Details: | A resident of City of Prescott received a notification letter regarding the water system's Arsenic sample results of 0.015 mg/L from January which exceed the MCL. The resident called our department to discuss and wanted to know what the next steps were to resolve this issue. I called Kathy from McMullen Water to follow up and ask if a confirmation Arsenic water sample was collected. Kathy claims that an Arsenic confirmation water sample was collected last week, early February, and delivered to Edge Water Lab. The sample was collected after the plug in the system's arsenic treatment system's chlorine injector was cleared out, according to McMullen Water. The resident forwarded a copy of this notification letter to me. I also spoke with Jim Oswald who was listed as a contact for the water system on that notification letter. Jim claims that McMullen Water is still the main system operators, however he assists with water system operations as well. |
