H2O Sys. Num.: 1500521
Water Source: GW
Active Wells Count: 2
Wells Issues?: XXXXX
Issues: Arsenic MCL violations (17ppb in 2003) - The system runs short of water frequently and needs to consolidate Hungry Gulch and Boulder Canyon. Both systems have arsenic exceedances and are currently using POU treatment, but they need funding to install a PO

Potential Solutions: The proposed project is to construct approximately 1000 feet of 4 inch schedule 80 PVC pipeline connecting the two systems with a booster pump, appropriate appurtenances, and replacement 10,000 gallon storage tank. Line would be along Hungry Gulch Rd and the tank would be on an existing site once the failing tank is removed. They are retaining their original water system numbers 1500521 & 1500436 respectively until the physical interconnection line is installed. At that time they will be a single water system and will apply for a single system number with the state. - Add arsenic removal treatment, consolidate with neighboring water system with same problem.
