Details: | SUMMARY: Arsenic in Source Well DETAILS: The City of Prescott provides water to approximately 75 people through 39 connections. The water system consists of a single well with a water softener. The water softener currently removes iron and reduces hardness. HBH was originally contacted by Bill Fujii with Water Resources Dept regarding arsenic levels exceeding the MCL. HBH was subsequently contacted by DWP and the system to provide emergency assistance in determining the best course of action for the City to take to reduce arsenic levels. I reviewed chemical testing data and recommended additional chemical and physical testing. I investigated surface water rights. I performed treatment selection based on available data. ACTION NEEDED: Continue to assist with selection of proper treatment and/or operational options to achieve compliance with Arsenic MCL. |
