Since the beginning, the Village of Lake Orion’s goal has been to produce the safest and highest quality drinking water for all its customers.
To maintain its commitment, the City of Detroit’s analysts routinely collect and test water samples from the source waters right to customers’ homes, checking purity and identifying potential problems.
Treatment plants are constantly maintained, evaluated and upgraded to stay abreast of advancements in technology, health science, and government regulations.
A water quality lab is the heart of the quality assurance program. Staffed by highly trained scientists and technicians, the state-certified lab has the latest most sophisticated instruments and can measure substances down to one part in a billion.
SAFE DRINKING WATER ACT
Under the Safe Drinking Water Act, EPA is responsible for setting national limits for hundreds of substances in drinking water and also the consumer receiving clean water and verifying that states are enforcing the laws that regulate drinking water.
Federal regulation requires water utilities provide detailed water quality information to each of their customers annually.
Public input and comments regarding drinking water may be sent to the Village of Lake Orion at 37 East Flint Street Lake Orion, MI, 48362. Or comments may be expressed in person at the Village Hall or at Village Council meetings on the second and fourth Monday of each month, excluding holidays.
For more information or any questions, contact John Ranville. LO Superintendent of Public Works at 248-693-1463.
WHERE DOES MY WATER COME FROM?
Village customers are fortunate because they enjoy an abundant watersupply from the Detroit Water System. The Village receives its water from the Detroit Water Treatment Plant north of Port Huron.
The plant draws water from Lake Huron into the plant for treatment through a 16-foot diameter tunnel which extends five miles out into Like Huron at average depth of 190 feet and is 45 feet deep at the intake.
The water is then treated and pumped through the system to Orion Township and to the Village and other communities.
Detroit also has four other surface water treatment plants which are interconnected and provide water to the Village though these plants, should the need arise.
SUBSTANCES EXPECTED TO BE IN DRINKING WATER
Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain some contaminants. The presence of contaminants doesn’t necessarily indicate that water poses a health risk.
The sources of drinking water (both tap and bottled water) include rivers, takes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring materials and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from human activity.
Contaminants that may be present in source water include: microbial contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations and wildlife; inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, which can be naturally occurring or result from urban stormwater runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining or farming; pesticides and herbicides which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban stormwater, runoff and residential uses; organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organics, which are by-products of industrial and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater runoff and septic systems; and radioactive contaminants which can be naturally occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities.
In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the EPA prescribes regulations, which limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. The Food and Drug Administration regulates established limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health water.
Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised people such as people with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, people who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/ AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly and infants can be particularly at risk from infections.
These people should seek advice from their healthcare providers about drinking water. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporodium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline. (800-426-4791).
HOW WILL I KNOW IF THERE’S A PROBLEM WITH MY WATER?
If the amount of contaminants exceeds a predetermined safe level in your drinking water (MCL, Action Level, etc.), people will be notified via newspapers, radio, TV and other means within 24 hours.
With the notification, citizens will be instructed on what appropriate actions they should take to protect themselves and their family’s health.
WHAT’S IN MY WATER?
The water delivered to Village homes and businesses this past year complied with, or did better than all state and federal drinking water requirements.
Village officials have compiled a list in the table showing what substances were detected in the drinking water during 2001. All the substances listed are under the Maximum Contaminant Level set by US EPA and not expected to cause any health risks.
TERMS AND ABBREVIATIONS:
* Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL): The highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as possible using the best available treatment technology.
? Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG): The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected health risk.
? Action Level (AL): The concentration of a contaminant which when exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements which a water system must follow.
? N/A: Not applicable
? ND: Not detected
? ppb: parts per billion or micrograms per liter
? ppm: parts per million or milligrams per liter.

5. The Bonds shall be executed in the name of the Village with the manual or facsimile signatures of the President and the Village Clerk and shall bear the Village seal or a facsimile of the Village seal. No Bond shall be valid until authenticated by an authorized signature of the paying agent.
The Bonds shall be delivered to the paying agent for authentication and be delivered by the paying agent to the purchaser in accordance with instructions from the Treasurer of the Village upon payment of the purchase price for the Bonds in accordance with the bid therefor when accepted. Executed blank bonds for registration and issuance to transferees shall simultaneously, and from time to time thereafter as necessary, be delivered to the paying agent for safekeeping. The principal of the Bonds shall be payable at the corporate trust office of Standard Federal-Corporate and Institutional Trust, a division of LaSalle Bank National Association, Troy, Michigan (the “paying agent’) at the time the bonds are sold. In the event the Bonds are not held in book-entry only form, then the paying agent shall also act as bond registrar and transfer agent. The paying agent may be changed by the Village upon notice to bondholders not less than sixty (60) days prior to an interest payment date. The Village Treasurer is authorized to enter into an agreement with the paying agent with respect to the registration, paying and payment of the Bonds.

In the event the Issuer determines that the continuation of the system of book-entry-only transfer through DTC (or successor securities depository) is not in the best interest of the Issuer, the Issuer will notify the paying agent, whereupon the paying agent will notify DTC of the availability through DTC of the bond certificates. In such event, the Issuer shall issue and the paying agent as transfer agent shall transfer and exchange bonds as requested by DTC of like principal amount, series and maturity, in authorized denominations to the identifiable beneficial owners in replacement of the beneficial interest of such beneficial owners in the Bonds.
6. Any Bond may be transferred upon the books required to be kept by the paying agent pursuant to this section by the person in whose name it is registered, in person or by the registered owner’s duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of the Bond for cancellation, accompanied by delivery of a duly executed written instrument of paying in a form approved by the paying agent. Whenever any Bond or Bonds shall be surrendered for paying, the Village shall execute and the paying agent shall authenticate and deliver a new Bond or Bonds, in like aggregate principal amount.

8. Pursuant to Act 175, and as additional security for the prompt payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds, there is hereby irrevocably pledged the limited tax full faith and credit of the Village, and in the event of insufficiency of funds primarily pledged to the payment thereof, the Village covenants and agrees to pay principal of and interest on the Bonds from its general funds, including the levy of ad valorem taxes on all taxable property in the Village to the extent necessary to make such payment, subject, however, to constitutional, statutory and charter tax rate limitations.

PURPOSE AND SECURITY: The bonds are being issued pursuant to the provisions of Act 175, Public Acts of Michigan, 1952, as amended (the “Act”), for the purpose of defraying costs of acquiring and constructing certain improvements to the North Shore Bridge in the Village and are issued in anticipation of Michigan Transportation Fund (the “Fund’) payments from the State of Michigan to be received by the Village. The bonds are not general obligations of the State of Michigan. The bonds will pledge the limited tax full faith and credit of the Village as additional security for payments of the principal and interest thereon. If the payments from the Fund are insufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the bonds, then the Village is obligated to make such payments as a first budget obligation from its general funds, including any collections of ad valorem taxes it may be authorized to levy, but the ability of the Village to levy such taxes is subject to constitutional, statutory and charter tax rate limitations. The Village has the right to issue additional bonds payable from Fund payments within the limitations prescribed by law. The rights or remedies of bondholders may be affected by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, now existing or hereafter enacted, and by the application of general principles of equity, including those relating to equitable subordination.
GOOD FAITH: A certified or cashier’s check drawn upon an incorporated bank or trust company or a Financial Surety Bond, in the amount of $1,750, and payable to the order of the Treasurer of the Village is required for each bid as a guaranty of good faith on the part of the bidder, to be forfeited as liquidated damages if such bid be accepted and the bidder falls to take up and pay for the bonds. If a check is used, it must accompany each bid. If a Financial Surety Bond is used, it must be from an insurance company licensed to issue such a bond in the State of Michigan and such Bond must be submitted to Bendzinski & Co., Municipal Finance Advisors, prior to the opening of the bids. The Financial Surety Bond must identify each bidder whose good faith deposit is guaranteed by such Financial Surety Bond. If the bonds are awarded to a bidder utilizing a Financial Surety Bond, then that purchaser (the “Purchaser”) is required to submit its good faith deposit to the Village or its financial advisor in the form of a cashier’s check (or wire transfer such amount as instructed by the Village or its financial advisor) not later than Noon, Prevailing Eastern Time, on the next business day following the award. If such good faith deposit is not received by that time, the Financial Surety Bond may be drawn upon by the Village to satisfy the good faith deposit requirement. The good faith deposit will be applied to the purchase price of the bonds. In the event the Purchaser fails to honor its accepted bid, the good faith deposit will be retained by the Village. No interest shall be allowed on the good faith check and checks of the unsuccessful bidders will be returned to each bidder’s representative or by overnight courier service. The good faith check of the successful bidder will be cashed and payment for the balance of the purchase price of the bonds shall be made at the closing.
AWARD OF BONDS: The bonds will be awarded to the bidder whose bid produces the lowest true interest cost determined in the following manner: the lowest true interest cost will be the single interest rate (compounded on __, 2003 and semi-annually thereafter) necessary to discount the debt service payments from their respective payment date to __, 2003, in an amount equal, to the price bid, excluding accrued interest.
TAX MATTERS: In the opinion of bond counsel, assuming compliance with certain covenants, interest on the bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes as described in the opinion, and the bonds and interest thereon are exempt from all taxation in the State of Michigan except inheritance and estate taxes and taxes on gains realized from the sale, payment or other disposition thereof. The successful bidder will be required to furnish, prior to the delivery of the bonds, a certificate in a form acceptable to bond counsel as to the “issue price” of the bonds within the meaning of Section 1273 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
“QUALIFIED TAX EXEMPT OBLIGATIONS”: The Village has designated the bonds as “qualified tax exempt obligations” for purposes of deduction of interest by financial institutions.
LEGAL OPINION: Bids shall be conditioned upon the approving opinion of Miller, Canfield, Paddock and Stone, P.L.C., attorneys or Detroit, Michigan, a copy of which opinion will be furnished without expense to the purchaser of the bonds at the delivery thereof. The fees of Miller, Canfield, Paddock and Stone, P.L.C. for services rendered in connection with such approving opinion are expected to be paid from bond proceeds. Except to the extent necessary to issue its approving opinion as to validity of the above bonds, Miller, Canfield, Paddock and Stone, P.L.C. has not been requested to examine or review and has not examined or reviewed any financial documents, statements or materials that have been or may be furnished in connection with the authorization, issuance or marketing of the bonds, and accordingly will not express any opinion with respect to the accuracy or completeness of any such financial documents statements or materials.

Flushing is necessary for proper maintenance of the water system. During this time, customers of the Village Water System may experience low water pressure. Also, the flushing of the water mains may loosen sediment in the system, which in turn may end up at the user end point, which is your faucet.
Customers are urged to check water clarity before using it for laundry or other similar uses. If you experience rusty to black colored water, flush your water lines with either a washtub faucet or a bathtub faucet for 10 minutes or until the water is clear. Small faucets will clog if used. Flushing your system will clear out any sediment which has made its way to your home.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Sewer Charge Reduction
Residential properties using water for watering lawns and/or filling a swimming pool are entitled to a reduction from sewer charges for the quarter ending September 30. To apply for the reduction you need to file the necessary affidavit each year. An affidavit form is available at the Village office during regular business hours (M-F 9:00 a.m. ? 4:30 p.m.). The affidavit must be filed with the Village Treasurer by August 1st of each year to qualify for the reduced sewer charge.

Sewer Charge Reduction
Residential properties using water for watering lawns and/or filling a swimming pool are entitled to a reduction from sewer charges for the quarter ending September 30. To apply for the reduction you need to file the necessary affidavit each year. An affidavit form is available at the Village office during regular business hours (M-F 9:00 a.m. ? 4:30 p.m.). The affidavit must be filed with the Village Treasurer by August 1st of each year to qualify for the reduced sewer charge.
This does not apply to those who water from the lake.
Because the Ordinance requires the discount calculation to be based on sewer usage for quarters ending 12-31, 3-31, and 6-30, the discount cannot be given to anyone who has occupied a premise for less than one year.

ATTENTION: VILLAGE TAX PAYERS AND/OR RESIDENTS Sewer Charge Reduction
Residential properties using water for watering lawns and/or filling a swimming pool are entitled to a reduction from sewer charges for the quarter ending September 30. To apply for the reduction you need to file the necessary affidavit each year. An affidavit form is available at the Village office during regular business hours (M-F 9:00 a.m. ? 4:30 p.m.). The affidavit must be filed with the Village Treasurer by August 1st of each year to qualify for the reduced sewer charge.
This does not apply to those who water from the lake.

Sewer Charge Reduction
Residential properties using water for watering lawns and/or filling a swimming pool are entitled to a reduction from sewer charges for the quarter ending September 30. To apply for the reduction you need to file the necessary affidavit each year. An affidavit form will be included with the July Village tax bills, or you may visit the Village office during regular business hours (M-F 9:00 a.m. ? 4:30 p.m.). The affidavit must be filed with the Village Treasurer by August 1st of each year to qualify for the reduced sewer charge.

June 11, 2008 and July 9, 2008
Since the beginning, the Village of Lake Orion’s goal has been to produce the safest and highest quality drinking water for all its customers.To maintain its commitment, the City of Detroit’s analysts routinely collect and test water samples from the source waters right to customers’ homes, checking purity and identifying potential problems.Treatment plants are constantly maintained, evaluated and upgraded to stay abreast of advancements in technology, health science, and government regulations. A water quality lab is the heart of the quality assurance program. Staffed by highly trained scientists and technicians, the state-certified lab has the latest most sophisticated instruments and can measure substances down to one part in a billion.
Meeting the Challenge
We are once again proud to present to you our annual water quality report. This edition covers all testing completed from January 1 through December 31, 2007. Over the years, we have dedicated ourselves to producing drinking water that meets all state and federal drinking water standards. We continually strive to adopt new and better methods for delivering the best quality drinking water to you. As new challenges to drinking water safety emerge, we remain vigilant in meeting the challenges of source water protection, water conservation and community education while continuing to serve the needs of all our water users.
Please share with us your thoughts about the information in this report. After all, well-informed customers are our best allies.
Where Does My Water Come From?
Customers are fortunate because we enjoy an abundant water supply from the Detroit Water System. The Village of Lake Orion receives its water from the Detroit Water Treatment Plant north of Port Huron. The plant draws surface water from Lake Huron into the plant for treatment through a 16-foot-diameter tunnel, which extends five miles out into Lake Huron. The average depth of the pipe is 190 feet and at the intake it is 45 feet above the bottom of the lake. The water is then treated and pumped through the systems to Village of Lake Orion and other communities. Tests are conducted by the City of Detroit on a regular basis to ensure the water’s safety, as required by the State of Michigan and the U.S. EPA. Detroit also has four other surface water treatment plants that are interconnected and could provide water to Village of Lake Orion should the need arise.
Source Water Assessment
Your source water comes from the lower Lake Huron watershed. The watershed includes numerous short, seasonal streams that drain to Lake Huron. The Michigan Department of Environmental Quality, in partnership with the U.S. Geological Survey, the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department, and the Michigan Public Health Institute, performed a source water assessment to determine the susceptibility of potential contamination. The susceptibility rating is a seven-tiered scale ranging from moderately low to very high based primarily on geologic sensitivity, water chemistry, and contaminant sources. The Lake Huron source water intake is categorized as having a moderately low susceptibility to potential contaminate sources. The Lake Huron water treatment plant has historically provided satisfactory treatment of this source water to meet drinking water standards.
If you would like to know more information about this report or a complete copy of this report, contact the Village of Lake Orion at 248.693.8391.
Important Health Information
Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants may be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. The U.S. EPA/CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline at (800) 426-4791.
About Our Violation
During a 14 day period in January and February, phosphate pump malfunctions resulted in below optimal dosages. Phosphate was added to the water, but at a dosage below the state designated minimum. Despite this lower than acceptable dosage, phosphate residual concentrations in water leaving the plant and entering the distribution system were maintained above the established minimum. Action taken: The chemical feed pumps have all been repaired.
Infants and children who drink water containing lead in excess of the action level could experience delays in their physical or mental development. Children could show slight deficits in attention span and learning abilities. Adults who drink this water over many years could develop kidney problems or high blood pressure. Copper is an essential nutrient, but some people who drink water containing copper in excess of the action level over a relatively short amount of time could experience gastrointestinal distress. Some people who drink water containing copper in excess of the action level over many years could suffer liver or kidney damage. People with Wilson’s disease should consult their personal doctor.
Stormwater Management
In 1999, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) published Phase II regulations for stormwater discharges. Smaller communities and public entities that are part of a contiguous urban area and have separate stormwater sewer systems such as the Village of Lake Orion are subject to these requirements. (The Phase I regulations took effect in 1990 and applied to communities with a population greater than 100,000).
As part of Phase II regulations, Village of Lake Orion was required to obtain a permit for the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES). One of the conditions of the NPDES permit is to develop a public education program. Therefore, Village of Lake Orion will be periodically advertising events concerning stormwater management on our Website. The Village of Lake Orion will also be working with the Clinton River Watershed Council and other local communities on various educational programs concerning stormwater management. Please visit the Clinton River Watershed Council Web site at www.crwc.org or call (248) 601-0606 for event updates and educational materials.
Lead and Drinking Water
If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. The Village of Lake Orion is responsible for providing high quality drinking water, but cannot control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water has been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your water tested. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.
Water Conservation
You can play a role in conserving water and saving yourself money in the process by becoming conscious of the amount of water your household is using and by looking for ways to use less whenever you can. It is not hard to conserve water. Here are a few tips:
? Automatic dishwashers use 15 gallons for every cycle, regardless of how many dishes are loaded. So get a run for your money and load it to capacity.
? Turn off the tap when brushing your teeth.
? Check every faucet in your home for leaks. Just a slow drip can waste 15 to 20 gallons a day. Fix it and you can save almost 6,000 gallons per year.
? Check your toilets for leaks by putting a few drops of food coloring in the tank. Watch for a few minutes to see if the color shows up in the bowl. It is not uncommon to lose up to 100 gallons a day from an invisible toilet leak. Fix it and you save more than 30,000 gallons a year.
? Use your water meter to detect hidden leaks. Simply turn off all taps and water using appliances. Then check the meter after 15 minutes. If it moved, you have a leak.
Substances that Could Be in Water
To ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the U.S. EPA prescribes regulations limiting the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. U.S. Food and Drug Administration regulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water, which must provide the same protection for public health. Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of these contaminants does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk.
The sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals, in some cases, radioactive material; and substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity. Substances that may be present in source water include:
Microbial Contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations, or wildlife;
Inorganic Contaminants, such as salts and metals, which can be naturally occurring or may result from urban stormwater runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farming;
Pesticides and Herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban stormwater runoff, and residential uses;
Organic Chemical Contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes and petroleum production, and may also come from gas stations, urban stormwater runoff, and septic systems;
Radioactive Contaminants, which can be naturally occurring or may be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities.
For more information about contaminants and potential health effects, call the U.S. EPA’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline at (800) 426-4791.
Definitions
AL (Action Level): The concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements which a water system must follow.
MCL (Maximum Contaminant Level): The highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible using the best available treatment technology.
MCLG (Maximum Contaminant Level Goal): The level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety.
MRDL (Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level): The highest level of a disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is convincing evidence that addition of a disinfectant is necessary for control of microbial contaminants.
MRDLG (Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level, Goal): The level of a drinking water disinfectant below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants to control microbial contaminants.
NA: Not applicable
ND (Not detected): Indicates that the substance was not found by laboratory analysis.
NTU Nephelometric Turbidity Units): Measurement of the clarity, or turbidity, of water. Turbidity in excess of 5 NTU is just noticeable to the average person.
ppb (parts per billion): One part substance per billion parts water (or micrograms per liter).
ppm (parts per million): One part substance per million parts water (or milligrams per liter).
TT (Treatment Technique): A required process intended to reduce the level of a contaminant in drinking water.

Sewer Charge Reduction
Residential properties using water for watering lawns and/or filling a swimming pool are entitled to a reduction from sewer charges for the quarter ending September 30. To apply for the reduction you need to file the necessary affidavit each year. An affidavit form will be included with the July Village tax bills, or you may visit the Village office during regular business hours (M-F 9:00 a.m. ? 4:30 p.m.). The affidavit must be filed with the Village Treasurer by August 1st of each year to qualify for the reduced sewer charge.
This does not apply to those who water from the lake.
Because the Ordinance requires the discount calculation to be based on sewer usage for quarters ending 12-31, 3-31, and 6-30, the discount cannot be given to anyone who has occupied a premise for less than one year.

Also, the Future Land Use Map has been updated to reflect what has actually occurred regarding several properties including residential properties at Shadbolt and Lapeer Streets being converted from residential to commercial use and the DDA acquiring the property at 51 N. Broadway for public use.
Proposed Amendment No. 1 and the associated Map are available for public inspection before the public hearing at the Village Hall located at 37 E. Flint Street, Lake Orion, MI during regular business hours, Monday through Friday. Written comments concerning the proposed amendment and map may be submitted prior to the Public Hearing to Arlene M.

Posted: June 22, 2007
Since the beginning, the Village of Lake Orion’s goal has been to produce the safest and highest quality drinking water for all its customers.
To maintain its commitment, the City of Detroit’s analysts routinely collect and test water samples from the source waters right to customers’ homes, checking purity and identifying potential problems.
Treatment plants are constantly maintained, evaluated and upgraded to stay abreast of advancements in technology, health science, and government regulations.
A water quality lab is the heart of the quality assurance program. Staffed by highly trained scientists and technicians, the state-certified lab has the latest most sophisticated instruments and can measure substances down to one part in a billion.
SAFE DRINKING WATER ACT
Under the Safe Drinking Water Act, EPA is responsible for setting national limits for hundreds of substances in drinking water and also the consumer receiving clean water and verifying that states are enforcing the laws that regulate drinking water.
Federal regulation requires water utilities provide detailed water quality information to each of their customers annually.
Public input and comments regarding drinking water may be sent to the Village of Lake Orion at 37 East Flint Street, Lake Orion, MI 48362. Or comments may be expressed in person at the Village Hall or at Village Council meetings -on the second and fourth Monday of each month, excluding holidays.
For more information or any questions, contact JoAnneVan Tassel, Village Manager at 248-693-8391.
WHERE DOES MY WATER COME FROM?
Village customers are fortunate because they enjoy an abundant water supply from the Detroit Water System. The Village receives its water from the Detroit Water Treatment Plant north of Port Huron.
The plant draws water from Lake Huron into the plant for treatment through a 16-foot diameter tunnel which extends five miles out into Like Huron at average depth of 190 feet and is 45 feet deep at the intake.
The water is then treated and pumped through the system to Orion Township and to the Village and other communities.
Detroit also has four other surface water treatment plants which are interconnected and provide water to the Village though these plants, should the need arise.
SUBSTANCES EXPECTED TO BE IN DRINKING WATER
Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain some contaminants. The presence of contaminants doesn’t necessarily indicate that water is a health risk.
Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised people such as people with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, people who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly and infants can be particularly at risk from infections.
The sources of drinking water (both tap and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring materials and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from human activity.
Contaminants that may be present in source water include: microbial contaminants such as viruses and bacteria which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations and wildlife; inorganic contaminants such as salts and metals, which can be naturally occurring or result from urban storm water runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining or farming; pesticides and herbicides which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban stormwater, runoff and residential uses; organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organics, which are by-products of industrial and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater runoff and septic systems; radioactive contaminants which can be naturally occurring or be the result of oil and-gas production and mining activities.
In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the EPA prescribes regulations, which limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. The Food and Drug Administration regulates established limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health water.
These people should seek advice from their healthcare providers about drinking water. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline. (800-426-4791).
HOW WILL KNOW IF THERE’S A PROBLEM WITH MY WATER?
If the amount of contaminants exceeds a predetermined safe level in your drinking water (MCL, Action Level, etc.), people will be notified via newspapers, radio, TV and other means within 24 hours.
With the notification, citizens will be instructed on what appropriate actions they should take to protect themselves and their family’s health.
WHAT’S IN MY WATER?
The water delivered to Village homes and businesses this past year complied with, or did better than all state and federal drinking water requirements.
Village officials have compiled a list in the table showing what substances were detected in the drinking water during 2001. All the substances listed are under the Maximum Contaminant Level set by US EPA and not expected to cause any health risks.
INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR DrinKING WATER
Detroit Water and Sewerage Department, Lake Huron Water treatment Plant Did Not Meet Treatment Requirements. DWSD water system recently violated a drinking water standard. Although this situation does not require that you take immediate action, as our customers, you have the right to know what happened, what you should do, and what we are doing to correct this problem. We treat our water to control corrosion and prevent lead and copper in the pipes from dissolving into the water. The corrosion control treatment is done primarily by the addition of phosphate to the water. To ensure we are optimizing corrosion control, we routinely monitor the water before it enters the distribution system for water quality parameters such as pH and phosphate dosage and residual. We are required to maintain these parameters above state-designated minimums. For 14 days during January and February 2007 we did not maintain a phosphate dosage greater than the established minimum. The standard requires that no more than 9 days in a six-month period may be below the established minimum. For the 14-day period, we did not add enough phosphate for optimal corrosion control. Phosphate was being added to the water, but at a dosage below the state designated minimum.
What should I do?
You do not need to boil your water or take other corrective actions. However, if you have specific health concerns, consult your doctor.
What does this mean?
This situation does not require that you take immediate action. If it had been an emergency, you would have been notified immediately. This is a treatment technique violation, and does not necessarily mean there is lead or copper in your drinking water. It is important that we take measures to control and minimize lead and copper levels in the water, because ingesting lead or copper can cause serious health consequences.
Lead: Infants and children who drink water containing lead in excess of the Action Level could experience delays in their physical or mental development. Children could show slight deficits in attention span and learning abilities. Adults who drink this water over many years could develop kidney problems or high blood pressure.
Copper: Copper is an essential nutrient, but some people who drink water containing copper in excess of the Action Level over a relatively short amount of time could experience gastrointestinal distress. Some people who drink water containing copper in excess of the Action Level over many years could suffer liver or kidney damage. People with Wilson’s disease should consult their personal doctor.
What happened? What is being done?
The phosphate dosage was below the established minimum for too long of a period during the months of January and February 2007. During this time the Lake Huron Water Treatment Plant experienced phosphate pump malfunctions that resulted in the below optimal dosages. Despite this lower than acceptable dosage, phosphate residual concentrations in water leaving the plant and entering the distribution system were maintained above the established minimum. The chemical feed pumps have all been repaired and both dosages and residuals are currently at the optimal level. For more information, please contact JoAnn Van Tassel (248) 693-8391 ext. 101.
Please share this information with all the other people who drink this water, expecially those who may not have received this notice directly (for example, people in aparments, nursing homes, schools and businesses).

Since the beginning, the Village of Lake Orion’s goal has been to produce the safest and highest quality drinking water for all its customers.
To maintain its commitment, the City of Detroit’s analysts routinely collect and test water samples from the source waters right to customers’ homes, checking purity and identifying potential problems.
Treatment plants are constantly maintained, evaluated and upgraded to stay abreast of advancements in technology, health science, and government regulations.
A water quality lab is the heart of the quality assurance program. Staffed by highly trained scientists and technicians, the state-certified lab has the latest most sophisticated instruments and can measure substances down to one part in a billion.
SAFE DRINKING WATER ACT
Under the Safe Drinking Water Act, EPA is responsible for setting national limits for hundreds of substances in drinking water and also the consumer receiving clean water and verifying that states are enforcing the laws that regulate drinking water.
Federal regulation requires water utilities provide detailed water quality information to each of their customers annually.
Public input and comments regarding drinking water may be sent to the Village of Lake Orion at 37 East Flint Sheet, Lake Orion, MI 48362. Or comments may be expressed in person at the Village Hall or at Village Council meetings -on the second and fourth Monday of each month, excluding holidays.
For more information or any questions, contact JoAnne Van Tassel, Village Manager at 248-693-8391.
WHERE DOES MY WATER COME FROM?
Village customers are fortunate because they enjoy an abundant water supply from the Detroit Water System. The Village receives its water from the Detroit Water Treatment Plant north of Port Huron.
The plant draws water from Lake Huron into the plant for treatment through a 16-foot diameter tunnel which extends five miles out into Like Huron at average depth of 190 feet and is 45 feet deep at the intake.
The water is then treated and pumped through the system to Orion Township-and to the Village and other communities.
Detroit also has four other surface water treatment plants which are interconnected and provide water to the Village though these plants, should the need arise.
SUBSTANCES EXPECTED TO BE IN DRINKING WATER
Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain some contaminants. The presence of contaminants doesn’t necessarily indicate that water is a health risk.
Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immunocompromised people such as people with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, people who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly and infants can be particularly at risk from infections.
The sources of drinking water (both tap and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring materials and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from human activity.
Contaminants that may be present in source water include: microbial contaminants such as viruses and bacteria which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations and wildlife; inorganic contaminants such as salts and metals, which can be naturally occurring or result from urban stormwater runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining or farming; pesticides and herbicides which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban stormwater, runoff and residential uses; organic chemical contaminants. including svnthetic and volatile organics, which are by-products of industrial and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater runoff and septic systems; radioactive contaminants which can be naturally occurring or be the result of oil and-gas production and mining activities.
In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the EPA prescribes regulations, which limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. The Food and Drug Administration regulates established limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health water.
These people should seek advice from their healthcare providers about drinking water. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline. (800-426-4791).
HOW NOW IF THERE’S A PROBLEM WITH MY WATER?
If the amount of contaminants exceeds a predetermined safe level in your drinking water (MCL, Action Level, etc.), people will be notified via newspapers, radio, TV and other means within 24 hours.
With the notification, citizens will be instructed on what appropriate actions they should take to protect themselves and their family’s health.
WHAT’S IN MY WATER?
The water delivered to Village homes and businesses this past year complied with, or did better than all state and federal drinking water requirements.
Village officials have compiled a list in the table showing what substances were detected in the drinking water during 2001 .All the substances listed are under the Maxi mum Contaminant Level set by US EPA and not expected to cause any health risks.

notice of public hearing
on a proposed
village of lake orion recreation master plan
2006-2011
Notice is hereby given that a public hearing will be held jointly by the Village of Lake Orion Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee and the Village Council on Tuesday, February 28, 2006, at 7:30 p.m. in the Village Council Room of the Lake Orion Village Hall, 37 E. Flint St., Lake Orion, MI 48362. The public hearing is being held to receive comments and consider the adoption of the Village of Lake Orion Recreation Master Plan 2006-2011.
A Recreation Master Plan assists the Village in identifying recreation needs within the community. The plan will serve as a guide for maintaining, improving and expanding facilities. While a Recreation Master Plan assists the community in determining its goals and needs, if approved by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (MDNR), it also qualifies the community for recreation grants which are administered through the MDNR Grants Administration Section. The proposed Master Plan includes a community description, an overview of the administrative structure of the Village, an inventory of existing facilities, a basis for action and finally recommended goals, guidelines and capital improvements for the next five years.
The hearing is intended to provide an opportunity for interested citizens to express their opinions regarding the aspects of the proposed Recreation Master Plan.
The Village of Lake Orion Recreation Master Plan 2006-2011 is available for public inspection before the public hearing at the Village Hall located at 37 E. Flint Street, Lake Orion, MI during normal business hours, Monday through Friday. Written comments concerning the proposed plan may be submitted prior to the Public Hearing to Arlene Nichols, Village Clerk at 37 E. Flint Street, Lake Orion, MI 48362-3274.
In the spirit of compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, individuals with a disability should feel free to contact the Village office, at least seventy-two (72) hours in advance of the meeting, if requesting accommodations.

Since the beginning, the Village of Lake Orion’s goal has been to produce the safest and highest quality drinking water for all its customers.
To maintain its commitment, the City of Detroit’s analysts routinely collect and test water samples from the source waters right to customers’ homes, checking purity and identifying potential problems.
Treatment plants are constantly maintained, evaluated and upgraded to stay abreast of advancements in technology, health science, and government regulations.
A water quality lab is the heart of the quality assurance program. Staffed by highly trained scientists and technicians, the state-certified lab has the latest most sophisticated instruments and can measure substances down to one part in a billion.
SAFE DRINKING WATER ACT
Under the Safe Drinking Water Act, EPA is responsible for setting national limits for hundreds of substances in drinking water and also the consumer receiving clean water and verifying that states are enforcing the laws that regulate drinking water.
Federal regulation requires water utilities provide detailed water quality information to each of their customers annually.

WHERE DOES MY WATER COME
FROM?
Village customers are fortunate because they enjoy an abundant water supply from the Detroit Water System. The Village receives its water from the Detroit Water Treatment Plant north of Port Huron.
The plant draws water from Lake Huron into the plant for treatment through a 16-foot diameter turmel which extends five miles out into Like Huron at average depth of 190 feet and is 45 feet deep at the intake.
The water is then treated and pumped through the system to Orion Township and to the Village and other communities.
Detroit also has four other surface water treatment plants which are interconnected and provide water to the Village though these plants, should the need arise.
SUBSTANCES EXPECTED TO BE IN DRINKING WATER
Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain some contaminants. The presence of contaminants doesn’t necessarily indicate that water is a health risk.
Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immunocompromised people such as people with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, people who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly and infants can be particularly at risk from infections.
The sources of drinking water (both tap and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring materials and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from human activity.
Contaminants that may be present in source water include: microbial contaminants such as viruses and bacteria which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations and wildlife; inorganic contaminants such as salts and metals, which can be naturally occurring or result from urban stormwater runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining or farming; pesticides and herbicides which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban stormwater, runoff and residential uses; organic chemical contaminants. including svnthetic and volatile organics, which are by-products of industrial and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater runoff and septic systems; radioactive contaminants which can be naturally occurring or be the result of oil and-gas production and mining activities.
In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the EPA prescribes regulations, which limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. The Food and Drug Administration regulates established limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health water.
These people should seek advice from their healthcare providers about drinking water. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporodium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline. (800-426-4791).
HOW NOW IF THERE’S A PROBLEM WITH MY WATER?
If the amount of contaminants exceeds a predetermined safe level in your drinking water (MCL, Action Level, etc.), people will be notified via newspapers, radio, TV and other means within 24 hours.
With the notification, citizens will be instructed on what appropriate actions they should take to protect themselves and their family’s health.
WHAT’S IN MY WATER?
The water delivered to Village homes and businesses this past year complied with, or did better than all state and federal drinking water requirements.
Village officials have compiled a list in the table showing what substances were detected in the drinking water during 2001. All the substances listed are under the Maxi mum Contaminant Level set by US EPA and not expected to cause any health risks.

Pick up will begin in the Village east of M-24 and proceed westward in the downtown area and then out to the Swiss Village and Bellevue areas.

Publish in The Lake Orion-Review – April 28, 2004
Since the beginning, the Village of Lake Orion’s goal has been to produce the safest and highest quality drinking water for all its customers.
To maintain its commitment, the City of Detroit’s analysts routinely collect and test water samples from the source waters right to customers’ homes, checking purity and identifying potential problems.
Treatment plants are constantly maintained, evaluated and upgraded to stay abreast of advancements in technology, health science, and government regulations.
A water quality lab is the heart of the quality assurance program. Staffed by highly trained scientists and technicians, the state-certified lab has the latest most sophisticated instruments and can measure substances down to one part in a billion.
SAFE DRINKING WATER ACT
Under the Safe Drinking Water Act, EPA is responsible for setting national limits for hundreds of substances in drinking water and also the consumer receiving clean water and verifying that states are enforcing the laws that regulate drinking water.
Federal regulation requires water utilities provide detailed water quality information to each of their customers annually.
Public input and comments regarding drinking water may be sent to the Village of Lake Orion at 37 East Flint Street, Lake Orion, MI, 48362. Or comments may be expressed i n person at the Village Hall or at Village Council meetings -on the second and fourth Monday of each month, excluding holidays.
For more information or any questions, contact John Ranville, LO Superintendent of Public Works at 248-693-1463.
WHERE DOES MY WATER COME
FROM?
Village customers are fortunate because they enjoy an abundant water supply from the Detroit Water System. The Village receives its water from the Detroit Water Treatment Plant north of Port Huron.
The plant draws water from Lake Huron into the plant for treatment through a 16-foot diameter tunnel which extends five miles out into Like Huron at average depth of 190 feet and is 45 feet deep at the intake.
The water is then treated and pumped through the system to Orion Township and to the Village and other communities.
Detroit also has four other surface water treatment plants which are interconnected and provide water to the Village though these plants, should the need arise.
SUBSTANCES EXPECTED TO BE IN DRINKING WATER
Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain some contaminants. The presence of contaminants doesn’t necessarily indicate that water is a health risk.
Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised people such as people with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, people who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/ AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly and infants can be particularly at risk from infections.
The sources of drinking water (both tap and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring materials and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from human activity.
Contaminants that may be present in source water include: microbial contaminants such as viruses and bacteria which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations and wildlife; inorganic contaminants such as salts and metals, which can be naturally occurring or result from urban stormwater runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining or farming; pesticides and herbicides which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban stormwater, runoff and residential uses; organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organics, which are by-products of industrial and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater runoff and septic systems; radioactive contaminants which can be naturally occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining activities.
In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, the EPA prescribes regulations, which limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. The Food and Drug Administration regulates established limits for contaminants in bottled water which must provide the same protection for public health water.
These people should seek advice from their healthcare providers about drinking water. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporodium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline. (800-426-4791).
HOW WILL I KNOW IF THERE’S A PROBLEM WITH MY WATER?
If the amount of contaminants exceeds a predetermined safe level in your drinking water (MCL, Action Level, etc.), people will be notified via newspapers, radio, TV and other means within 24 hours.
With the notification, citizens will be instructed on what appropriate actions they should take to protect themselves and their family’s health.
WHAT’S IN MY WATER?
The water delivered to Village homes and businesses this past year complied with, or did better than all state and federal drinking water requirements.
Village officials have compiled a list in the table showing what substances were detected in the drinking water during 2001. All the substances listed are under the Maxi mum Contaminant Level set by US EPA and not expected to cause any health risks.
