This Emergency Administrative Order is issued to General Chemical Soda Ash Partners after EPA determined that conditions exist at the system that may present an imminent and substantial endangerment to human health. This determination was made following a leak in the system's distribution system first identified on 9/22/2010 which lead to a loss of pressure in the distribution system. Loss of pressure may casue a net movement of water from outside the pipe to the inside through cracks, breaks, or joints in the distribution system. This movement presents a high potential for fecal contamination or other disease causing organisms to enter the distribution system and contaminate the system's water.
