Section 653.608 - Chlorination Exemption Revocation

a) Chlorination exemptions are valid until revoked.

b) A chlorination exemption shall be revoked immediately without prior notice if a supply fails to meet any of the exemption requirements. An application for a Construction Permit for the installation of chlorination equipment shall be made within 60 days following revocation. Chlorination equipment shall be installed and a properly certified operator shall be retained or an appeal filed with the Illinois Pollution Control Board within 90 days following revocation.

c) One or more of the following conditions will result in revocation:

1) increase in population to greater than 5000;

2) addition of a new source subject to contamination, or finding that an existing source is subject to contamination based on raw water bacteriological analyses records;

3) development of a history of recurring or persistent contamination as indicated by sampling results;

4) addition of treatment other than fluoridation (although a certified operator will not be required if the additional treatment consists of that designated in Ill. Rev. Stat. ch. 111 1/2, par 509.1(f)(e));

5) failure to maintain an active program of educating water consumers on prevention of contamination;

6) failure to have a certified operator or registered person for more than 15 days; or

7) failure to submit bacteriological samples twice a month during more than three months of the past 12 months or for two consecutive sampling periods. A supply which fails to monitor for bacteriological quality on a semi-monthly basis but does have one set of samples analyzed for each monthly sampling period will not be required to make public notice for the monitoring violation.
