systems not in existence on November 12, 1991.What record established system existence by November 12, 1991 or otherwise resolved the association-status issue?

Existence date issue

The 1992 sequence matters because regulatory treatment may depend on whether the system was already in existence on November 12, 1991. Planning discussions, proposed tank locations, later installation work, and later easement documents should be compared against any claim of pre-November 1991 system existence.
