The next Quiet Zone public forum will be at the Camanche Public Library on Thursday October 17th at 10AM. All are welcome to attend. This will be interactive with a presentation and anonymous survey. We will then open the discussion for citizen input and feedback. We look forward to seeing you there. We will schedule a few more events so people with different hours of availability have the chance to attend. Seating may be limited. The address is 102 12th Ave
Below is a copy of the testing results for the Camanche water supply as it pertains to PFAS/PFOS in the system. We are pleased to annouce that all of the testing came back with no detectable levels of these chemicals. This is due to the operation drawing from our existing deep well (#5) which was recently outfitted with a new and stronger pump.
Work continues on well #7 which will draw from the same aquifer as well #5. Once functional, the two shallow wells which contain the forever chemicals will be capped and off of the Camanche water system permanently.
There is a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page to discuss the PFAS public notice and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) / 3M memorandum which was recently released. Click the button below for more information. Please visit the FAQ page for the most up to date information including press releases and other data.
