NOTICE TO WATER CUSTOMERS
WEST HWY 80 – ARKANSAS ROAD WATER SUPPLY
06/14/2012
( PWS ID No. LA1073055 )
The West Hwy 80 – Arkansas Road Water System is currently in violation of the maximum contaminant level (MCL) for total trihalomethanes (TTHMs) as set forth by the State [Part XII of the Louisiana State Sanitary Code (LAC 51: XII)] and the Federal Primary Drinking Water Regulations (40 CFR Part 141).
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals (LDHH) sets drinking water standards and requires 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). EPA and LDHH set standards for controlling the levels of disinfectants and DBPs in drinking water, including trihalomethanes (THMs). Some people who drink water containing TTHMs in excess of the MCL over many years may experience problems with their liver, kidneys, or central nervous system, and may have an increased risk of getting cancer.
In December 1998, EPA set enforceable drinking water standards 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 ground water systems initially became effective and enforceable on January 1, 2004. Compliance with the TTHM standard is determined by calculating a running annual average (RAA) of quarterly TTHMs sample results. Compliance calculations preformed during the first calendar quarter of 2012 show that the system’s current TTHMs RAA is 86 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 potential to have serious adverse effects on human health.
Greater Ouachita Water Company recently exceeded the limit for THMs. In order to get back in compliance, Greater Ouachita has changed the treatment process from free chlorine to chloramines. In an effort to continue to be in compliance and improve water quality, Greater Ouachita is currently investigating adding granular activated carbon to the treatment process.

NOTICE OF EXPLANATION
Final Notice and Public Explanation of a Proposed Activity in Floodplain and Wetland
All interested Agencies, Groups and Individuals
This is to give notice that the Ouachita Parish Police Jury under part 58 is conducting an evaluation as required by Executive Order 11988 and 11990, in accordance with HUD regulations at 24 CFR 55.20 Subpart C Procedures for Making Determinations on Floodplain Management, to determine the potential affect that its activity in the floodplain and wetland will have on the human environment for the Ouachita Parish Police Jury’s Gustav/Ike Disaster Recovery Program for the H-1 Canal Drainage Improvements.
The objective of this project is to improve the existing cross drain pipes, roadway patching, and related items at Stubbs Vinson Road, Stubbs Richie Road, and Cleveland Road. Implementing the proposed improvements will help prevent flooding in this area during future storm events. The total approximate drainage basin is 3,453 acres in size. All existing cross drains will be installed inside existing road right-of-way or utility easements. The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers has indicated there may be wetlands involved.
The Ouachita Parish Police Jury has considered the following alternatives and mitigation measures to be taken to minimize adverse impacts and to restore and preserve natural and beneficial values:
Alternative Number One: Construct drainage improvements to the H-1 Canal as described above.
Mitigation Action: Since there would be no adverse impacts created by this action, no mitigation measures would be necessary. This action was chosen because of practicality of time and cost.
Alternative Number Two: Take no action. This is not an acceptable alternative due to the continued deterioration of the existing drainage canal.
Mitigation Action: None
The Ouachita Parish Police Jury has reevaluated the alternatives to building in the floodplains and wetlands and has determined that it has no practicable alternative. Environmental files that document compliance with steps 3 through 6 of Executive Order 11988 and 11990, are available for public inspection, review and copying upon request at the times and location delineated in the last paragraph of this notice for receipt of comments. This activity will have no significant impact on the environment for the following reason: the work only involves improvements to existing cross drain pipes, roadway patching, and related items at Stubbs Vinson Road, Stubbs Ritchie Road, and Cleveland Road.
There are three primary purposes for this notice. First, people who may be affected by activities in floodplains and wetlands and those who have an interest in the protection of the natural environment should be given an opportunity to express their concerns and provide information about these areas. Second, an adequate public notice program can be an important public educational tool. The dissemination of information about floodplains and wetlands can facilitate and enhance Federal efforts to reduce the risks associated with the occupancy and modification of these special areas. Third, as a matter of fairness, when the Federal Government determines it will participate in actions taking place in floodplains and wetlands, it must inform those who may be put at greater or continued risk.
Written comments must be received by the Police Jury at the following address on or before June 21, 2012: Ouachita Parish Police Jury, Post Office Box 3007, Monroe, Louisiana, 71210-3007, Attention: Shane Smiley, President, during the hours of 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM Comments may also be submitted via email at bcammack@oppj.org

The proposed project includes improvements to Sub-Basin Number 1 and Sub-Basin Number 2. The proposed work within Sub-Basin Number 1 includes removal of vegetation and debris within Pine Bayou and regrading from Ticheli Road to the Pine Bayou outfall at Youngs Bayou. The project also includes improvements in Sub-Basin Number 2 which is located north of Sub-Basin Number 1 and consists of an area west and east of U.S. Highway 165 and South of Interstate 20. The proposed project will consist of improvements to J-1E canal, existing cross drain pipes, roadway patching, and related items at Sycamore Street and east of U.S. Highway 165. Implementing the proposed improvements will help prevent flooding in this area during future storm events. The project will benefit residents that live within the Sub-Basin Number 1 and Sub-Basin Number 2. The total approximate drainage basin is 1,840 acres in size. It will be necessary to secure servitudes so that the proposed construction can be performed. The U. S. Army Corps of Engineers has indicated there may be wetlands involved.
