Understanding




                                                                        the Risk







           • It is important to understand that the water quality has not


           changed, the regulation has. This is the same high quality water

           that was in compliance at the prior NJ guidance level of 40 ppt


           and remains far below the EPA’s health advisory level of 70 ppt.



           • Exceeding this PFOA standard poses NO IMMEDIATE HEALTH


           RISK OR ACUTE THREAT TO YOUR HEALTH!




           • People who drink water containing PFOA over the MCL, over a


           period of 70 years have a 1 in a million chance of an adverse

           health effect from such consumption.
