Assistance Type: WATER QUALITY ALERT RESPONSE
Reasons: Nitrate
 
Details: On 7-31-25 I received an alert for a nitrate result of 6.76 mg/l taken on 7-23-25 at EP-A for the wells. The system blends sources to reduce high nitrate levels in the MC Well #1 source (SRC-AA) and has a history of seasonal variations in nitrate (documented in numerous contact reports in the past), but has remained consistently below the MCL of 10 mg/l. I emailed Matt just to see if there were any issues with treatment and he replied saying that treatment was going well and that nitrate levels have started to their seasonal downturn. No further action at this time other than to keep blending to minimize nitrate levels.
