Your Water is in Good Hands Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District (JVWCD) performs regular testing of our water so you can be confident using the water from your tap. Based on the extensive testing we performed throughout 2023, we are in compliance with water quality standards established by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and state agencies. Additionally, our advanced treatment processes allow us to meet internal standards that are even more stringent than what is required by law. In addition to testing, JVWCD has developed state-approved groundwater and surface water protection programs for its water sources. These programs develop partnerships to prevent potential contamination of drinking water sources. JVWCD is proud of the quality water and service we provide every day.

Additionally we test for parameters above and beyond those required to ensure the water we provide is of the highest quality. These results are also included. Notes Annual monitoring isn’t required for parameters with ‘Last Sampled’ years marked with an ‘*’ since concen- tration levels are typically slow to change. Secondary Standards (SS or NSDWR) are non-enforceable guidelines regulating contaminants that may cause cosmetic effects (such as skin or tooth discoloration) or aesthetic effects (such as taste, odor, or col- or) in drinking water. EPA recommends secondary standards to water systems but does not require systems to comply with the standard. Scan the QR code to see a video of our testing process.

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 EPA Safe Drinking Water Hotline: (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. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline: (800) 426-4791. Cryptosporidium Cryptosporidium is a naturally-occurring, microscopic organism that may enter lakes and rivers from the fecal matter of humans or infected domestic and wild animals. When healthy adults are exposed to Cryptosporidium through the food or water they ingest, it can cause diarrhea, fever, and stomach pains. For individuals with compromised immune systems, exposure to Cryptosporidium may pose a more serious health threat. We are committed to providing protection against Cryptosporidium and other microorganisms by using a multi-barrier treatment approach. Although we are already meeting all EPA Cryptosporidium requirements with existing facilities and technologies, we will continue to pursue new technologies that may provide improved protection. Radon Radon is a colorless, odorless gas found naturally in soil. While it can be present in drinking water obtained from underground sources, it is not typically a concern for water from surface sources such as lakes and rivers. EPA estimates radon in drinking water contributes less than two percent to the total radon levels found in air is the most likely source for health concerns. Radon in water can escape into the air when showering or cooking. The amount of radon present in water provided by JVWCD (as listed in the water quality data table) is not considered a health concern. Lead 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. JVWCD is responsible for providing high quality drinking water, but 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 a or www.epa.gov/safewater/lead. EPA Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800) 426-4791 8&onsumer &onfidence 5eport 2023 New Lead (Pb) Regulations As always, JVWCD is committed to providing safe and reliable drinking water. We regularly test for lead in our water system and to date it has always been within acceptable limits. However, lead can get into water as it sits in or passes through the internal plumbing or fixtures of your home or business depending on the materials used and year of construction. Older buildings are more likely to have plumbing systems that contain lead. The EPA’s new Lead and Copper Rule Revisions require JVWCD to compile a database of service line materials on both the public and private side of the property line. Typically, JVWCD is responsible for the infrastructure from the water main to the water meter, and the homeowner is responsible for everything from the meter into their home. However, because we need to collect information about both the public and private sides, we will need your help gathering the information for this database. Please take the survey! Just scan the qr code below or visit jvwcd.org/water/leadandcopper Lead Service Lines The service line is the pipe that runs from the water main to the home’s internal plumbing. Lead service lines can be a source of lead contamination in water. Lead service lines are most commonly found in homes built before 1950. PRIVATE PROPERTY PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY JVWCD RESPONSIBILITY HOMEOWNER RESPONSIBILITY WATER MAIN WATER METER SERVICE LINE Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District9 Where might you find lead in your home? Lead Goose Necks Goose necks and pigtails are shorter pipes that connect a lead service line to the main. Galvanized Pipes Lead particles can attach to the surface of galvanized pipes. Over time, the particles can enter your drinking water, causing elevated lead levels. Fixtures Fixtures inside your home could contain lead, particularly brass faucets and fixtures installed before 2014. Copper Pipe Solder Copper pipes installed before 1986 typically used solder containing lead. 10&onsumer &onfidence 5eport 2023 Water quality questions waterquality@jvwcd.org (801) 446-2000 Billing/service questions (801) 565-4300 8215 South 1300 West • West Jordan, UT 84088 www.jvwcd.org Utah Public Water System #18027
