Drinking Water Warning

Notices Mailed August 12, 2020

Do not give the water to infants under 6 months old or use it to make infant formula.

A water sample collected on 4/13/2020 showed a nitrate level of 13 mg/L. Another sample collected on 7/21/2020 showed a nitrate level of 11 mg/L. This is above the federal nitrate standard, or maximum contaminant level (MCL), of 10 mg/L. Nitrate in drinking water is a serious health concern for infants less than six months old.
