Sandia Lab Receives $1 Million for Arsenic Rural Outreach Program
Environment News Service, November, 2005
ALBUQUERQUE, New Mexico (ENS) — --> New Mexico water systems do not have to deal with meeting new U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) arsenic standards on their own.
Sandia National Laboratories has received nearly $1 million from the U.S. Department of Energy to reach out to the approximately 80 communities in the state being affected by EPA regulations that will require arsenic levels in water supplies to be reduced from the current limit of 50 micrograms per liter (µg/L) to 10 µg/L.
Through the Sandia Arsenic Rural Outreach Program, during the next 16 months Sandia personnel will help identify community water systems’ needs, evaluate water chemistries, and help communities develop their own individualized solutions for reducing arsenic levels.
