Water Quality

I got a call back from Easton Suburban Water Authority about water quality. The woman was really nice (Erin?).

Last year is published here: http://www.eswater.net/report_2007.pdf
Here is what I done learnt about 2008.

Calcium 15.7 ppm
Hardness 54
ph 7.15
Sulfate 23.1

Supposedly bicarbonate is calcium + magnesium and magnesium is a property of hardness and calcium? That will take a little bit of research.

Reason so soft she said was because we drink from the Delaware, not from ground water, so the water does not absorb nearly as much minerals as other cities/wells may.
