In this video simulation, a homeowner will be reading a report on the water quality of his new well.  Of course, he can’t make heads or tails out of the numbers and needs your help.  Before you watch the video, download and open the water Quality Check Form.  While watching the video record the concentrations on the form.  For each constituent, look up the EPA primary and secondary drinking water standard and record it on the table. If a constituent does exceed a standard, indicate that with a yes or no or none, if no standard exists. For those constituents that exceed a standard, search the web for a possible treatment or filter and the URL where you found the information.  The homeowner will be very appreciative.
