Commission to request five-year pH trend and site location from Mintek
Summary
The commission reviewed an annual report from Mintek showing pH readings that a commissioner described as high; Commissioner Matt Freund said he will request a running tally, a five-year trend, and the site location to better assess the significance.
The commission received an annual report letter from Mintek. Commissioner Matt Freund said the data in the letter suggested pH readings that "seem high" and asked for more context to determine whether this is an anomaly or part of a trend.
Freund said he will request a running tally and a five-year trend of readings and will ask Mintek to identify the sampling site locations. The commission noted that without prior-year reports it is difficult to assess change over time and directed Mr. Freund to request the additional data for follow-up analysis.
No enforcement action or new sampling protocol was adopted at the meeting; the item was recorded as correspondence and slated for further information gathering.
