New Mexico American Water Releases 2009 Water Quality Reports to Edgewood Area Customers

EDGEWOOD, N.M., June 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- New Mexico American Water recently announced the results of its 2009 water quality report for its Edgewood service area.

The reports show that water quality meets state and federal standards for all of its Edgewood area. New Mexico American Water has about 60,000 customers within the state.

"These water quality reports confirm our commitment to providing our customers with the best product possible," said Kathy Wright, general manager of New Mexico American Water. "Water quality is our top priority and I believe these results demonstrate that."

The annual reports measure the quality of New Mexico American Water's water quality against the standards established by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the state of New Mexico. The report details drinking water sources, the testing methodology, the substances detected in the water and the levels of those substances. Commonly asked questions and answers concerning drinking water are also included.

The water quality reports, which are updated and distributed annually, were delivered to Edgewood customers in May and June of 2010. Most reports will arrive as a customer bill insert. However, some will be directly mailed to customers' homes.

Those who are not direct recipients of a water bill (e.g., renters) can request a copy of the report for their area from the company's customer service center at 1-800-565-7292. The reports will also be made available online at www.amwater.com/nmaw.
