(A) CWSs must conduct initial
				monitoring to determine compliance with section 9 of this rule by December 31,
				2007. Unless exempted under subdivision (2) or reduced under clause (D),

				be according to the following:
(i) Every
				existing CWS or source using ground water or surface water or a system using
				both ground and surface water (to be known as "system" for purposes of this
				section) must sample at every entry point to the distribution system that is
				representative of all sources being used (to be known as "sampling point" for
				purposes of this section) under normal operating conditions. The system must
				take each sample at the same sampling point unless conditions make another
				sampling point more representative of each source.
(ii) Every new CWS or source or CWS that uses
				a new source of water must conduct initial monitoring for the new source within
				the first quarter after initiating use of the source.
(iii) A system must conduct more frequent
				monitoring when ordered by the commissioner in the event of possible
				contamination or when changes in the distribution system or treatment processes
				occur that may increase the concentration of radioactivity in finished
				water.
(D) The
				commissioner may waive the final two (2) quarters of initial monitoring for a
				sampling point if the results of the samples from the previous two (2) quarters
				are below the detection limit.
(E)
				If the average of the initial monitoring results for a sampling point is above
				the MCL, the system must collect and analyze quarterly samples at that sampling
				point until the system has results from four (4) consecutive quarters that are
				at or below the MCL, unless the system enters into another schedule as part of
				a formal compliance agreement with the commissioner.

				distribution; the system must sample at an entry point to the distribution
				system during periods of normal operating conditions when water representative
				of all sources is being used.
(D) The commissioner may reduce the total
				number of samples that must be analyzed by allowing the use of compositing
				according to the following:
(i) Compositing
				of samples must be done by certified laboratory personnel.

				analyzed within fourteen (14) days at each sampling point used in the
				composite.
(BB) If duplicates of or
				sufficient quantities from the original samples from each sampling point used
				in the composite are available, the system may use these instead of
				resampling.
