>> marty: all this week, kron 4 has been taking an in-depth look at the dangers of lead contamination. and now, we visit with east bay mud officials to find out how they keep lead from contaminating an aging water system. kron 4's charles clifford has that story. nats the east bay municipal utility district delivers water to about 400,000 customers. they, like all providers in the state, are required to closely monitor the quality of their water to ensure that it's safe to drink and use. they must meet tough federal and state standards to ensure that the water is not excessively corrosive and that it doesn't contain harmful containments such as lead. there's also no "one size fits all" way to test water, every district is a little different. rick sakaji is the water quality manager at east bay mud.
8:49 am
sot we all draw from different sources and each source has it's own unique water quality characteristics. that's why each individual utilities conducts their own water quality control and tailors their program. sot we test our water every single day. andrea pook is a spokesperson for the utility she adds that east bay mud spent years removing man made sources of lead contamination.. specifically lead pipes that were put in place around world war 2. sot in the eighties and 90s we went back into our system to identify where we might have lead service lines. sot we have taken a majority of those lines out but despite rigorous testing and the removal of problematic pipes, high lead levels are sometimes still found inside homes and buildings. on the rare occasion that this happens, the contamination is almost always traced, not to the source of the water, but to a problem inside the home itself. sot whether it's the fixtures or plumbing in their home it's not the source water. following the alarming events in flint michigan and other places across the country where high lead levels have been found
8:50 am
in drinking water, east bay mud decided to take second look at its system..to see if there were any source of lead contamination that they may have missed. sot we are going back in right now through the summer of 2018 to double check our paperwork and recheck every single service line for all of our 400,000 customers standup and finally, for anyone concerned about lead in their water, east bay mud recommend finding a state certified lab to test your water for you. the utility is also working on setting up a voucher program to help customers pay for that testing. in the south bay, the santa clara valley water district also recommends using a state certified lab and here in sf, you can pay the sfpuc 25 bucks and they will test your water for you. in san francisco, charles clifford kron 4 news. take a look at this. this is video from the "every day is a day of thanksgiving" event in el sobrante. it offers a free hot thanksgiving meal, a bag of groceries, a frozen turkey, and clothes. this is the 14-th year for this event. it is aimed at feeding the needy in the east bay and making

containments such as lead. there's also no "one size fits all" way to test water, every district is a little different. rick sakaji is the water quality manager at east bay mud. sot we all draw from different sources and each source has it's own unique water quality characteristics. that's why each
9:50 am
individual utilities conducts their own water quality control and tailors their program. sot we test our water every single day. andrea pook is a spokesperson for the utility she adds that east bay mud spent years removing man made sources of lead contamination.. specifically lead pipes that were put in place around world war 2. sot in the eighties and 90s we went back into our system to identify where we might have lead service lines. sot we have taken a majority of those lines out but despite rigorous testing and the removal of problematic pipes, high lead levels are sometimes still found inside homes and buildings. on the rare occasion that this happens, the contamination is almost always traced, not to the source of the water, but to a problem inside the home itself. sot whether it's the fixtures or plumbing in their home it's not the source water. following the alarming events in flint michigan and other places across the country where high lead levels have been found in drinking water, east bay mud decided to take second look at its system..to see if there were any source of lead contamination that they may have missed. sot we are going back in right now through the summer of 2018 to double check our paperwork and recheck every single service line for all of our 400,000 customers standup and finally, for anyone concerned about lead in their water, east bay mud recommend finding a state certified lab to test your water for you. the utility is also working on setting up a voucher program to help customers pay for that
