Inorganic compounds cyanide (ppb) 200 200 <10ppm <.10ppm   discharge from metal, plastic,& fertilizer factories. (no violation)
Copper (ppm) AL 1.3 1.3 .06-1.74ppm                  90th percentile result for the year 2004 1.18 ppm 5 out of 95 samples were above the AL.  The highest is 1.74ppm   corrosion of plumbing systems, erosion of natural deposits. Copper is an essential nutrient, but some people who drink water containing copper in excess of the action level over a relatively short amount of time could experience gastrointestinal distress. Some people who drink water containing copper in excess of the action level over many years could suffer liver or kidney damage. People with Wilson's Disease should consult their personal doctor. (Violation)
Lead (ppb) AL 15 0 0-27 ppb                The 90th percentile result for the year 2004 is 12ppb 6 samples out of 95 exceeded the AL. The highest is 27ppb   corrosion of plumbing systems, erosion of natural deposits. Infants and children who drink water containing lead in excess of the action level could experience delays in their physical or mental development. Children could show slight deficits in attention span and learning abilities. Adults who drink this water over many years could develop kidney problems or high blood pressure. (Violation)
