The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a new list of 30 unregulated contaminants to be monitored by public water systems once every five years. The intent of the rule is to provide baseline occurrence data that the EPA can combine with the toxicological research to make decisions about potential future drinking water regulations.
During the month of October you will see a notice on your monthly bills that reads:
As required by the EPA we monitored for Unregulated Contaminants in your service area in 2014 & 2015. To learn more or for the complete report, email DeAnna.Simmons@ch2m.com or view more at districtgov.org.
The list of detected Unregulated Contaminants can be found within the complete LSSA 2015 Annual Drinking Water Quality Report by
