Details: SUMMARY: Arsenic Removal Problem DETAILS: HBH was contacted by the system due to high arsenic levels in two of the municipal wells. The system provides water to approximately 900 persons through 400 connections. The water system consists of two older wells and one new well which is not currently approved for use. One of these wells has an arsenic level above the MCL. The water system is maintaining compliance through blending of the well sources. I completed report detailing proper steps for the City to follow to determine best treatment method for the removal of the arsenic. ACTION NEEDED: Potentially aid City with SRF Letter of Interest
