. This chapter shall not apply to state small water systems
except as provided under this section:
(a) The department shall adopt regulations specifying minimum
requirements for operation of a state small water system. The
requirements may be less stringent than the requirements for public
water systems as set forth in this chapter.
(b) The minimum requirements for state small water systems adopted
by the department pursuant to subdivision (a) shall be enforced by
the local health officer or a local health agency designated by the
local health officer. In counties that do not have a local health
officer, the requirements shall be enforced by the department. Local
health agencies may adopt more stringent requirements for state small
water systems than those specified in the state regulations.
(c) The reasonable costs of the local health officer in carrying
out the requirements of this section may be recovered through the
imposition of fees on state small water systems by the local
governing body in accordance with Section 101325.
