Click here to view an important notice from LA County Waterworks that is a result of a uniform statewide regulation and is being provided to all students and employees and parents (if students are minors) at Antelope Valley College.

Hexavalent chromium, which can occur naturally in groundwater or from industrial sources, is found in many counties throughout California, including LA County. The specific concentration in the water system varies by location, but all are subject to the same state-mandated limit and notification rules. 

For more information on the hexavalent chromium standard, you can visit the California State Water Resources Control Board website.
