6B – THE GLASGOW COURIER, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 12, 2020

Annual Drinking Water Quality Report

City of Glasgow PWSID#MT0000415

We’re very pleased to provide you with the annual Water Quality Report. We want to keep you informed about the excellent water and services we have delivered to you over the past year. Our goal is and always has been, to provide to you a safe and dependable supply of drinking water. Our water source is surface water from the Missouri River.

We’re pleased to report that our drinking water is safe and meets federal and state requirements. If you have any questions about this report or concerning your water, please contact Robert Kompel, Director of Public Works. He can be

reached at 228-2476 ext. 4. If you want to learn more about our water, please attend any of our regularly scheduled meetings. They are held on the first and third Mondays of the month at 5:30 pm.

Glasgow routinely monitors for constituents in your drinking water according to Federal and State laws. The attached report and this one show the results of any detects in the monitoring for the period of January 1st to December 31, 2019. For constituents that are not monitored yearly, we have reviewed our records back to the last time the constituent was monitored.

We have monitored for lead and copper, and all of our samples have been in compliance with the Lead and Copper Rule. 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. Glasgow 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 http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.

In the tables above and below you will find many terms and abbreviations you might not be familiar with. To help you better understand these terms we’ve provided the following definitions:

Parts per billion (ppb) or Micrograms per liter (ug/1) - one part per billion corresponds to one minute in 2000 years or a single penny in $10,000,000.

Parts per million (ppm) or Milligrams per liter (mg/I) - one part per million corresponds to one minute in two years or a single penny in $10,000. Action Level - the concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements which a water system must follow. Treatment Technique (TT) - (mandatory language) A treatment technique is a required process intended to reduce the level of a contaminant

in drinking water. Maximum Contaminant Level - (mandatory language) The “Maximum Allowed” (MCL) is 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. Maximum Contaminant Level Goal - (mandatory language) The “Goal”(MCLG) is 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. Nephelometric Turbidity Unit (NTU) -nephelometric turbidity unit is a measure of the clarity of water. Turbidity in excess of 5 NTU is just

noticeable to the average person. Picocuries per liter (pCi/L) -picocuries per liter is a measure of the radioactivity in water.

Our system had one violation for tardy submission to the State of Montana. However, we’re proud that your drinking water meets or exceeds all Federal and State testing requirements. We have learned through our monitoring and testing that some constituents have been detected. The EPA has determined that your water IS SAFE at these levels.

All sources of drinking water are subject to potential contamination by constituents that are naturally occurring or are manmade. Those constituents can be microbes, organic or inorganic chemicals, or radioactive materials.

All drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The pres-ence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Protection Agency’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 1-800-426-4791.

MCL’s are set at very stringent levels. To understand the possible health effects described for many regulated constituents, a person would have to drink 2 liters of water every day at the MCL level for a lifetime to have a one-in-a-million chance of having the described health effect.

Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. lmmunocompromised 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 can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDC guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by cryptosporidium and other microbiological contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791).

We ask that all our customers help us protect our water sources, which are the heart of our community, our way of life and our children’s future. This annual Drinking Water Report will NOT BE MAILED out to individual water customers. A copy of this report can be picked up at the City Hall.

Current Coronavirus (COVID-19) Scams NorthWestern Energy Warns Of Scams AGING SERVICES SPECIALIST

LISA BAXTER / FOR THE COURIER

Older Americans are par-ticularly vulnerable to coro-navirus (COVID-19) so we want to remind Medicare beneficiaries to be vigilant and take precautions to avoid falling victim to healthcare fraud during this pandemic. We are warning Medicare beneficiaries that scammers may try to use this pandemic to steal their Medicare num-ber, banking information, or other personal data.

Fraud involving economic stimulus checks, ineffective or dangerous medical inter-ventions, pet care, charity scams, phishing or malware delivery is constant and, like the virus, constantly mutates.

Some of the current scams include persons going door-to-door to get people to buy treatments, cures, vaccines, medications and tests for the virus. They tell people these tests can be performed at home – there are currently no such tests.

Scams now impersonate contact tracing, the process of identifying individuals who may have been exposed to the virus through involve-ment with others known to test positive or, in the case

of those testing positive, providing an alert to others who are at risk. Legitimate contact tracers will identify themselves and the organiza-tion for which they work and likely request your name and address, health information (condition) and the names of places you visited or people with whom you have been in contact. Real contact tracers deal with data and collect facts. Impersonators pose as contact tracers primarily to steal either money or in-formation. They emphasize emotion in their tactics so the scam may attempt to reassure you that you can be assisted or frighten you by painting a bleak or threatening situ-ation. Since contact tracers may reach out to you by phone, text message, email or personal visit, it is safe to assume that the criminals will use these methods as well.

Clear signs are easily rec-ognizable in determining whether you are dealing with a legitimate contact tracer or a criminal. The process is called contact tracing, not contract tracing. A number of reported scam attempts indicated the use of the lat-ter term. Another indication comes when the criminal identifies his or her organiza-

tion. While the cost of contact tracing is often covered with Federal funds, the actual activity is conducted by state and local government, public agencies, or foundations, not by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) or the Federal Department of Health and Human Services. Before pro-viding any information, make positive identification. Re-quest a call back or make the call yourself to a number you can authenticate. This can be accomplished by contacting your State Health Department 1-888-333-0461 or your local public health department. Legitimate contact tracers do not ask for money (the preferred scammer payments are gift cards, money orders, or cryptocurrency). You do not need to provide any bank or credit card information, nor will you be asked for your Social Security number. Con-tact tracing does not involve citizenship or immigration status, and as a final warning, do not click on email and text links or downloads as these may infect your technology with malware or viruses.

The COVID-19 pandemic provides the criminal with “the perfect storm” situa-tion for scams: emotion and anxiety. Your task is to reduce

these responses by apply-ing logic and reason. Un-fortunately, scammers take advantage of the most vul-nerable people during times of uncertainty and change. You must protect yourself by making sure you only give your Medicare number to your doctor, pharmacist, hos-pital, health insurer, or other trusted healthcare provider. If someone calls you on the phone, saying they are from Medicare, and asks for your Medicare number or other personal information – just hang up.

Medicare cards no longer have Social Security numbers on them to reduce fraud and protect beneficiaries from identity theft. Even with this change, you should guard your Medicare card like you would a credit card. Be sure to check your Medicare claim summaries for errors and questionable bills. Please note there are no new plastic microchipped Medicare cards coming. This is another item on our scam watch list.

When in doubt you can call your State Health Insur-ance Assistance Program (SHIP) at 1-800-551-3191 to ask for advice or to notify of a potential scam.

FOR THE COURIER

NorthWestern Energy is warning that scammers are likely to use the end of the temporary moratorium on service disconnections to steal money from Montanans.

NorthWestern Energy voluntarily stopped service disconnections for non-payment in March to assist customers financially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Several additional tools are in place now to assist customers who may be struggling to pay their energy bills. For the safety of our employees, custom-ers and communities, NorthWestern Energy’s walk-in offices remain closed, however, the customer associates from those offices are assisting customers over the phone. Any customer concerned about their ability to pay their energy bill should contact NorthWestern Energy right away.

“NorthWestern Energy notified the Montana Public Service Commission that service disconnections will resume for the small percentage of accounts with past due balances who have not responded to multiple requests to contact us to make payment arrangements,” said NorthWestern Energy Vice President Customer Care, Communications and Human Resources Bobbi Schroeppel. “Unfortunately, we know from the expe-rience of other energy providers nation-wide and in Montana that opportunist criminals may try to take advantage of people now.”

Here are warning signs that you may be the target of a scam:

Threat: NorthWestern Energy never contacts any customer threatening ser-vice disconnection if a payment is not made immediately.

Unexpected: NorthWestern Energy provides multiple notices, such as phone calls, mail and door hangers, over sev-eral weeks to customers with past-due accounts. A service disconnection is completed only after a customer receives several notifications.

Surprise: Customers with past due balances continued to receive notices from NorthWestern Energy throughout the temporary moratorium on service disconnections voluntarily put in place in March. NorthWestern Energy cus-tomers with past-due bills will not be surprised by a notice.

Afternoon, Friday or holiday: NorthWestern Energy does not do ser-vice disconnections: after noon; on Fri-days; the day before or during holidays.

If you think you are being contacted by a scammer, hang up, delete the email and call NorthWestern Energy at 888-467-2669.

NorthWestern Energy has extended options for customers with past due balances, including longer terms for payment plans. Our customer associates can also provide referrals to organiza-tions that provide assistance for energy services.

More information on payment op-tions is available at northwesternenergy.com.
