If the results of a monitoring sample analysis exceed the MCL, the water supplier shall collect one more sample from the same sampling point within two weeks of as soon as practical.An MCL violation occurs when the average (rounded off to the same number of significant figures as the MCL for the contaminant in question) of the two results exceed the MCL.
12 Million Fibers per Liter (MFL) -million fibers per liter is a measure of the presence of asbestos fibers that are longer than 10 micrometers 13 Micrograms per liter (ug/l) or parts per billion (ppb).14 If arsenic is detected above 5 ug/l, but below 10 ug/l (the MCL) your Annual Water Quality Report must contain the following statement: "NYS and EPA have promulgated a drinking water arsenic standard of 10 parts per billion.While your drinking water meets the standard for arsenic, it does contain low levels of arsenic.The 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 effect 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."Chloride is essential for maintaining good health.Research has not conclusively demonstrated that human exposure to chloride itself causes adverse health effects, although exposure to high levels of certain chloride salts has been associated with adverse health effects in humans.For example, high dietary intake of sodium chloride can be a contributing factor to high blood pressure, but this has been attributed mainly to the presence of sodium.The New York State standard for chloride is 250 milligrams per liter, and is based on chloride's effects on the taste and odor of the water.
Chlorite mg/l 1 0.8 By-product of drinking water disinfection at treatment plants using chlorine dioxide.
Some infants and young children who drink water containing chlorite in excess of the MCL could experience nervous system effects.Similar effects may occur in fetuses of pregnant women who drink water containing chlorite in excess of the MCL.Some people may experience anemia.Include the 90 th percentile value for the most recent sampling, the number range of detections, and the number of sites that exceeded the action level.If lead is detected above 15 ug/l (the Action Level) in more than 5%, but fewer than 10%, of the sites sampled [if your system samples fewer than 20 sites and has even one sample above the AL, you will need to include the standard explanation for an AL exceedance], your Annual Water Quality Report must include the following statement: "If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women, infants, and young children.It is possible that lead levels at your home may be higher than at other homes in the community as a result of materials used in your home's plumbing.[NAME OF UTILITY] 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 (1-800-426-4791) or at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead. "  Manganese is an essential nutrient that is necessary to maintain good health.However, exposure to too much manganese can cause adverse health effects.There is some evidence from human studies that long-term exposure to manganese in drinking water is associated with nervous system effects in adults (e.g., weakness, stiff muscles and trembling of the hands) and children (learning and behavior).The results of these studies only suggest an effect because the possible influences of other factors were not adequately assessed.There is supporting evidence that manganese causes nervous system effects in humans from occupational studies of workers exposed to high levels of manganese in air, but the relevance of these studies to long term drinking water exposure is less clear because the exposures were quite elevated and by inhalation, not by ingestion.Mercury (Inorganic) ug/l 2 2 Erosion of natural deposits; Discharge from refineries and factories; Runoff from landfills; Runoff from cropland.
Some people who drink water containing inorganic mercury well in excess of the MCL over many years could experience kidney damage.
Selenium ug/l 50 50 Discharge from petroleum Selenium is an essential nutrient.However, some people who drink water containing selenium in  Color has no health effects.In some instances, color may be objectionable to some people at as low as 5 units.Its presence is aesthetically objectionable and suggests that the water may need additional treatment.If the analytical results exceed the MCL, the water supplier shall collect another sample from the same sampling point, within 24 hours of the receipt of results or as soon as practical.An MCL violation occurs when the average of the two results exceeds the MCL.
