Active Wells Count: 2
Wells Issues?: XXXXX
Issues: Arsenic 12-14 ppb in 2004 - Arsenic in source exceeds MCL. - The water supply wells have an arsenic level of 12-20 μg/L which is not in compliance with the new drinking water standards. Only Well No. 2 and the storage tank are currently in use.Well No. 1

Potential Solutions: Install arsenic treatment faciliuty. - The selected alternative is to drill an additional well to provide an adequate quantity of water to meet dry cycles and to locate the well in an area that will produce water meeting the arsenic MCL. With primary use of a new well meeting the arsenic MCL and blending from the existing wells as needed to meet peak demands, the water system may be able to meet the water quality standards without treatment.The nature of the groundwater in the adjacent area is typically higher arsenic levels in the lower elevation areas due to natural materials. The FSWC wells have much lower arsenic levels than other water systems in the area at lower elevations. Therefore, a new well at a different location or higher elevation may likely have water quality meeting the arsenic maximum contaminant level (MCL). - Increase storage, repair existing tank. - Drill second well;reranked to O from E; system drilled second well
