Lake Arrowhead officials flag PFAS reduction in wastewater, note high interest in filter rebate
Summary
General Manager Catherine Cerri told the Executive Committee that recent wastewater samples show a reduction in PFAS and that 87 requests have been made for the District's PFAS removal filter rebate; blending with CLAWA suggests the PFAS is originating in Lake Arrowhead drinking water.
General Manager Catherine Cerri said the Executive Committee received an update showing recent wastewater samples "showed a reduction of PFAS," and she linked that finding to the District's blending with CLAWA, saying "this is a good indication that the PFAS in the wastewater is coming from the drinking water in Lake Arrowhead." The committee discussed the implications for ongoing sampling and customer outreach.
Cerri also highlighted public interest in the District's PFAS removal filter rebate: "As of last week, there had been 87 requests for reimbursement." The committee did not take a formal action at the Executive Committee meeting; these items were presented as part of the preview for the upcoming board meeting where any program changes or further authorizations would be considered.
