Details: SUMMARY: Sample on 7/1/09 exceeded the MCL for arsenic DETAILS: 8/18/09 I spoke with Richard Kirby this morning. He informed me that the spike in arsenic is likely the result of the fact the Moore well, known to be relatively higher in arsenic than the other wells, was placed on line for the summer months. He also informed me that a new well is presently going through plan review and once on line will be blended with the Moore and Robertson wells and will likely dilute the arsenic level. Quarterly arsenic monitoring will need to continue for at least two additional quarters. ACTION NEEDED: Another arsenic sample will need to be collected during the fourth quarter of 2009
