SUBJECT:
Annual Water Quality Report
Water Quality Report Certificate
of Completion and Distribution
DATE:
September 3, 2010
BACKGROUND:
Every year, in conformance with the Safe Drinking Water Act', the City of Owasso prepares and
distributes the Annual Water Quality Report to our customers in an effort to enable our citizens to
make practical and knowledgeable decisions about their health and the environment. The
report contains basic educational information on the water quality - including levels of any
detected contaminants, and compliance with drinking water rules. At a minimum, the report
must provide consumers with the following fundamental information;
➢ Lake, river, aquifer, or other source of the drinking water;
➢ A brief summary of the susceptibility to contamination of the local drinking water source,
based on the source water assessments that states are completing over the next five
years,
➢ How to get a copy of the water system's complete source water assessment;
➢ The level (or range of levels) of any contaminant found in local drinking water, as well as
EPA's health -based standard (maximum contaminant level) for comparison;
➢ The likely source of any contaminant in the local drinking water supply;
➢ The potential health effects of any contaminant detected in violation of an EPA health
standard, and an accounting of the system's actions to restore safe drinking water;
➢ The water system's compliance with other drinking water - related rules;
➢ Phone numbers of additional sources of information, including the water system and
EPA's safe drinking water hotline.
The City purchases water from the City of Tulsa, therefore Owasso's Water Quality Report uses
much of the educational information and monitoring data provided by the City of Tulsa. A copy
of the City of Owasso 2010 Water Quality Report is included as Attachment A.
The mandate also requires that the City mail or deliver a copy of the Water Quality Report to
each water customer, make an effort to deliver the report to non - bill - paying customers, and
provide copies of the report upon request. The City must send a copy of the Water Quality
Report to the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ) and submit a Certificate
Right -to -Know Amendment to Clean Water Act in (1996) requires that all owners of systems serving 25
residents or more or that have 15 service connections serving year round residents distribute such
report.
of Completion and Distribution by October 1, 2010. The Certificate confirms that the information
contained in the report is correct and that all distribution requirements have been met.
Compliance Status:
Staff confirms that the information contained in the City of Owasso 2010 Annual Water Quality
Report, completed in May 2010, is correct and consistent with compliance monitoring data
previously submitted to ODEQ. Copies of the report were distributed through utility bills on June
15th, June 25th and July 6th of 2010. In addition, the report may be viewed by visiting the City of
Owasso webpage2 or the offices of the Public Works Department at 301 West 2nd Avenue,
Owasso.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Trustee approval of the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality
Certificate of Completion and Distribution and authorization for the Chairman to execute all
necessary documents.

2010 ANNUAL WATER QUALITY REPORT
The City of Owasso is pleased to submit to you the 2010 Annual Water Quality Report. We take great pride in
providing you, our customer, with reliable and safe drinking water that meets all Federal and State regulations. Again
this year, parameters in our water are well below the maximum allowable levels.
Why are there contaminants in my drinking water?
Drinking water, including bottled water, may be expected to contain at least small amounts of contaminants. The
presence of these contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk. More information about
contaminants and potential health effects may be obtained by calling the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA)
Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800- 426- 4791). The sources of drinking water (both tap and bottled water) include
rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through
the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals and in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up
substances resulting from the presence of animals or human activity. Contaminants that may be present in water
prior to treatment include: Microbial contaminates which come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems,
agricultural livestock operations and wildlife. Inorganic contaminates are naturally- occurring or a result from urban
stormwater runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production and mining or farming.
Pesticides and herbicides come from a variety of sources such as agricultural urban stormwater runoff and residential
uses. Chemical contaminants include synthetic chemicals which are byproducts of industrial processes and
petroleum production that can come from gas stations, urban stormwater runoff and septic systems. Radioactive
contaminants are naturally occurring substances or the result of oil and gas production and mining activities. In order
to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the EPA prescribes regulations which limit the amount of certain
contaminants in water provided by public water systems. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations establish
limits for contaminants in bottled water, which provide protection for public health.
Is Owasso's water safe to drink?
YES! The City of Owasso and the City of Tulsa routinely monitor for constituents in your drinking water according to
Federal and State laws. In 2009, the City of Tulsa analyzed more than 2,300 samples looking for pollutants that
might be dangerous to your health and substances that can make the water taste or smell unpleasant. In addition,
the City of Owasso collected 300 samples throughout the distribution. The data tabulation table shows the results of
our monitoring for the period of January through December 2009.
What does the data mean?
As you can see by the table, the drinking water delivered to Owasso area homes and businesses exceeds all federal
requirements. Although some contaminants were detected in 2009, the EPA has determined that your water is safe
at these levels.
Where does Owasso's water come from?
Our water is purchased from the City of Tulsa. The water is treated surface water transported from three sources in
northeastern Oklahoma (Lake Oologah on the Verdigris River, Lake Spavinaw and Lake Eucha on Spavinaw Creek,
and Lake Hudson on the Neosho River). After the water reaches the lakes it travels to the Mohawk and A.B. Jewell
water treatment plants where it is treated to remove substances that might threaten public health.

Some people who drink water containing trihalomethanes 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. The risk assessment developed for trihalomethanes showed that those consuming 2 liters of water with 100 ppb
trihalomethanes for 70 years increased the likelihood of developing cancer by 1 in one million.

*Definitions of Terms Found in the Table:
MCL (Maximum Contaminant Level): The highest level of a contaminant allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible using the best available
treatment technology and taking cost into consideration. MCLs are enforceable standards.
MCLG (Maximum Contaminant Level Goal): The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin
of safety and are non - enforceable public health goals.
MRLD (Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level): The highest level of a disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is convincing evidence that addition of a disinfectant is
necessary for control of microbial contaminants.
MRDLG ( Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level Goal): The level of drinking water disinfectant below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MRDLGs do not
reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants to control microbial contaminants.
TT (Treatment Technique): A required process intended to reduce the level of a contaminant in drinking water.
AL (Action Level): The concentration of a contaminant, which if exceeded, triggers a treatment or other requirement which a water system must follow.
NTU (Nephelolometric Turbidity Unit): A measurement of the turbidity, or cloudiness, of the water. Turbidity has no health effects. However, turbidity can interfere with
disinfection and provides a medium for microbial growth. Turbidity may indicate the presence of disease - causing organisms. These organisms include bacteria, viruses, and
parasites that can cause symptoms such as nausea, diarrhea, and associated headaches.
mrem /yr (millirems per year): A measure of radiation absorbed by the body.
ppm (parts per million): Comparable to 1 minute in two years.
ppb (parts per billion): Comparable to 1 minute in 2,000 years.
