Details: | SUMMARY: Follow up Lead and Copper Requirements DETAILS: I updated Andy on the Districts future lead and copper requirements. The District will be coming off of the Portland Joint Monitoring Plan on June 30, 2017, as they use District groundwater to supplement purchased Portland water. The District will begin taking the standard 60 lead and copper samples for two six-month rounds, beginning with the July to December 2017 monitoring period, and future monitoring will be based on these initial rounds. The District will not be required to conduct extra monitoring or lead public education as they come off the Portland joint plan, as District water quality may be different than strict Portland water. The District may choose to conduct extra sampling or lead education voluntarily. Any future increased monitoring or lead public education requirements will be based solely on Rockwoods sample results. ACTION NEEDED: District to identify 60 sites according to the tiered sample criteria and submit documentation (EPA 141-A) forms for new lead and copper sample sites to DWS prior to fall sampling for review. DWS to establish new sample schedule. Andy indicated that the District will likely still provide basic lead public education to their customers after sampling on their own. |
