Monrovia : Water-Quality Testing
Regional water officials are conducting tests to determine whether to build a $1.1-million plant to treat polluted water at five wells in Monrovia.
The state Department of Toxic Substances Control has awarded a $634,447 grant to the Main San Gabriel Basin Water Quality Authority for the plant. The city of Monrovia has pledged $500,000.
If the tests indicate significant contamination cannot be removed, water quality authority officials said they will study other nearby wells to see if they would benefit from the plant.
