Details: | SUMMARY: ASR well HAA5 result above MCL DETAILS: Lacey submitted a "prior to recovery" DBP result collected 5/18/15 for the ASR wells. This sample was above the MCL for HAA5s. The sample was collected from the wells as they are flushed to waste, prior to bringing them online to serve customers. She indicated that they continued to flush the wells to waste until results were well below the MCL prior to putting water out in to the distribution system. ACTION NEEDED: This sample is not representative of water that is going out to customers (it was sampled while wells were flushing to waste). System took appropriate action by flushing to waste until results were below MCL prior to putting water out in to the distribution system. | ||
