SCV Water Responds to Lowered Notification Level for PFAS Chemicals
SANTA CLARITA – The State Water Resources Control Board (Board) recently announced updated guidelines for local water agencies, including SCV Water, to follow in detecting and reporting the presence of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) in drinking water. The updated guidelines are part of the Board’s comprehensive effort to assess the scope of contamination of statewide drinking water supplies by PFOA and PFOS.
September is a busy month for those of us in a warm climate. Along with planting cool season flowers, fruits and vegetables, be sure to apply some fertilizer on plants and roses before the cool months get here. Carefully follow directions and avoid adding too much fertilizer. It’s not good for the plants and it is definitely not good for the environment as fertilizer in storm or irrigation run-off can affect water quality significantly.
