    I’d be concerned about that .4mg/L sample on Aug 31 from the distribution system.

    If your house was built pre-2000, you should flush your cold water tap for a minute each morning anyway

    As disclosure, I work for my municipal waterworks and have direct training, knowledge, and experience on how the system operates and the lengths taken to both adhere to regulatory compliance and the steps taken when the treatment system fails to keep people safe. I also see all the problems that occur within that system and the resulting actions. My province had a terrible event occur decades ago, and rewrote the rules on providing safe drinking water to people. I see the requirements in place keeping the constant checks and balances on the system and the consequences for failure.

      Pre-1980 😵

      I’ll start doing this. I appreciate the insight.
