Assistance Type: OTHER WATER QUALITY - PFAS detections
Reasons: Other
 
Details: PFAS sampling conducted as part of the OHA PFAS Sampling Project showed PFOS 15.7 ppt, PFOA 5.36 ppt, PFHxS 36.6 ppt, PFBS 13 ppt, PFHxA 6.59 ppt, PFHpA 2.07 ppt, PFPeA 3.49 ppt, PFPeS 4.6 ppt at entry point A (EP-A) for Well for a sample collected on 9/30/25. Although compliance with the MCLs is not yet required, these results indicate that
ASHLAND VALLEY INN may eventually exceed the MCLs for PFOS, PFOA, and PFHxS. Compliance will be based on a running annual average (RAA). If compliance monitoring beginning April 2027 shows the RAA exceeds the MCLs, the system will need to take corrective action to comply with the MCLs by April 2029. A letter was mailed and emailed to the water system on 12/31/25 which included information on how the results compare to the new PFAS MCLs, PFAS rule initial monitoring requirements, and information on Emerging Contaminant funding available to address PFAS.
