LEAD & COPPER RULE MONITORING AND REPORTING VIOLATION

MANDATORY LANGUAGE - TIER III

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR DRINKING WATER

RALSTON ACRES WATER SUPPLY CORPORATION (PWS 1010196) has violated the monitoring and reporting requirements set by Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) in Chapter 30, Section 290, Subchapter F.  Even though these were not emergencies, as our customers, you have the right to know what happened and what we are doing (or did) to correct these situations.

 We are required to monitor your drinking water for specific contaminants on a regular basis.  Results of regular monitoring are an indicator of whether or not our drinking water meets health standards.  During (52) 3YR2022 we did not monitor or test for LCR and therefore cannot be sure of the quality of your drinking water during that time.

 The table below lists the contaminant(s) we did not properly test for during the last year, how often we are supposed to sample for [these contaminants], how many samples we are supposed to take, how many samples we took, when samples should have been taken, and the date on which the follow-up samples were [or will be] taken.

What is being done? [corrective actions]:

We collected a complete set of lead and copper samples and returned to compliance as of 06/20/2022.

 We are working to correct the problem. For more information, please contact:

Mandatory Language for Monitoring and Reporting Violation

Chemical Sampling

                                                CHEMICAL MONITORING, ROUTINE MAJOR

 RALSTON ACRES WATER SUPPLY CORPORATION PWS ID 1010196 has violated the monitoring and reporting requirements set by Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) in Chapter 30, Section 290, Subchapter F.  Public water systems are required to collect and submit chemical samples of water provided to their customers and report the results of those samples to the TCEQ on a regular basis.

 We failed to monitor and/or report the following constituent and Monitoring Periods:

Contaminant Required Sampling Frequency Number of Samples Taken When samples should have been taken When samples were or will be taken
LCR Sample Tap 2021 5/Annually 0 JUNE 1, 2021 - SEPT 30, 2021 6/20/2022 RTCD

Results of regular monitoring are an indicator of whether or not your drinking water is safe from chemical contamination. We did not complete the monitoring and/or reporting for chemical constituents, and therefore TCEQ cannot be sure of the safety of your drinking water during that time.

 What is being done? We have provided the sample results for our chemical constituents to TCEQ in a timely manner and are no longer in violation as of 01/14/2022.

Please share this information with all people who drink this water, especially those who may not have received this notice directly (i.e., people in apartments, nursing homes, schools, and businesses). You can do this by posting this notice in a public place or distributing copies by hand or mail.
