Non-Critical Inadequate Chemical Analysis Data

The chemical sample results dated April 1, 2020 report a manganese concentration of 0.035 mg/L.

Corrective Actions: Please resample this parameter to confirm the concentration, given the recommended concentration of manganese entering the distribution system is 0.015 mg/L. Alternatively, please consider the option of conducting a full-spectrum chemical analysis which is due every five years and will be required for this water system in 2025. The list of parameters is enclosed.
