CHEMICAL | USEPA MCL | USEPA MCLG | SOURCES, DESCRIPTIONS | HEALTH EFFECTS | RECOMMENDATIONS FOR TREATMENT |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Beta/photon emitters (I) and (P) | 4millirems/year | Zero | Natural and man-made deposits | Health Effects: Cancer group A | Coagulation and Filtration, Ion Exchange, Reverse Osmosis |
Alpha (gross) | 15 Picocuries/l | Zero | Natural deposits | Cancer group A | Coagulation and Filtration, Reverse Osmosis |
Radium 226, and 228 (combined) | 5 Picocuries/l | Zero | Natural deposits | Cancer group A (226-Head Carcinomas, 228-Bone Cancer) | Lime Softening, Ion Exchange, Reverse Osmosis |
Radon | 400 to 3,000 pCi/l (Proposed) |
Zero | Natural deposits | Cancer group A. Effect of low levels of radon and of consumed (versus inhaled) radon is in dispute. High levels shown to cause lung cancer when inhaled. | Aeration |
