Reviewed Report Rows
15 reviewed rows from the 2025 report
Measurements, ranges, units, limit fields, status cells, likely-source wording, and table names remain scoped to the named annual-report rows.
Disinfectants and disinfection by-products
These three rows preserve the source category and the 2025 sample year printed in the report.

Report Context
Context attributed to the source report
These summaries are limited to the named annual report and do not assert live system, compliance, or advisory status.
Annual report scope
The City of Kenai document is a 2025 Consumer Confidence Report for PWSID AK2240448. Annual reports summarize a reporting period and are not live status pages.
Source water described in the report
Page 1 identifies groundwater from the Beaver Creek Aquifer and four deep wells near the Kenai water treatment plant. This is report-source context, not proof of service to a particular address.
Historical source-water assessment
The report reproduces a 2004 source-water assessment for Well #2A. Its susceptibility and vulnerability categories are historical assessment context, not current detections or household-level risk findings.
Treatment described in the report
Page 2 says the source water is treated by filtration and disinfection. This summarizes the annual report and does not determine present conditions at a specific tap.
Monitoring waiver context
Page 3 describes Synthetic Organic Compound and Other Organic Compound waivers for 2023-2025, a three-year VOC schedule, and a three-year asbestos cycle. These are report-period monitoring statements, not a current compliance determination.
Lead service-line context
Pages 3-4 say the utility's reviewed inventory did not include lead service lines and describe the evidence used. That statement does not determine plumbing or service-line material at a particular property.
Arsenic narrative context
Page 4 includes an arsenic narrative next to the data table. This page preserves the source's printed Arsenic row and does not adopt the report's present-tense compliance wording as a current conclusion.
Table coverage and sample years
The report explains that some monitoring is not annual. Its rendered rows include printed sample years from 2022 through 2025; Chromium and Selenium have no printed sample date.
Why the Total Coliform row is not rendered
The source prints NA for MCLG, detected value, and both range cells; TT as the criterion; 2025 as the sample date; and No in the Violation column. Because it does not print a measured result, this row is explicitly reviewed but not rendered as a result card.
Violations and exceedances in the annual report
The source prints 'Violations and Exceedances-None' on page 6. That is retained only as a report-period statement; current status is not asserted.
Definitions printed in the report
All unit and regulatory definitions printed on page 7 are transcribed for reading context. They do not create a current compliance or safety conclusion.
Definitions printed in this report
- ug/L
- Number of micrograms of substance in one liter of water.
- ppm
- Parts per million, or milligrams per liter (mg/L).
- ppb
- Parts per billion, or micrograms per liter (ug/L).
- pCi/L
- Picocuries per liter, a measure of radioactivity.
- MFL
- Million fibers per liter, used to measure asbestos concentration.
- % positive samples/month
- Percent of samples taken monthly that were positive.
- NA
- Not applicable.
- ND
- Not detected.
- NR
- Monitoring not required, but recommended.
- 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.
- 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.
- TT
- Treatment Technique: a required process intended to reduce the level of a contaminant in drinking water.
- AL
- Action Level: the concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements which a water system must follow.
- Variances & Exemptions
- State or EPA permission not to meet an MCL or a treatment technique under certain conditions.
- MRDLG
- Maximum residual disinfection 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 disinfectants to control microbial contaminants.
- MRDL
- Maximum residual disinfectant level: the highest level of a disinfectant allowed in drinking water. The report says adding a disinfectant is necessary to control microbial contaminants.
- MNR
- Monitored Not Regulated
- MPL
- State Assigned Maximum Permissible Level.
- 90th Percentile
- Compliance with lead and copper action levels is based on the 90th percentile lead and copper levels. The report explains that concentrations must be less than or equal to the action level in at least 90% of samples collected.

Source-period disclosures kept separate from live status
These items preserve report wording and scope. They do not create violation records, advisory records, or a current-status conclusion.
Report-period violations statement
Page 6 prints 'Violations and Exceedances-None.' This page retains that statement only as part of the 2025 annual report. It does not assert current compliance or the absence of a current notice.
Current status is not asserted. Check official current sources for notices or instructions.
