ABSTRACT
With the lowering of the EPA maximum contaminant level of arsenic from 50 parts per
billion (ppb) to 10 ppb, many public water systems in the country and in New Mexico in
particular, are faced with making decisions about how to bring their system into
compliance. This document provides detail on the options available to the water
systems and the steps they need to take to achieve compliance with this regulation.
Additionally, this document provides extensive resources and reference information for
additional outreach support, financing options, vendors for treatment systems, and
media pilot project results.3
