LEAD & COPPER RULE MONITORING AND REPORTING VIOLATION MANDATORY LANGUAGE – TIER III
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR DRINKING WATER
HCMUD 43 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 January – June 2023 we did not complete all monitoring or testing for Water Quality Parameters 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. Contaminant | Required sampling frequency | Number of samples taken | When samples should have been taken | When samples were or will be taken |
| Water Quality Parameters – Distribution System | 6 Samples | 0 | January – June 2023 | July – December 31 2023 |
| Water Quality Parameters – Entry Point to the Distribution System | 2 Samples | 0 | January – June 2023 | July – December 31 2023 |
