| Details: | I spoke with the operator, which is the the professional engineer that installed the new arsenic treatment system, regarding the arsenic exceedance (0.0119 mg/l). He says that the well has a low water yield (in gpm) which is affecting treatment effectiveness. He says that the Metsorb media (arsenic adsorbent filter) could need replacing. We've tentatively scheduled their water system survey for the last week of December. He will be running the well water into a seperate storage tank temporarily in order to troubleshoot the treatment failure. I will follow up with them to understand what they've tried in order to get the treatment system working again. I also emailed the owner about the exceedance and he wasn't sure what could have caused the treatment failure. He deferred to the operator on explaining the treatment system failure. gpm - gallons per minute |
