Assistance Type: | OTHER WATER QUALITY - UCMR5 PFAS detection | ||
Reasons: | Other |
||
Details: | PFAS sampling conducted as part of the fifth round of the Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR5) showed PFBS at 3.4 ppt at entry point A (EP-A) for Ranney Collectors for a sample collected on 2/11/25. There is no individual MCL for PFBS in drinking water and the hazard index MCL would not be exceeded. A letter was mailed and emailed to the water system on 3/10/25 which included information on how the results compare to the new PFAS MCLs, requirements to notify customers of availability of UCMR5 results and report detections in the annual consumer confidence report, and information on Emerging Contaminant funding available to address PFAS. |
