PRAIRIE ROAD WATER DISTRICT
NOTICE TO WATER CUSTOMERS
PRAIRIE ROAD WATER SUPPLY
01-10-11
PWS ID No LA 1073040
The Prairie Road Water District is currently in violation of the maximum contaminant level for total trihalomethanes (TTHMs) as set forth by the States (Part XII of the Louisiana State Sanitary Code) and the Federal Primary Water Regulations (40 CFR Part 141). Although this incident is not an emergency, as our customers, you have the right to know what happened and what we are doing to correct this situation.
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals (LDHH) set drinking water standards and require the disinfection of drinking water. Where disinfection is used in the treatment of drinking water, disinfectants combine with naturally occurring organic and inorganic matter present in water to form chemicals called disinfection byproducts (DBPs). The EPA and LDHH set standards for controlling the levels of disinfectants and DBPs in drinking water, including trialmethanes (THMs) Some people who drink water containing THMs in excess of the MCL over MANY YEARS may experience problems with liver, kidneys, or central nervous systems, and may have an increased risk of cancer. In December 1998, EPA set enforceable drinking water standard for TTHMs at 80 parts per billion (ppb) to reduce the risk of cancer or other adverse health effects. Compliance with the TTHM standard for all public ground water systems serving less than 10,000.00 individuals initially became effective and enforceable on January 1, 2004. Compliance with the TTHMs standard is determined by calculations a running annual average (RAA) of quarterly TTHMs sample results. Compliance calculations performed during the fourth calendar quarter of 2010 show that the system’s current TTHMs running annual average is 147 ppb thus, the system is currently in violation of the TTHMs standard.
Please share this information with all the other people who drink this water, especially those who may not have received this notice directly (for example, people in apartments, nursing homes, schools, and businesses). You can do this by posting this notice in a public place or distributing copies by hand or mail.
THIS IS NOT AN EMERGENCY if it had been, you would have been notified immediately. EPA and LDHH do not consider this violation to have any serious adverse health effects on human health as a result of short-term exposure; however, continued long-term exposure to TTHMs levels above the standard (e.g., 20 years of exposure) has the potential to have serious adverse effects on human health.
If you should have any questions please contact Ted Davidson, Operator at Prairie Road Water District, 2176 Prairie Road, Monroe, LA 71202; (318) 235-8461.

NOTICE
The Ouachita Parish School Board met in special session on Tuesday, November 16, 2010 at 12:00 o’clock noon at its regular meeting place, the Ouachita Parish School Board office.
The following members were present: Jack White, Scott Robinson, A. R. Sims, Jerry R. Hicks, John Russell, Susan Spence and Carey Walker. There were none absent.
The Pledge to the Flag was led by Board member Carey Walker.
The Invocation was given by Dr. Robert Webber.
On motion by Susan Spence, seconded by A. R. Sims, the Board unanimously approved the Minutes of November 2, 2010 as written.
On motion by Jerry Hicks, seconded by Susan Spence, the Board approved the revised Agenda after amending to add under IX.

Motion carried unanimously.
On motion by Susan Spence, seconded by A. R. Sims, the Board approved the Amended Personnel Agenda as presented, including the changes since it was mailed out. Motion carried unanimously.
Peggy Wheelis, Title I Supervisor, announced that our district is in the process of preparing for a visit from the Quality Assurance Review Team (SACS Accrediting Agency) on February 13 – 16 and asked the Board to save the date on their calendar because they will be involved with the process. In 2006 the Ouachita Parish District was the fifth district in the state to achieve accreditation and that accreditation is offered for a five year period. Our district has to go through the process again in 2010 and 2011. According to Mrs. Wheelis, the District Accreditation involves three components: (1) a self assessment; (2) host the quality assurance review team; and (3) monitor ourselves during the five-year interim period between their visits. In addition to those standards we have to meet, certain indicators must be met that consist of vision, mission and our district strategic plan. Mrs. Wheelis offered her assistance to the Board as she keeps them informed and aware of the process.
Business Manager Richie Garrett reminded the Board that Mr. White will be retiring from the Board December 31, 2010 and would need a Resolution authorizing his signature on all the school board checks until a new president can be elected and the check printing machines can be updated with the new president’s signature.

Motion carried unanimously.

The distributions will be as follows: Instructional - $1,624; 11 & 12 Month Support - $1,048 and 9 & 10 Month Support - $786.
