ILLINOIS ELKS

Dr. Yeager provides foot care for kids through the Illinois Elks program Dr. David Yeager, Podiatric Surgeon, has been providing complimentary foot care to children through the Illinois Elks Children’s Care program for the past 14 years.

The Illinois Elks Children’s Care Corporation has been providing services, treatments, and equipment needed to ease a child’s daily burden in coping with a physical problem.

Many cases are very complex, and require custom designed braces, wheelchairs and treatment programs.

Others may simply be the provi-

sion of corrective shoes or physical/ occupational therapy services for three to six months.

In all cases, they work to be certain appropriate insurance and state benefits are applied before the Elks provide assistance.

The Elks thank Dr. Yeager for his dedication to these kids.

“And thank you to the IECC for providing medical care and equipment for kids for the past 85 years!,” officials said in a press release said.

Dr. David Yeager examines Silas Doelislager for the Elks Children Care Program.

ILLINOIS SCHOOL GUIDELINES

Schools told prepare for return to remote learning in case of surge

By JERRY NOWICKI Capitol News Illinois Illinois released new guidelines for schools, colleges and universities to return to in-person learning in the fall, but leaders warned those plans could change if health metrics related to the COVID-19 pandemic stop improving.

“This fall will not be business as usual, and we will update our guidance as needed,” State Superintendent of Education Carmen Ayala said during a news conference Tuesday in Chicago. “In response to challenging and changing public health conditions, schools and districts must be prepared to return to remote learning if the virus surges again.”

Students and teachers will be required to wear face coverings if they are medically able, gatherings in one place will be limited to no more than 50 people and schools must adhere to stricter cleaning and disinfecting guidelines as well as conduct regular symptom checks.

Gov. JB Pritzker said at the news conference every district must develop its own plan based on those guidelines. Ayala added districts and individual schools will soon send additional information to parents and students.

Pritzker said the Illinois Emergency Management Agency will provide public K-12 districts in Illinois with 2.5 million cloth face masks, allowing schools to provide one to all students and staff.

Universities and community colleges will have similar guidelines

for a fall reopening, including social distancing and physical spacing requirements, hand sanitizing stations, face covering requirements and symptom monitoring. Schools are also developing policies around traffic flow, cleaning of public spaces and staggered schedules for the use of laboratories, auditoriums and other group facilities, according to guidelines.

At this time, the governor’s office said, colleges expect dormitories, cafeterias, libraries, bookstores and other amenities to be available to students provided they meet approved guidelines.

If someone in a school tests positive, those who were in close contact with them — that is, within six feet for 15 to 30 minutes without a face covering, according to Dr. Ngozi Ezike, director of the Illinois Department of Public Health — would be expected to quarantine for 14 days.

Pritzker said local and county health departments will play a major role in deciding a path forward when such a positive test occurs.

Pritzker first ordered all public and private schools, including colleges and universities, to close for in-person instruction on March 13 and on June 4, schools were allowed to offer limited in-person instruction and summer school programs as part of Phase 3 of the reopening plan.

Ezike said the reopening being allowed this fall is the result of significant declines in new cases, deaths and hospitalizations since the peak of the pandemic in Illinois.

Those declines, she said, are the

result of the vast majority of Illinoisans following basic safety guidelines that include frequent hand-washing, wearing face coverings when in public and practicing social distancing.

The fact that the state reports about 20,000 to 30,000 test results daily helps as well, she said. Nearly 1.4 million tests were completed in Illinois since the pandemic began, including 20,507 over the previous 24 hours.

Those yielded 601 new confirmed cases of COVID-19 — a 2.9 percent positivity rate. There were another 38 virus-related deaths over the previous 24 hours, bringing the statewide totals to 137,825 cases and 6,707 deaths. Ezike said the state has had five consecutive weeks of declining new cases and fatalities, and the statewide positivity rate from June 16-22 is 2 percent.

As of midnight Monday, there were 1,648 patients hospitalized for the disease including 424 in intensive care units, 236 of whom were on ventilators. While those all represent sharp declines from the peak of the pandemic in April and May, the total hospital beds in use increased by 20 from the previous day, and the total intensive care unit beds increased by five from the previous day while ventilators used continued to decline.

In advance of schools reopening, Ezike strongly encouraged parents and guardians to make sure their children are up to date on their vaccinations and that all Illinoisans get caught up on basic wellness procedures, including cancer screenings.

She noted there have been steep declines in those procedures since the pandemic began.

“We need to make sure that the kids get checked out by their providers and get their life-saving immunizations,” she said. “Yes, there could be another surge of COVID-19 in the fall or perhaps earlier, but let’s make sure we take this opportunity now to get to our doctors, let’s get our immunizations, let’s get our health screenings, let’s get as healthy as we can. Your baseline health status affects how you fare against this virus.”

Pritzker also said the federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security, or CARES, Act, provided $510 million in relief directly to school districts to address local needs in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Dr. Ayala and I are encouraging all districts to use this funding to close the digital divide by providing devices and internet connectivity and are directing the majority of the remaining funding to purchasing laptops, tablets, virtual coaching for new teachers and internet connectivity to advance a vision of equity for our schools and keep our kids on track for success,” the governor said.

Pritzker’s office said the Illinois State Board of Education will use another $54.1 million in CARES act funding to provide funding to schools in six categories: laptops and tablets, internet connectivity, virtual coaching for teachers, professional development, and support for entities that cannot receive direct funds.

GIVE BLOOD

State’s blood supply “critically low”

STATE NEWS

Voters to receive mail-in applications

BY KAY SHIPMAN FarmWeek Millions of Illinois voters will receive applications to vote by mail in the November election after Gov. J.B. Pritzker recently signed legislation.

The two bills passed during the emergency legislative session apply to only the November 3 general election, which was made a state and school holiday.

“Sending vote by mail applications to residents who have participated

in recent elections will allow more people to exercise that right from the safety of their own homes and help reduce the spread of COVID-19 in our communities,” Pritzker said in a prepared statement.

Under the new law, local election offices must mail or email vote-bymail ballot applications along with pertinent dates to individuals who voted in the 2018 general election, the 2019 consolidated election or the 2020 general primary.

Included are those voters who registered or changed addresses after the primary.

tial Service’ and does not fall under ‘10 person gathering limits’,” she said.

Blood centers follow the Centers for Disease Control and the Illinois Department of Public Health guidelines to allow off-site collection in public places, which allow for social distancing of donors.

“Protocols include staggered collection times, additional cleaning and distancing precautions, temperature readings prior to entrance, etc.,” said Senior Recruitment Manager Matt Pitcher for Vitalant-Illinois.

To donate blood, go to www.americasblood.org to find a donor center

near you to schedule a donation time.

Donor requirements include being at least 17 years old (16 with parental permission), in good health and weigh at least 110 lbs.

The donation process takes about an hour, consisting of a health screening, donating time and snack.

Individuals can donate whole blood once every 56 days.

To host a blood drive, with your business, civic, religious or social organization, please contact the Illinois Coalition of Community Blood Centers 217-280-0206 mvaughn@ springnet1.com to be put in touch with the appropriate blood center staff to organize a drive.

Blood center staff will work with organizations to identify an appropriate space and market the event.

Church halls, gyms, township and municipal centers, park district buildings, etc., work well for location (minimum of about 1000 sq. feet of space). Most mobile blood drives are usually 4-6 hours long but can be tailored to meet the needs of the organizations.

Tuesday, June 30, 2020

Officials from the Illinois Coalition of Community Blood Centers (ICCBC) are trying to make the public aware of Illinois’ dwindling blood supply and the dire need for organizations to step up and continue to host blood drives.

Officials said this is especially important as Illinois advances to Phase 4 of Restore Illinois.

Following the national trend, Illinois Blood Centers are currently running on two day or less supply of blood, putting them at a “critically low” level.

“Since COVID restrictions were lifted for elective procedures and patients returned in mass for medical treatments, surgeries have spiked and blood centers across the state are struggling to keep up with the demand for blood,” said Emily

Alanis, Regional Manager of Donor Recruitment for Vertsiti Blood Center of Illinois.

“Making the situation worse is nearly 60% of the collections blood centers rely on come from offsite blood drives (not from actual donor centers), many of which are not being held due to many sites still being closed, including businesses who have employees working remotely and churches/school/community locations being restricted for external activities.

“Unfortunately, many people don’t realize that blood only has a 42 day shelf life, needs to constantly be replenished, and that there is no substitute,” she said.

Alanis said her agency continuea to receive mobile drive cancellations on a daily basis.

“It is important for civic groups, churches and organizations that ordinarily host blood drives to understand that they can resume holding mobile drives because blood collection is considered ‘an Essen-

RESTHAVE CARE

Resthave Care & Rehabilitation, 408 Maple Avenue, Morrison, opened outdoor visits with residents this week.

Following Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) and state guidelines, families and friends were able to sit outside, social distancing style, for the first time since Covid19 restrictions ensued in March. Visitors were pre-screened via phone the day before the visit and again, with their temperature being taken, once they arrived to visit their loved ones.

Resthave residents were also screened prior to the visit. Resthave had six stations available with two

visitors per 45 minute visit. Each station had bug spray, sun screen and water available with a sign welcoming families back which also explained the restrictions. Between visits, areas were sanitized before the next group was able to visit.

Families were very appreciative of the “glass free” visits. Many visitors and residents had a difficult time not hugging each other goodbye, however realize it is for the safety of their loved one and made due with a “virtual hug” or “blowing kisses” good-bye. Anyone wishing to arrange an outdoor visit with a Resthave resident, may call 815.772.4021 to arrange an appointment.

Phase 4 of the Restore Illinois began on Jume 26 and residents of Resthave Care and Rehabilitation enjoyed a 45 minute visit with loved ones while confirming to pandemic restrictions of social distancing and facial coverings.

Enter Phase 4 with caution; COVID-19 still active Residents reminded COVID-19 still active in our community As Illinois begins to move into Phase 4, the Whiteside County Health Department reminds residents that COVID-19 is still active in our community and urges everyone to work together to protect each other.

While rates of infection and deaths have declined in Illinois, we are seeing an increase in cases across the country.

In addition, we have seen an increase in cases among younger individuals in their 20s and 30s.

These individuals may not suffer severe illness from coronavirus, but any increase in the number of active cases increases the chance of spreading the disease to vulnerable populations.

In the last seven days, 8 of the 13 cases in Whiteside have been under the age of 40.

To help protect our communities, Illinois has released Restore Illinois Phase 4 Guidance-for businesses and the CDC has released a Resuming Business Toolkit and Health and Safety Steps for Specific Occupations.

Additionally, the CDC has released Recommendations for Daily Life including guidance specific for Running Essential Errands such

as shopping, banking and getting gas, Personal and Social Activities, Using Transportation as well as recommendations for Social Distancing, using Cloth Face Coverings, and other everyday steps to prevent COVID-19.

Monitor yourself for Signs and Symptoms of COVID-19, including temperature checks.

If you have symptoms that cannot be explained by a preexisting condition or you have a fever of 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit or higher, stay home and contact your doctor and work supervisor.

Follow CDC guidance if symptoms develop.

If you experience any Emergency Warning Signs, such as trouble breathing, persistent pain or pressure in the chest, new confusion, inability to wake or stay awake, or bluish lips or face, seek emergency medical care immediately. Call 911 or call ahead to your local emergency facility and notify the operator that you are seeking care for someone who has or may have COVID-19.

Avoid close contact with people who are sick, even inside your home. If possible, maintain 6 feet between the person who is sick and other household members.

Put distance between yourself and other people outside of your home: try to keep a minimum of 6 feet (about 2 arms lengths) from other people.

Avoid large groups of people whenever possible. Remember that some people without symptoms

Everyone should wear a cloth face cover when they must go out in public, such as when going to the grocery store or picking up other necessities.

Continue to keep about 6 feet between yourself and others. The cloth face cover is not a substitute for social distancing. The cloth face

cover is meant to protect others, not you, in case you are infected. You could spread COVID-19 to others even if you do not feel sick.

Because coronavirus is mainly spread through close contact, consider limiting the number of individuals you encounter and/or how frequently you meet. Consider choosing a small group of people and try to limit all in-person gatherings to only that group of friends or family.

Try rotating groups: keep a week or more between gatherings with different people to minimize the number of people you or your friends may expose if someone develops symptoms. Remember, some individuals may be positive but never develop symptoms, and others can take up to 14 days after an exposure to become symptomatic.

It is important not to become socially isolated during this time.

Continue reaching out through calls, texts and social media to stay connected.

Continue stricter protective measures if you are at high risk. If you are someone at high risk for developing complications related to COVID19 or routinely interact or live with individuals at high risk, you should continue limiting your exposure until there is an effective treatment or vaccine.

If you have questions please contact the IDPH COVID-19 hotline at 1-800-889-3931 or reach out to us.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Asking for cooperation during COVID-19 pandemic Dear Editor,

I am a concerned citizen and I hope that everyone will take a minute to consider my thoughts.

As a society we pay incredible sums of money to fund organizations of highly qualified Doctors, health care professionals, analysts, researchers, etc. at the World Health Organization (WHO) and Centers for Disease Control (CDC).

They have tracked numerous health events across the globe for years and have some of the best experience available in our time. Both organizations recommend social distancing and face masks. Both organizations agree that there will be no silver bullet to end the pandemic until a vaccine is administered across the globe.

We all agree that a destroyed economy will have far-reaching impacts that will also harm people. And so, we are left with the need to carefully re-open the economy and safely proceed with our day-to-day existence.

To reach this goal, I try my very hardest to maintain a social distance of 6 feet and to wear my mask in public when I will be around people. I perform both of these acts because the

experts tell us that we can be carriers, and therefore infect others, before we know we are sick.

This means that I wear my mask and distance socially for YOUR health and the health of YOUR family. I feel that I would be self-centered and irresponsible to ignore these simple guidelines.

I recently rounded the aisle at a store and came face-to-face with an unmasked shopper. Even though I am wearing my mask, I am put at high risk of contracting COVID if that unmasked person happened to be an asymptomatic carrier.

Additionally, I had a separate encounter at a different store, with an unmasked individual who goes from home to home servicing HVAC equipment. That person has an increased probability of becoming infected, because he is an essential worker and must be in homes to perform his job.

However, by not wearing a mask, his increased risk to become ill himself, has now created a potential exposure to me, store personnel and other patrons because he refused to wear a mask.

It is easy to imagine the impact of transmitting COVID-19 if either unmasked shopper were to encounter a health care worker headed to a

nursing home or to enter the home of a person who has at-risk complications.

For years, stores have posted notices stating; No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service.

People who refuse to wear a mask are putting the public at much greater risk than if they had no shirt or shoes.

Businesses who do not enforce the “no service” part of health care precautions are missing an important community service that could help stop the spread. I challenge all businesses to post a sign, which they will enforce, that reads; No Shirt, No Shoes, No Mask, No Service.

Additionally, for those essential workers that cannot avoid going into homes and coming in contact with clients, I challenge you to notify clients about your social distancing and mask policy, because they have a right to know that they may be risking exposure.

In closing, this is not a political issue or a violation of your rights. This is simply a request for cooperation that can save lives and help us move on to substantial economic recovery. I ask that you, please wear a mask, and please social distance!

Sincerely, Dave Boyles, Morrison

FULTON ATHLETICS

Fulton considering switch to a different athletic conference

BY ERIC INGLES eingles@saukvalley.com The Northwest Upstate Illini Conference has approached Fulton about leaving the Three Rivers Athletic Conference and joining the NUIC, it was revealed at Monday’s River Bend School District Board of Education meeting.

The NUIC roster of 11-man football-playing members has been depleted in recent months, with Amboy, AFC, Milledgeville, Orangeville and Aquin all choosing to play 8-man football for the 2021 season. They join Polo, another NUIC member that dropped 11-man football after the 2018 season and went on to win the 2019 8-man state championship.

Another NUIC school, Warren, left the conference after the 2018 season to co-op with Black Hawk High School in South Wayne, Wisconsin, playing football on a Wisconsin schedule and winning a Wisconsin state championship in 2019.

Those departures will leave the NUIC with nine teams only in 11-man football for the 2021 season, with just three in the South Division: Forreston, Eastland-Pearl City and West Carroll.

Discussions are in the early stages in Fulton. Should it make the move, it likely would not take effect until the 2023-24 school year.

an enrollment of 288 in the high school for the 2020-21 school year.

Fulton is fairly close in enrollment to potential NUIC football rivals Forreston (257), Eastland-Pearl City (330), Lena-Winslow (231), Galena (241) and Dakota (248).

Comparing the Three Rivers to the NUIC, for Fulton there would be little difference in driving distance, with an average road trip of 78.8 miles in the TRAC and 79.6 in the NUIC. The board did express some concern at the meeting that driving distances in the TRAC might increase if Monmouth-Roseville went from being a football-only member of the conference to a member in all sports.

Fulton to Monmouth-Roseville High School is an 87-mile trip one way.

Also a concern to the board would be the potential loss of rivalry games in football with Morrison and Newman, although a move could establish a new rivalry with West Carroll, just 17 miles up the road in Savanna.

The NUIC reached out to a few schools; Fulton is showing the most interest so far, and a formal invitation could come from the NUIC in the fall, Henrekin said.

If Fulton wanted to make the move, it would have to give the TRAC a 2-year notice, a policy put in place by the conference when Amboy made the same move following the 2015-16 school year.

In 2019, as in years past, your tap water met all USEPA and state drinking water health standards. Our system vigilantly safeguards its groundwater supply, and we are able to report that the department had no violations of a contaminant level or of any other water quality standard during the past year. This report summarizes the quality of water that we provided last year, including details about where your water comes from, what it contains, and how it compares to standards set by regulatory agencies. We are committed to providing you with this information because informed customers are our best allies. We invite you to participate in the decision-making processes that affect drinking water quality. Please feel welcome to attend any of our regularly scheduled City Council meetings and work sessions which are held at 7:00 PM on the second and fourth Mondays of each month at the Morrison Community Room located at 307 S. Madison Street. The City of Morrison Water Department will notify you immediately if there is any reason for concern about your drinking water.

Este informe contiene información muy importante sobre el agua que usted bebe. Tradúzcalo ó hable con alguien que lo entienda bien.

Source of Drinking Water

The sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and groundwater wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it can dissolve naturally occurring minerals and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity.

Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the USEPA’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline at (800) 426-4791.

Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. USEPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the USEPA’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800) 426-4791.

In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, USEPA prescribes regulations which limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. FDA regulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health.

Contaminants that may be present in source water include: • • • •

•

Micro contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations, and wildlife; Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, which may be naturally occurring or result from urban storm water runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farming; Pesticides and herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban storm water runoff, and residential uses; Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes and petroleum production, and may also come from gas stations, urban storm water runoff, and septic systems.

Radioactive contaminants, which can be naturally occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities.

Availability of Morrison Source Water Assessment

Below is a summary of the IEPA source water assessment of Morrison’s water system. The full report is available for viewing at City Hall.

Source Water Assessment

Based on information obtained from sampling data, the location of the wells relative to potential sources of contamination, and well depth, the Illinois EPA has determined that the Morrison Community Water Supply’s source water is not susceptible to contamination. As referenced above, this determination is based on a number of criteria including; monitoring conducted at the wells; monitoring conducted at the entry point to the distribution system; and available hydrogeologic data on the wells.

The Illinois EPA has determined that the Morrison Community Water Supply is not vulnerable to viral contamination. This determination is based upon the evaluation of the following criteria during the Vulnerability Waiver Process; the community’s wells are properly constructed with sound integrity and proper sitting conditions; a hydraulic barrier exists which should prevent pathogen movement; all potential routes and sanitary defects have been mitigated such that the source water is adequately protected; monitoring data did not indicate a history of disease outbreak; and the sanitary survey of the water supply did not indicate a viral contamination threat.

Because the community’s wells are constructed in a confined aquifer, which should prevent the movement of pathogens into the wells, well hydraulics were not considered a significant factor in the susceptibility determination. Hence, well hydraulics were not evaluated for this system ground water supply.

Source Water: Well 4 (11910) Well 5 (01855)

Source Water Protection Efforts

The Illinois Environmental Protection Act provided minimum protection zones of 200 feet for your wells. These minimum protection zones are regulated by the Illinois EPA. To further reduce the risk to source water, the Facility has implemented a wellhead protection program which includes the proper abandonment of potential routes of groundwater contamination and correction of sanitary defects at the water treatment facility. This effort resulted in the community water supply receiving a special exception permit from the Illinois EPA which allows a reduction in monitoring. The outcome of this monitoring reduction has saved the community considerable laboratory analysis costs.

Vulnerability waiver

Due to favorable monitoring history, aquifer characteristics, and inventory of potential sources of contamination, our water supply was issued a vulnerability waiver renewal for SOCs at Tap2 – Well number 11910 (Well #4).

No monitoring for SOCs were required, between January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2019.

2019 Water Quality Data

- Definition of Terms –

Action Level Goal (ALG): The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. ALGs allow for a margin of safety.

Action Level (AL): The concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements which a water system must follow.

Avg.: Regulatory compliance with some MCLs are based on running annual average of monthly samples Level 1 Assessment: A Level 1 assessment is a study of the water system to identify potential problems and determine (if possible) why total coliform bacteria have been found in our water system.

Level 2 Assessment: A Level 2 assessment is a very detailed study of the water system to identify potential problems and determine (if possible) why an E. coli MCL violation has occurred and/or why total coliform bacteria have been found in our water system on multiple occasions.

Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL): The highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible using the best available treatment technology.

Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG): The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety.

Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level (MRDL): The highest level of a disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is convincing evidence that addition of a disinfectant is necessary for control of microbial contaminants.

Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level Goal (MRDLG): The level of a drinking water disinfectant below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants to control microbial contaminants. n/a: Not Applicable mrem: millirems per year (a measure of radiation absorbed by the body) ppb: micrograms per liter or parts per billion – or one ounce in 7,350,000 gallons of water. ppm: milligrams per liter or parts per million – or one ounce in 7,350 gallons of water.

Treatment Technique (TT): A required process intended to reduce the level of a contaminant in drinking water.

Distribution

Lead and Copper

If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. We are responsible for providing high quality drinking water, but we cannot control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water has been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your water tested.

Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.

Triennial or Less Frequent Monitoring Footnote The state requires us to monitor certain contaminants less than once per year because the concentrations of these contaminants do not change frequently. Some of our data, though accurate, is more than one year old.

GROSS ALPHA (pCi/L) The MCL for Alpha emitters is 15 pCi/L. Certain minerals are radioactive and may emit a form of radiation known as alpha radiation. Some people who drink water containing alpha emitters in excess of the MCL over many years may have an increased risk of getting cancer.

COMBINED RADIUM (pCi/L) The MCL for Combined Radium is 5 pCi/L. Some people who drink water containing radium 226 or 228 in excess of the MCL over many years may have an increased risk of getting cancer.

IRON This contaminant is not currently regulated by USEPA. However, the state has set and MCL for this contaminant for supplies serving a population of 1000 or more.

SODIUM There is not a state or federal MCL for sodium. Monitoring is required to provide information to consumers and health officials that are concerned about sodium intake due to dietary precautions. If the level is greater than 20 mg/I, and you are on a sodium-restricted diet, you should consult a physician about this level of sodium in the water.

About the Data An MCL is the highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible using the best available treatment technology. If a facility exceeds the MCL, the facility must immediately investigate treatment options to reduce the level of the contaminant in the water supply. MCL’s are first based on a Reference Dose (RfD) which carries a very low risk of causing adverse health effects. The RfD is obtained by taking the maximum daily dose of a toxic substance that does not produce any observable adverse health effects. This no-observable-adverse-effect level (NOAEL) dosage is divided by safety factors (SF), to obtain the reference dose. Regulatory agencies generally use safety factor values of between 10 to 1,000.
