Details: SUMMARY: Lead and Copper results post treatment change to soda ash DETAILS: System has exceeded lead levels in most recent sampling round (2009). They requested circuit rider assistance. I recommended that the system collect lead and copper samples at the four highest sites after samples were collected on 10/11-12/2010, which was mid-October. The A.L., with the highest result being 0.0116 mgl for Lead. Jeff sent results to me for review and I also requested pH and alkalinity data from Jeff and I reviewed those to compare with levels from when caustic soda was added. ACTION NEEDED: Meet with Jeff to discuss sampling data and evaluate soda ash effectiveness, which appears to be working. Establish first round sampling schedule and verify sites.
