City of Bonners Ferry – 2022 Annual Water Quality ReportWater System InformationCity of Bonners Ferry7232 Main Street, P.O. Box 149Bonners Ferry, Idaho 83805-0149Public Water System - ID#1110003Water Treatment Plant Operator – Andre Rosengrant Number of Connections – 1,396 Population Served – ~3,200This report is a summary of last year's water quality for the City of Bonners Ferry water system. Included are details about where your water comes from, what it contains, and how it compares to state and federal standards. We are committed to providing you with information because informed citizens are our best advocates. This report will not be mailed to our customers. However, printed copies may be picked up at Bonners Ferry City Hall. The report can be viewed online at www.bonnersferry.id.gov, by clicking on the Departments tab, then by clicking on the Utilities tab. The Consumer Confidence Report is listed on the Utilities page under the Water Department heading. Additionally, the public is welcome to attend the Bonners Ferry City Council meetings. Regular meetings are held on the first and third Tuesday of each month at 7:00 PM in Council Chambers at City Hall located at 7232 Main Street.Water SourcesThe City utilizes two surface water sources for their drinking water supply that require filtration and disinfection at the City's Water Treatment Plant (WTP). The primary source is Myrtle Creek, while the Kootenai River provides the City with a secondary source. The City also has a well as a third source. The City water system is also interconnected with the Cabinet Mountain Water District (CMWD), which utilizes groundwater wells adjacent to the Kootenai River. The Kootenai River, Well and the CMWD sources are rarely used by the City but do provide good emergency back-up sources. For questions regarding CMWD's Annual Water Quality Report, go to www.cmwd.org/reports/. Source Water Assessment and its availabilityThe Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) developed a Source Water Assessment for the City which can be obtained at City Hall. Definitions * Action Level: The concentration of a contaminant, which, if exceeded, triggers treatment, or other requirements that a water system must follow. * Initial Distribution System Evaluation (IDSE): IDSE is an important part of the Stage 2 Disinfection By-Products Rule (DBPR). The IDSE is a one-time study conducted by some water systems, providing disinfection or chlorination, to identify distribution system locations’ with concentrations of Trihalomethanes (THMs) and Haloacetic acids (HAAs). Water systems will use results from the IDSE, in conjunction with their Stage 1 DBPR compliance monitoring data, to select monitoring locations for Stage 2 DBPR. Not all water systems were required to perform an IDSE. * Maximum Contamination Level (MCL): The highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible using the best available treatment technology. * Maximum Contamination Level Goal (MCLG): The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety. * Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level (MRDL): The highest level of disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is convincing evidence that addition of a disinfectant is necessary for control of microbial contaminants. * Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level Goal (MRDLG): The level of a drinking water disinfectant below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants to control microbial contamination. * NTU – Nephelometric Turbidity Unit, an increment of turbidity measurement * ppb – Parts per billion; also equivalent ug/L * ppm – Parts per million; also equivalent to mg/L * Treatment Technique: A required process intended to reduce the level of a contaminant in drinking water. * Turbidity – A measure of water clarityHealth InformationSome people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections or other health issues. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)/Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1-800-426-4791 or http://www.epa.gov/safewater/hotline/. Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the EPA's Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1-800-426-4791 or http://www.epa.gov/safewater/hotline/.In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the EPA prescribes regulations which limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health.Contaminants that may be present in source water before we treat it include: * Microbial contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations, and wildlife. * Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, which can be naturally-occurring or result from urban storm water runoff, industrial, or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farming. * Pesticides and herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban storm water runoff, and residential uses. * Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes and petroleum production, and also can come from gas stations, urban storm water runoff, and septic systems. * Radioactive contaminants, which can be naturally-occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities.Level of Detected Contaminants and Associated Health Effect LanguageThe presence of contaminants in the water does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk. Unless otherwise noted, the data presented in this table is from testing done in the calendar year of the report. In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, EPA prescribes regulations which limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. Level of Detected Chemical and Radiological Contaminants and Associated Health Effects LanguageUnless otherwise noted, the data presented in this water quality table is from testing performed (January 1, 2013 - December 31, 2013).Disinfection and Disinfection Byproducts The City of Bonners Ferry uses chlorine as a disinfectant. Although chlorine quickly kills most bacteria, it is less effective against organisms such as viruses and parasites. For this reason, water needs to mix with chlorine for a longer time period to kill such organisms. The amount of time necessary, or the contact time, depends on the amount of disinfectant in the water and the temperature of the water. We routinely monitor for disinfectant residual in the distribution system. This measurement tells us whether we are effectively disinfecting the water supply. Disinfectant residual is the amount of chlorine or related disinfectant present in the pipes of the distribution system. If the amount of disinfectant is too low, organisms could grow in the pipes. Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level:To meet the Safe Drinking Water Act the City uses chlorine to disinfect your water. However, this also produces disinfection by-products that may be harmful when consumed at elevated quantities over extended periods of time. There are 2 separate sampling sites the city uses.Disinfection ByproductsSite 1-Kootenai Tribe Site 2-City Hall Lead Informational Statement (Health effects and ways to reduce exposure)If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. The City of Bonners Ferry 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 drinking 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 form the Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead. Lead and CopperTurbidity TestingTurbidity is a measure of the cloudiness of the water. We monitor it because it is a good indicator of water quality. Turbidity has no health effects. However, turbidity can interfere with disinfection and provide a medium for microbial growth. Turbidity may indicate the presence of disease causing organisms. These organisms include bacteria, viruses, and parasites which can cause symptoms such as nausea, cramps, diarrhea, and associated headaches. These symptoms are not caused only by organisms in drinking water. If you experience any of these symptoms and they persist, you may want to seek medical advice.Turbidity Results:Coliform Bacteria Monthly TestingColiform Samples are procured at four different sample sites from three different groups of sites that rotate every month. Group one sample sites are taken at the Community Hospital, City Hall and the local Forest Service office and 7193 Main St. Group two samples are taken at Boundary Tractor, the local Senior Apartments, Fire Station # 2 and the Panhandle Health Office. Group three samples are taken at the local Fire Station, Zip Trip, Shriner Building and The Kootenai Tribe. The City continues to optimize its filtration and disinfection processes with the goal of providing the best possible drinking water to its customers. Should you have any questions and/or comments about your drinking water, please contact either Andre Rosengrant or John Delaney at (208) 267-4380. Copies of this report are available at Bonners Ferry City Hall located at 7232 Main Street.Legal#11096AD#9345June 1, 2023
