Sequestration: The addition of sequestering agent has been reduced. Initially sequestration was introduced for Iron and Manganese control, with the completion of Water Treatment Phase I in April 2011 the need for Iron and Manganese control has been removed; However, consulting engineers have recommended continued low dose of sequestering agent for corrosion protection of metallic fitting within the distribution system. District will follow engineer guidelines and feed sequestering agent at a very reduced dose.
