West Dundee water ‘safe' despite elevated barium, radium | |
January 02, 2015 Water testing in West Dundee has shown elevated levels of the elements barium and radium, but the problem is expected to be too short-lived to pose any health risk, authorities said Wednesday. "It's not West Dundee making the determination it's safe to drink," Village Manager Joseph Cavallaro said. "The IEPA, by its standards, has determined the levels we are delivering are safe to drink."
