Study: High levels of arsenic, uranium found in CT wells FacebookTwitterEmail 1of2 The colors on this map identify the estimated percentage of private wells in Connecticut with water containing arsenic concentrations greater than 10 micrograms per liter, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s maximum contaminant level for arsenic in drinking water supplies. The black symbols identify arsenic concentrations in water from sampled wells. White areas on the map, representing 1.9 percent of the state, indicate geologic units from which no arsenic samples are available.U.S. Geological Survey ...
