# New Document: VA Water System Acceptability Acknowledgment (Cx24007)
May 19, 2020
Topics: [Document Updates](https://compliance.docutech.com/tag/document-updates)
VA Circ. 26-20-13, Change 1 adds the following to VA Circ. 26-20-13 (a Circular providing guidance on valuation practices during the COVID-19 pandemic):
“d. Water System Acceptability. Well water testing for refinance transactions where the home is already encumbered by a VA loan will be waived. In areas where testing is suspended due to COVID-19, the Veteran will need to sign an acknowledgment stating they are aware that testing cannot be done for purchase and refinance transactions where the home is not already encumbered by a VA-guaranteed loan. The lender is responsible to have a test completed within 180 days. Prior to loan closing, the Veteran must acknowledge they accept responsibility to install a filtration system at their own cost to correct the issue should the water test fail. VA staff and/or the Staff Appraisal Reviewer (SAR) must annotate the Veteran acknowledgement and 180-day requirement in NOV Condition #16, Other Conditions, on the NOV.”
We are now providing Cx24007 for this (temporary) requirement. The document is formatted as an acknowledgment, under which the undersigned states his/her/their understanding of certain facts and takes responsibility to install a filtration system should the eventual well water testing fail.
**Because this document may or may not apply depending on whether or not the subject property is located in an area where testing is suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic (which can change rapidly), we are unable to configure it to print on this condition.** We will, however, configure it to print broadly based upon the following conditions:
- Base Type = VA
- Document Package Type = Initial Disclosure
- Private Well = Yes
- VA Interest Rate Reduction Refinancing Loan (IRRRL) = No
These conditions may cause the document to print in packages in which it is not applicable (*i.e.*, well testing has *not* been suspended in the area in which the subject property is located), **but clients can deselect it from these packages (or may customize the print conditions)**.
This document will be available on production starting May 27, 2020. If you have any questions or concerns about these changes, please contact Client Support at 1.800.497.3584.
