Got a Letter from the city yesterday and There have be high levels of Total Trihalomethanes (TTHM) MCL in the drinking water. Why the hell didn't they alert residents when the detected it not a year later this is absolutelt ridiculous!

City of Tempe, AZ : City Department News

Quote:
We routinely monitor for the presence of drinking water contaminants. We monitor for one group of contaminants, Total Trihalomethanes (TTHM), at eight monitoring stations spread across the city. Testing results from August 2016 to May 2017 show that site A-10 located in west Tempe on the southeast corner of Baseline Road and 48th Street recently exceeded the standard, or maximum contaminant level (MCL), for TTHM as an annual average during this period. The standard for TTHM is 80 parts per billion (ppb). It is determined by averaging all the samples collected at each sampling location for the past 12 months. The level of TTHMs averaged at site A-10 for August 2016 to May 2017 was 85ppb.

Maybe because it's 5 parts per BILLION over the limit.
