Details: SUMMARY: Response to high arsenic levels DETAILS: A water quality alert was received by KCEH on February 15, 2008 for MCL violation. The current arsenic sample test result is 0.012. I spoke with Rob Grounds regarding the arsenic level. The system is located on a volcanic region and its drinking water system has reportedly had arsenic problems since 1938. I discussed with Rob possible ways for bringing the levels down. ACTION NEEDED: Arsenic levels need to be reduced. This can be done either by blending water sourced within the system, I.e. increasing the flow of sources with lower arsenic levels, and decreasing the flow of those with higher arsenic levels, as we discussed. We also discussed the likelihood of a filtration system being implemented. At this point the method for arsenic reduction is still being debated.
