MCL, LRAA - TTHM/HAA5
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has notified the SHAN D WATER SUPPLY
PWS 2010042 public water system that the drinking water being supplied to customers had exceeded the
Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) for total trihalomethanes. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(U.S. EPA) has established the MCL for total trihalomethanes to be 0.080 milligrams per liter (mg/L) based on a
locational running annual average (LRAA) and has determined that it is a health concern at levels above
the MCL. Analysis of drinking water in your community for total trihalomethanes indicates a compliance
value in;
Trihalomethanes are a group of volatile organic compounds that are formed when chlorine, added to the water during the treatment process for disinfection, reacts with naturally-occurring organic matter in the w465ater.
Some people who drink water containing trihalomethanes in excess of the MCL over many years may experience problems with their liver, kidney, or central nervous systems, and may have an increased risk of getting cancer.
You do not need to use an alternative water supply. However, if you have health concerns, you may want to
talk to your doctor to get more information about how this may affect you.
We are taking the following actions to address this issue: (TTHM)
We are monitoring the system and adding the correct chemicals and flushing regularly
