Details: | SUMMARY: Discussed Recent Arsenic Results and Public Notice Requirement DETAILS: Joel called regarding the recent DWP arsenic mailing that went to transient and state-regulated water systems. Two arsenic samples collected 7/27/12 had results of 0.120 and 0.123 mg/l, roughly 12 times the drinking water standard. Since the arsenic concentration is above the acute standard of 0.050 mg/l, a public notice must be posted to inform customers. Discussed the possibility of adding treatment to the system, and that this would require going through the DWP plan review process. ACTION NEEDED: System to post public notice. |
