Removal Ratio>1*
*The monthly TOC removal ratio is calculated as the ratio between the actual TOC removal and the TOC rule removal requirements.The ratio is the average of the ratios for the 12
months in 2002.
Health Effects:Total organic carbon (TOC)has no health effects.However,total organic carbon provides a medium for the formation of disinfection byproducts.These byproducts
include trihalomethanes(THMs) and haloacetic acids (HAAs).Drinking water containing these byproducts in excess of the MCL may lead to adverse health effects,liver or kidney
problems or nervous system effects and may lead to an increased risk of getting cancer.
Units Description: Important Drinking Water Definitions:
NA:Not applicable MCLG:Maximum Contaminant Level Goal:The level of a MRDLG:Maximum residual disinfection level goal.The level
ND:Not detected contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known of a drinking water disinfectant below which there is no known
NR:Not reported or expected risk to health.MCLGs allow for a margin of safety. or expected risk to health.MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits
MNR:Monitoring not required,but recommended. MCL:Maximum Contaminant Level:The highest level of a of the use of disinfectants to control microbial contaminants.
MG/L:Number of milligrams of substance in one liter of water contaminant that is allowed in drinking water.MCLs are set as MRDL:Maximum residual disinfectant level.There is
close to the MCLGs as feasible using the best available convincing evidence that addition of a disinfectant is necessary
PPM:parts per million,or milligrams per liter(mg/L) treatment technology for control of microbial contaminants.
PPB:parts per billion,or micrograms per liter(pg/L)

indicator of the effectiveness of our filtration system.OF MONTHLY POSITIVE SAMPLES:Percent of
