Each non-community public water supply located and operating within the county shall be registered by the Health Authority.
(A) Application for registration certificate. An application to operate a non-community public water supply shall be submitted to the Health Authority by the owner, operator, or agent for the water supply. Upon submission of the application for registration, the Health Authority shall review:
(1) Information provided on the application;
(2) The previous year’s water sampling history;
(3) The most recent water supply facility evaluation; and
(4) (a) Other pertinent information including any outstanding facility deficiencies and compliance activities, and the overall level of public health protection of the water supply.
(b) If the Health Authority determines that the water supply is in substantial compliance with applicable regulations and this subchapter, and upon payment of the required fee, a registration certificate shall be issued for the facility. Registration certificates are issued annually and shall expire January 1 of each year.
(B) Registration fee. The fee for registration of a non-community public water supply in the county is established by the Board of Health and is listed on the Health Department fee schedule.
(C) Renewal of registration. Failure of a non-community public water supply to comply with applicable regulations, including the Drinking Water Systems Code and this subchapter, will be just cause for the Health Authority to deny renewal of a registration certificate. A non-community public water supply shall not offer water to the public for drinking and culinary purposes if such facility does not possess a valid registration certificate.
