• Stage 1− Applied to all community and nontransient
noncommunity water systems that add a chemical disinfectant.
− 221 systems in South Dakota are complying with Stage 1 regulations.
• Stage 2− Will apply to all community and nontransient
noncommunity water systems that add a chemical disinfectant or that purchase water with an added chemical disinfectant.
− 403 systems in South Dakota will have to comply with Stage 2 regulations.
The requirements that apply to each system depend on treatment process and type of source water.

• Must comply with the Stage 1 Must comply with the Stage 1 DBPR requirements for chlorine DBPR requirements for chlorine and chloraminesand chloramines
Compliance Calculation Compliance Calculation & Reporting& Reporting
• Stage 1− Calculate compliance at the end of every quarter in which the
system monitors using the Running Annual Average (RAA) of results from the last 12 months and compare to MCL
• Stage2− Calculate compliance at the end of every quarter in which the
system monitors using a Locational Running Annual Average (LRAA).
Systems must report a LRAA for every site they sample at and each LRAA must be below the MCL.
• Compliance Reporting for Stage 1 & 2− Within 10 days of the end of each quarter in which samples are
taken, report RAA or LRAA, MCL violations, and information about samples to the state.
− Consecutive systems must begin complying with the Stage 1 DBPR requirements for chlorine and chloramines beginning April 1, 2009. Each system must submit a quarterly chlorine residual to the state within 10 days of the end if each quarter.

− It’s a centralized location to process hard copy Stage 2 DBPR & LT2ESWTR submissions
• What is the Goal of the IPMC?−To conduct administrative tasks such as data
entry and mail distribution for the Regions and states
−Have one mailing address that would process all the Stage 2 DBPR & LT2ESWTR submissions
What can be submitted What can be submitted to the IPMC?to the IPMC?

What is the DCTS?– It’s a database that will track and
store Stage 2 DBPR and LT2ESWTR early implementation submissions
– For Stage 2 DBPR, gives you access to the online IDSE tool
Develop and submit your 40/30 Certification or IDSE Plan or Report online
Accessing the IDSE ToolAccessing the IDSE Tool
• There are many ways to access the IDSE Tool– Online
CDX username and password required Submit information electronically to EPA
– CD Version Download or request from EPA warehouse E-mail, fax, or mail information to EPA
– Hard Copy Template From IDSE Guidance Manual Fill in template by hand Mail information to EPA
Accessing the IDSE ToolAccessing the IDSE Tool
Both the online and the CD version of the IDSE Tool have access to the Wizard and the Plan/Report Entry feature
– Wizard determines which IDSE option is best for the system
– IDSE Plan/Report Entry feature creates custom forms for the selected IDSE option and helps the system complete electronic forms
Accessing DCTSAccessing DCTS
• There are two ways to register for DCTS:– Using a CRK key
EPA began distributing CRK keys to PWSs in Summer 2006 (according to system schedule)
– Via the CDX Web site
Access Request Process for Access Request Process for Individuals With a CRK KeyIndividuals With a CRK Key
• What is a CRK Key?– User name and password that allows first
time users to login to the DCTS if the user does not already have access through other applications
• Who will receive a CRK Key?– Administrative users (the first user
associated with an organization) will receive the CRK Key in the mail
– Do not change provided user name to ensure pre-registration works!
User Approval within User Approval within DCTSDCTS
• Administrative users in each organization will be responsible for approving all standard users– Admin user must be registered before others
can use the DCTS for their organization– Some admin users may be linked to more
than one organization (e.g., DCTS users with multiple PWSs)
Commonly used by those who work for a PWS organization

IDSE Tool WizardIDSE Tool WizardOverviewOverview
IDSE Tool: PurposeIDSE Tool: Purpose
• Helps you determine which IDSE option is best for your system
• Guides you through templates, using the IDSE guidance manual excerpts to explain requirements
• Generate an electronic file for your system to submit and keep on file
IDSE Tool: InformationIDSE Tool: Information
• The IDSE Tool is comprised of two modules
– The Wizard– Plan/Report Entry
General Information - General Information - WizardWizard
• The Wizard – Walks you through a series of questions that will help you determine:
– If your system has any IDSE requirements– Appropriate IDSE compliance option for your
system– The specific requirements for your system
determined by its schedule and IDSE compliance option
IDSE Tool – CD VersionIDSE Tool – CD Version
• EPA also developed a CD version of the IDSE Tool– Target audience of IDSE Tool CD Version:
Systems that do not have access to the internet Systems serving fewer than 10,000 Systems serving more than 10,000 may use the CD,
but may need to get additional forms (e.g., to list all monitoring sites
– Limitations: May not submit electronically No pre-populated categories Will not auto-generate monitoring tables
