�/ <br /> Elk River <br /> Municipal Utilities UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING <br /> TO: FROM: <br /> Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission Angela Hauge—Water Operator <br /> John Dietz—Chair Eric Volk—Water Superintendent <br /> Al Nadeau—Vice Chair <br /> Daryl Thompson—Trustee <br /> MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: <br /> June 10th, 2014 ; 5.3 <br /> SUBJECT: <br /> 2014 Water Quality Report(Consumer Confidence Report—CCR) <br /> DISCUSSION: <br /> The ERMU 2014 Water Quality Report has been added to our website and a notice that it's <br /> available to water customers will be sent out in this month's ERMU Connector. We are required <br /> by The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH)to include specific text on water quality and <br /> health information. Beyond the scope of water testing, we have the option of adding further <br /> topics for customer education and awareness. This year MDH allowed water suppliers the <br /> option of utilizing a web version as a primary media choice to post our CCR. By selecting that <br /> method, the water supplier must send customers a notice that tells them where to view the <br /> document. <br /> Topics such as: Water line freeze ups, locating curb-stops for water emergencies and water <br /> conservation rebates were the primary topics that were added to supplement the document. <br /> These topics have been most prevalent and will aid the audience in averting issues, and also <br /> saving water and money. <br /> We chose to create our Water Quality Report in the same style that we have used since 2008. <br /> Each year, since we changed to our current CCR printing company, we have printed and posted <br /> an annual copy to our website, with a web-ready version. Since the Water Quality Report <br /> requirements are a MDH standard, we had previously mailed the report to all of our water <br /> customers. This year, in an effort to reduce printing and mailing costs, we had 500 copies of the <br /> report printed for those customers that prefer, or need, the printed medium. This is a notable <br /> decrease in the number of reports we had printed in the past. In previous years we had between <br /> 4,500 - 6,500 copies of the report printed. <br /> Web Link to Current Water Quality Report: ERMU Water Quality Report <br /> �yorEOEO BY <br /> 3 Page 1 of 1 <br /> NATURE <br /> Reliable Public <br /> Power Provider P O W E R ED T o S E R V E <br /> 76 <br />
