In the water drawn from Well Number 3, the concentration of vinyl chloride in 2009 [at 3.49 micrograms per liter (ug/L)] violated the federal maximum contaminant level of 2 ug/L allowed for a public water supply. Well Number 3 was taken out of service in 2009 and has not been part of the system since then because of the vinyl chloride contamination. This fact sheet also provides a QandA format to address concerns. | | | | Date Created: | 03 06 2012 | | | | Agency ID: | fact sheet #1 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000040457 Original UID: 20643 FIRST WORD: Sauk | |
