Polson City Manager Ed Meece on Thursday tagged the word historic onto the list of conditions that led the city to shut off water to 77 homes earlier this week, a measure not taken in recent memory.Â
That s historic temperatures along with historic visitation to the area encircling the mouth of Flathead Lake in Western Montana. Troubling conditions persisted through June and early July, Meece said, prompting Polson s first round of mitigation efforts July 6, right after the largest Fourth of July attendance we ve ever seen. All of this started to play against us and once (the city s water reserves) were down, we just could get them back up, Meece said in a phone interview Thursday.
Water samples taken by Helena staff in Ten Mile Creek following the Environmental Protection Agency s mine waste spill show severely higher levels of metals and arsenic than the federal agency s test results indicated.
During the Helena City Commission s Monday meeting, City Manager Rachel Harlow-Schalk updated the commissioners on the status of what the EPA is referring to as a burp that caused mining sediment from the long abandoned Susie Mine, part of the larger Upper Ten Mile Creek Mining Area Superfund site, to spill into Ten Mile Creek on July 12.
According to the EPA s on-site coordinator operating in the area, Duc Nguyen, less than 100 gallons of water mixed with mining sediment was released into the creek below the city s water treatment plant intakes.

HELENA â The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency says only about 100 feet of Tenmile Creek were affected by the release of sludge from a mine in Rimini.
Chris Wardell, community involvement section chief for the EPA, said in a statement that a small amount of sludge â about 20 to 40 gallons â was released Monday from the Susie Mine. He said crews had been using a hose to suck up water from inside the mine tunnel, when the hose accidentally picked up excess sediment and sludge.
