The revised arsenic maximum contaminant level (MCL) of 0.010 mg/L is expected to impact
many water utility systems, particularly those in western states, where high levels of naturally occurring
arsenic are more common. An Army installation was faced with treating
groundwater (GW) to reduce arsenic and fluoride concentrations. Various water treatment
technologies were evaluated based on engineering, economic, and regulatory criteria. Water
conservation and source water quality issues also impacted treatment technology selection.
Ultimately, activated alumina was deemed most feasible, and will be pilot tested to verify
arsenic and fluoride removal efficiencies and to develop full-scale design data. Includes 12 references, tables.
