Water News From Oregon’s Umatilla basin

Nitrates remain a problem in Oregon’s Umatilla basin

Do you live in the Umatilla area? If so you may know about this and wonder what you can do about it. According to this news from Water Tech, it is not getting better. A solution can be found at Clear Cool Water. See unit and links at bottom of this post.

PORTLAND, OR, January 21, 2011 (Water Tech) — According to the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), nitrate levels are still too high in the groundwater of the lower Umatilla basin despite efforts to reduce them, the East Oregonian reported.

The main sources of nitrates in the area include irrigated agriculture, confined animal feeding operations, septic systems, land application of food processing water and the Umatilla Chemical Depot’s bomb washout lagoons, the article stated.

A task force was formed in 1997 to deal with the problem, but nitrates in the groundwater remain high and are actually increasing in many wells in DEQ’s management area, according to the story.

“Looking at all the nitrogen data, I can say I’m pretty sure it’s not getting better,” said Phil Richerson, a DEQ hydrogeologist.

DEQ is in the process of forming a committee to implement a new action plan and will work with Oregon Department of Agriculture and the Umatilla County Soil and Water Conservation District to survey land practices at many of the affected wells, the story reported.

Multi-Pure’s  MP750 Plus RO has been certified by NSF International, under Standard 58, to reduce Nitrate/Nitrite.

How To Have Safe Great Tasting Water

The best water should have the natural minerals left in unless things like fluoride or arsenic is in your water.

We remove fluoride with the Multi-Pure 750  filter and have the unit 880 that has the increased capability to remove arsenic if it has been oxidized.

The name for this kind of arsenic is Arsenic V and your water test should tell you this. If you are on a well or your water is not chlorinated then the arsenic will probably not be oxidized and our model 880 will not remove all the arsenic.

Go to Clear Cool Water and get my special discount code first (please email me for the code-bob@clearcoolwater.com) then click on the filter you are interested in on Products at Clear Cool Water. If you add a filter to the cart then insert the discount code it will give you the special price from me.

I want to warn you that if you use a Reverse Osmosis filter or a Distiller for your drinking water that both remove the minerals that are in the water and you may end up depleted of the minerals you need to live. When the minerals are removed from the water the water becomes like a leach robbing your system of more minerals.

Also a Distiller will not remove all the Volatile Organic Chemicals because as the name implies, they are volatile and go with the water into the steam then are condensed back to a liquid with the water.

So, what have we accomplished with the distiller? We got rid of the minerals which are probably good for us unless we have some of the bad stuff and we did not get rid of the volatile organic chemicals or VOC’s which are things like pesticides, benzene, and other harmful products which may be in the water. See Performance Data Sheet for all the spec’s from the NSF which is the testing company for water related products, they are not related to Multi-Pure in any way.

Press Release – Presidents Team Recomends Home Filtration Systems

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Las Vegas, NV
10 A.M., May 18, 2010

 

To protect against cancer, President Obama’s team recommends home water filtration 

In its official annual report, the panel also recommends storing and transporting drinking water in non‐plastic containers such as stainless steel bottles.

“This is one of the easiest, and most inexpensive measures a family can take to protect against carcinogens” said Alvin E. Rice, President of Multi‐Pure International. “Water is the very essence of all life, clean water just makes good sense.” 

The President’s Cancer Panel is a three‐person body made up of distinguished scientists or physicians. It reports to President Obama on the development and execution of the National Cancer Program. 

The panel’s report, titled “Reducing Environmental Cancer Risks: What We Can Do Now” states, “Filtering home tap or well water can decrease exposure to numerous known or suspected carcinogens and endocrine‐disrupting chemicals.” The report goes on to highlight the added importance of protecting children. “To the extent possible, parents and child care providers should choose house products that will minimize children’s exposure to toxic substances.” 

In addition, the panel also suggests that contaminants can leach into water from plastic water bottles, and that the use of stainless steel or glass bottles can help reduce exposure to endocrine‐disrupting and other chemicals. 

Multi‐Pure International is one of the industry’s most respected manufacturers of water filtration systems and
components. In business since 1970, Multi‐Pure products feature the broadest NSF certified contaminant
reduction claims (NSF Std. 53). Its product selection includes stainless‐steel drinking water bottles. Multi‐Pure
International is headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Toxic pollution from abandoned chemical plant worse than previously thought.

Do you live in the affected area in this article? Do you know you and your family can be safe from this and many other pollutants without the high cost of bottled water?

DELAWARE CITY, March 16, 2010 (Water Tech) — New tests have revealed that pollution from a defunct chemical plant near Delaware City is much worse than officials previously believed, The News Journal reported.

Concentrations of benzene, a known carcinogen, in the groundwater around the former Metachem Products plant are thousands of times higher than the federal government’s drinking water safety limit, according to the story.

At least six other toxic chemicals were also found near the site, the article stated.

The abandoned plant is located above the Potomac aquifer, which provides drinking water to residents in Delaware, New Jersey, Maryland and Virginia, according to the report.

Scientists are unsure about how the contaminated water will travel underground, the article stated.
