Water Quality Report 2007

In 2006 we sampled every source for metals, nutrients, bacteria, and some for radionuclide chemicals, with the only detections listed in the tables. The finished water was testing for bacteria and disinfection by-products (DBP), the results of naturally occurring organic chemicals reacting with chlorination. The DBP’s testing results were all less than 25% of the EPA’s maximum contamination level. We have also included the EPA’s standards and information about the contaminants that were detectable. A complete listing of all water quality testing and the highest levels ever found in the water system is available at the company office.

We strive to provide you with safe, high quality water that meets or exceeds all federal and state standards. Water quality is tested daily by water company employees and on a regular schedule that includes weekly, annual, and tri-annual analysis by Washington State and EPA certified laboratories.

If you would like more information about contaminants, or any other water issues, we will be happy to answer your questions. Please call (253) 531-9024 and ask for Jeff Johnson, manager.
