Annual Drinking Water Quality ReportLakeview Water Company 2023UTAH 29024We are pleased to present to you this year's Annual Drinking Water Quality Report. This report is designed to
inform you about the quality of the water and services we deliver to you every day. Our constant goal is to provide you with a safe and dependable supply of drinking water. We want you
to understand the efforts we make to continually improve the water treatment process and protect our water resources. We are committed to ensuring the quality of your water. Our water
sources have been determined to be from groundwater sources. Our water sources are Mitchell Well and Bowden Well. The Drinking Water Source Protection Plan forLakeview Water Companyis
available for your review.It contains information about source protection zones, potential contamination sources and management strategies to protect our drinking water.Our sources have
been determined to have a low level of susceptibility from potential contamination from sources.We have also developed management strategies to further protect our sources from contamination.Please
contact us if you have questions or concerns about our source protection plan.
There are many connections to our water distribution system.When connections are properly installed and maintained, the concerns are very minimal.However, unapproved and improper piping
changes or connections can adversely affect not only the availability, but also the quality of the water.A cross connection may let polluted water or even chemicals mingle into the water
supply system when not properly protected.This not only compromises the water quality but can also affect your health.So, what can you do?Do not make or allow improper connections at
your homes.Even that unprotected garden hose lying in the puddle next to the driveway is a cross connection.The unprotected lawn sprinkler system after you have fertilized or sprayed
is also a cross connection.When the cross connection is allowed to exist at your home, it will affect you and your family first.If you’d like to learn more about helping to protect the
quality of our water, call us for further information about ways you can help.This report shows our water quality and what it means to you, our customer. If you have any questions about
this report or concerning your water utility, please contact Chad Kramer 801-718-2827.We want our valued customers to be informed about their water utility. If you want to learn more,
please contact our office for more information or visit our website at www.lakeviewwatercorp.com.Lakeview Water Companyroutinely monitors for constituents in our drinking water in accordance
with the Federal and Utah State laws. The following table shows the results of our monitoring for the period of January 1st to December 31st, 2023.All drinking water, including bottled
drinking water, may be reasonably expected to contain at least small amounts of some constituents.It's important to remember that the presence of these constituents does not necessarily
pose a health risk. In the following table you will find many terms and abbreviations you might not be familiar with. To help you better understand these terms we've provided the following
definitions:Non-Detects (ND) - laboratory analysis indicates that the constituent is not present.ND/Low - High - For water systems that have multiple sources of water, the Utah Division
of Drinking Water has given water systems the option of listing the test results of the constituents in one table, instead of multiple tables. To accomplish this, the lowest and highest
values detected in the multiple sources are recorded in the same space in the report table. Parts per million (ppm) or Milligrams per liter (mg/l) - one part per million corresponds
to one minute in two years or a single penny in $10,000.Parts per billion (ppb) or Micrograms per liter (ug/l) - one part per billion corresponds to one minute in 2,000 years, or a single
penny in $10,000,000. Parts per trillion (ppt) or Nanograms per liter (nanograms/l) - one part per trillion corresponds to one minute in 2,000,000 years, or a single penny in $10,000,000,000.Parts
per quadrillion (ppq) or Picograms per liter (picograms/l) - one part per quadrillion corresponds to one minute in 2,000,000,000 years or one penny in $10,000,000,000,000.Picocuries
per liter (pCi/L) - picocuries per liter is a measure of the radioactivity in water.Millirems per year (mrem/yr) - measure of radiation absorbed by the body.Million Fibers per Liter
(MFL) - million fibers per liter is a measure of the presence of asbestos fibers that are longer than 10 micrometers.Nephelometric Turbidity Unit (NTU) - nephelometric turbidity unit
is a measure of the clarity of water. Turbidity in excess of 5 NTU is just noticeable to the average person.Action Level (AL) - the concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded,
triggers treatment or other requirements which a water system must follow.Treatment Technique (TT) - A treatment technique is a required process intended to reduce the level of a contaminant
in drinking water.Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) - The “Maximum Allowed” (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.Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG) - The “Goal”(MCLG) is 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. Date- Because
of required sampling time frames i.e. yearly, 3 years, 4 years and 6 years, sampling dates may seem outdated.Waivers (W)- Because some chemicals are not used or stored in areas around
drinking water sources, some water systems have been given waivers that exempt them from having to take certain chemical samples, these waivers are also tied to Drinking Water Source
Protection Plans.

Microbiological Contaminants:
Turbidity. Turbidity has no health effects. However, turbidity can interfere with disinfection and provide a medium for microbial growth. Turbidity may indicate the presence of disease-causing
organisms. These organisms include bacteria, viruses, and parasites that can cause symptoms such as nausea, cramps, diarrhea, and associated headaches.While your drinking water meets
EPA's standard for arsenic, it does contain low levels of arsenic. EPA's standard balances the current understanding of arsenic's possible health effects against the costs of removing
arsenic from drinking water. EPA continues to research the health effects of low levels of arsenic which is a mineral known to cause cancer in humans at high concentrations and is linked
to other health effects such as skin damage and circulatory problems.Water samples taken in October 2021 confirmed the presence of total coliform bacteria. Total coliforms are common
in the environment and are generally not harmful themselves. The presence of these bacteria is usually a result of a problem with water treatment or the pipes which distribute the water
and indicates that the water may have been contaminated with organisms that can cause disease. Symptoms may include diarrhea, cramps, nausea, and possible jaundice, and any associated
headaches and fatigue. When the monthly samples confirmed the presence of total coliform bacteria, we took steps to identify and correct the problem. Subsequent monthly sampling has
confirmed the absence of total coliforms in the water system.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. Lakeview Water Companyis 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 at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.All
sources of drinking water are subject to potential contamination by constituents that are naturally occurring or manmade.Those constituents can be microbes, organic or inorganic chemicals,
or radioactive materials.All 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 the water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Protection
Agency’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1-800-426-4791.MCLs are set at very stringent levels. To understand the possible health effects described for many regulated constituents, a person
would have to drink 2 liters of water every day at the MCL level for a lifetime to have a one-in-a-million chance of having the described health effect.Total Coliform: The Total Coliform
Rule requires water systems to meet a stricter limit for coliform bacteria. Coliform bacteria are usually harmless, but their presence in water can be an indication of disease-causing
bacteria. When coliform bacteria are found, special follow-up tests are done to determine if harmful bacteria are present in the water supply. If this limit is exceeded, the water supplier
must notify the public by newspaper, television or radio. To comply with the stricter regulation, we have increased the average amount of chlorine in the distribution system.Some people
may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immunocompromised 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
from their health care providers about drinking water. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by cryptosporidium and other microbiological contaminants
are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline [phone]).We at Lakeview Water Companywork around the clock to provide top quality water to every tap.We ask that all our customers
help us protect our water sources, which are the heart of our community, our way of life and our children’s future.
