The
first
part
of
this
appendix
includes
general
system
information
and
a
summary
of
TTHM
and
HAA5
data
that
resulted
in
Elm
City
having
to
perform
a
significant
excursion
evaluation.
This
information
is
not
required
when
documenting
a
significant
excursion.
Only
the
Significant
Excursion
Report
is
required
to
be
completed
by
systems
that
experience
a
significant
excursion.

This
appendix
is
provided
as
an
example
of
a
system
in
which
changes
in
both
treatment
plant
and
distribution
system
operations
led
to
a
DBP
Significant
Excursion.
Possible
strategies
to
reduce
excursions
are
presented
in
Chapter
4,
but
they
are
not
to
be
included
in
the
identification
and
documentation
process.
Appendices
B
through
D
provide
similar
examples
for
systems
in
which
one
primary
change
either
in
source
water
quality,
treatment
plant
operations,
or
distribution
system
operations
resulted
in
a
significant
excursion.

This
example
assumes
the
state
has
chosen
to
use
100
µ
g/
L
TTHM
and
75
µ
g/
L
HAA5
as
the
trigger
levels
for
determining
that
a
significant
excursion
has
occurred
and
that
a
significant
excursion
evaluation
is
required.

DBP
Excursion
Investigation:

During
the
last
sampling
period
which
took
place
in
September
2004,
Elm
City
experienced
unusually
high
TTHM
values
(
relative
to
the
LRAA)
at
three
monitoring
locations
(#
1,
#
2,
#
3).
Similarly,
unusually
high
HAA5
values
were
detected
at
two
monitoring
locations
(#
1
and
#
2).
DBP
data
from
the
previous
year
and
most
recent
sampling
period
(
five
quarters
total)
are
presented
in

1Data
for

conducted
on
September
2003,
December
2003,
March
2004
and
June
2004.
Data
relevant
to
peak
excursions
are
bold
and
underlined.

Unusually
high
TTHM
samples
were
collected
at
locations
#
1,
#
2,
and
#
3,
and
unusually
high
HAA5
samples
were
collected
at
locations
#
1
and
#
2.
The
results
are
significantly
higher
than
both
the
LRAA
at
those
locations
for
the
previous
12­
month
period
and
the
historic
TTHM
and
HAA5
values
at
those
locations
for
the
years
1998­
2002
(
see
Significant
Excursions
Evaluation
Report).
Significant
excursions
were
identified
when
DBP
levels
exceeded
100
µ
g/
L
TTHM
or
75
µ
g/
L
HAA5.
All
of
the
monitoring
locations
affected
by
high
DBP
are
located
in
the
area
served
by
the
Hardwood
plant.
The
city
staff
has
reason
to
believe
that
a
process
change
that
occurred
during
treatment
operations
at
the
Hardwood
plant
caused
this
increase
in
DBP
levels.

Conclusions:

Did
a
process
upset
in
the
treatment
plant
cause
or
contribute
to
your
significant

s)?

Yes
X
No
If
yes,
please
explain:

Ferric
chloride
was
underfed
for
two
days
prior
to
the
September
2004
sampling
event
resulting
in
lower
TOC
removal
at
the
Hardwood
plant.
The
increased
TOC
concentration
passing
through
the
treatment
process
contributed
to
increased
formation
of
TTHM
and
HAA5
at
Locations
1,
2,
and
3
as
these
locations
are
supplied
by
the
Hardwood
treatment
plant.
The
low
ferric
dose
was
the
result
of
poor
calibration
of
the
standby
feed
pumps
that
were
placed
in
service
during
the
maintenance
of
the
duty
feed
pumps.
The
pH
of
coagulation
increased
from
the
usual
5.5
to
6.2
range
to
7.1
to
7.3
during
the
low
coagulant
dose.

Attach
all
supporting
operational
or
other
data
which
led
you
to
conclude
this
was
the
cause
of
your

or

this

Planned
Change
or
Maintenance
Activities
for
the
Treatment
Plant
°
Was
there
a
recent
change
(
or
addition)
of
pre­
oxidant?

°
Was
there
any
maintenance
in
the
basin
that
may
have
stirred
sludge
from
the
bottom
of
the
basin
and
caused
it
to
carry
over
to
the
point
of
disinfectant
addition?

°
Did
you
change
the
type
or
manufacturer
of
the
coagulant?

°
Were
there
any
changes
in
disinfection
practices
in
the
days
prior
to
the
excursion?

S
For
example,
a
switch
from
chloramines
to
free
chlorine
for
burnout
period.

S
Discontinuation
of
ozone
which
forms
very
little
TTHM.

°
Was
a
filter(
s)
taken
off­
line
for
an
extended
period
of
time
that
caused
the
other
filters
to
operate
near
maximum
design
capacity
and
creating
the
conditions
for
possible
breakthrough?

°
Were
any
pumps
shut
down
for
maintenance,
leading
to
changes
in
flow
patterns
or
hydraulic
surges?

Conclusions:

Did
a
planned
maintenance
or
operational
activity
in
the
treatment
plant
cause
or
contribute
to
your
significant
excursion(
s)?

Yes
No

this

Planned
Distribution
System
Operations
or
Maintenance
Activities
°
Was
a
tank
drained
for
cleaning
or
other
maintenance?

S
Was
the
tank
drained
to
waste
or
to
the
distribution
system?

S
Was
a
larger
volume
than
normal
drained
to
the
distribution
system?

°
If
booster
disinfection
is
used,
was
the
booster
disinfectant
dose
higher
than
the
normal
booster
disinfectant
dose
for
that
season?

°
Were
there
any
system
maintenance
activities
in
the
days
prior
to
DBP
excursion?
Including:
 
Repairing
mains
or
installing
new
mains
 
Closure
of
valves
to
isolate
sections
of
pipes
°
Were
the
pipes
flushed
properly
or
were
the
appropriate
valves
re­
opened
after
work
was
completed?

°
Did
any
pump
or
pipeline
maintenance
occur
that
would
have
changed
the
flow
pattern
in
the
area
the
sample
was
drawn
from?

S
Change
in
flow
can
cause
water
in
stagnant
areas
to
be
drawn
into
another
area.

°
Did
any
pipeline
replacement
occur?

S
Disinfecting
piping
in
contact
with
drinking
water
could
result
in
a
high
concentration
of
chlorine
entering
the
distribution
system
and
thus
increase
DBPs.

Conclusions:

Did
a
planned
distribution
system
maintenance
or
operational
activity
cause
or
contribute
to
your
significant
excursion(
s)?

Yes
X
No
If
yes,
please
explain:

One
area
of
the
Pineville
subdivision
was
flushed
in
response
to
customer
complaints
about
water
quality.
The
flushing
activity
created
additional
water
demand
in
that
area
and
reduced
the
pressure
in
the
vicinity
of
the
fire
hydrants
that
were
flushed.
The
low
pressure
altered
water
flow
patterns
and
caused
more
than
normal
drawdown
from
one
of
the
storage
tanks.
Simulation
of
the
flushing
activities
using
the
city's
hydraulic
model
indicated
that
a
change
in
water
flow
pattern
caused
water
from
one
of
the
stagnant
zones
in
Oakwood
subdivison
to
flow
to
the
flushed
areas.
As
the
water
flowed
towards
the
flushed
areas,
it
flowed
through
the
vicinity
of
Location
3
bringing
old
water
to
this
location.

An
overview
of
the
tank
level
data
from
SCADA
indicated
that
the
water
level
in
Pineville
tank
generally
drops
to
about
10
feet
below
the
maximum
tank
water
level
of
35
feet.
However,
at
the
time
of
the
flushing
activities,
the
water
level
in
this
tank
dropped
25
feet
below
the
maximum
tank
water
level.
This
unusual
drop
in
water
level
caused
the
relatively
unmixed
water
with
high
age
to
be
drawn
into
the
distribution
system
and
reach
Location
2
which
is
located
close
to
the
tank.

Attach
all
supporting
operational
or
other
data
which
led
you
to
conclude
this
was
the
cause
of
your
excursion(
s)
or
make
sure
this
data
is
available
during
your
sanitary
survey.

Unplanned
Distribution
System
Events
°
Were
there
increases
in
demand
that
caused
older
water
in
storage
tanks
to
be
drawn
into
the
system?

S
Were
there
any
major
fire
events?

S
Did
one
or
more
storage
tank
have
greater
than
average
drawdown
preceding
the
time
of
DBP
peak
excursion?

°
Were
there
decreases
in
demand
that
resulted
in
longer
than
normal
system
residence
times?

S
Were
there
any
large
customers
off­
line?

°
Did
any
main
breaks
occur
causing
changes
in
flow
patterns
in
the
influence
area
of
the
sample
location?

°
If
you
collect
water
temperature
inside
storage
tanks,
was
the
temperature
inside
the
tank
higher
than
normal
for
the
season?

°
Were
any
storage
tanks
hydraulically
locked
out
of
the
system
for
an
extended
period
and
then
used
preceding
the
time
of
DBP
peak
excursion?

°
Did
changes
in
overall
water
demand
cause
a
change
in
water
demand
patterns
in
the
vicinity
of
dead
ends
and/
or
stagnant
zones
in
the
system?

°
Were
there
large
variations
in
localized
system
pressures
that
were
different
from
the
normal
pressure
range
that
could
have
caused
a

patterns
in

and/
