Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) Director Steve Owens has awarded a $258,300 grant to Gila County to fund a water quality improvement project. The Gila County Division of Health & Community Services will use the grant to continue to replace, repair, & upgrade outdated wastewater systems, such as illegal cesspools, privies & failing septic tanks in the Tonto Creek headwaters & Christopher Creek areas. Several inadequate wastewater systems will be replaced to protect public health, improve the water quality of Tonto Creek & Christopher Creek and protect groundwater in the area. ADEQ has identified human sewage as a major contributing factor to pollution adversely impacting Tonto Creek & Christopher Creek. "This grant will help Gila County protect the health & safety of County residents by improving surface water quality & preventing contamination of groundwater," Director Owens said. "We are delighted to support the County in this important effort." ADEQ Director Steve Owens awarded Gila County with a ceremonial check for the grant at a meeting of the Gila County Board of Supervisors in Globe. In 2005, ADEQ awarded Gila County $252,764 to begin the much-needed work on the wastewater systems in the area. The current grant will enable the County to continue its work & protect contamination of water supplies in the area. With the 2 grants, ADEQ has provided over $511,000 to Gila County for the project in the last 2 years. The grants are funded with federal dollars provided to ADEQ under the Clean Water Act.

The new West Nile virus testing lab inside the walls of Pinal County's Environmental Health Offices is able to produce much faster results in the hunt for WNV across Pinal County. "For the past 2 years the state lab has been overwhelmed with the amount of mosquito samples brought in from all the counties," said Tami Schuler, a technician for the Pinal County's Division of Environmental Health. Schuler, who has been focused on Pinal County's battle with WNV for the past 3 years, says that test results could take up to 2 weeks if the mosquitoes were sent to the state lab in Phoenix. Now, with the testing lab in place locally, results can be achieved in as little as an hour & a half. The quicker turn around time means a faster response time if a positive sample of WNV is found. "Before, we might wait 2 weeks or more to find out if we had any positive results from an area we sampled," Schuler says. "Now, if our lab turns up a positive sample, we can immediately schedule the area to be fogged. This lab helps us fight WNV much more effectively." Due to the tremendous amount of samples coming into their laboratories, the State of Arizona gifted the County with the testing equipment to help alleviate the crush in Phoenix. Pinal joins Maricopa, Pima & Yuma counties as having their own facilities for testing. The new facility has already received a workout as Schuler has tested 4 dead birds and 11 mosquito samples. So far, no signs of WNV have been detected in the County which is a different story from last year. "By this time last year we already were looking at a positive sample for West Nile," Schuler said. "That was because of the wet winter we had. So far this year it has been relatively dry which means there are less mosquitoes out there. But I heard forecasts that predict we are going to have a summer with lots of heat and moisture. If that happens we will be busy."
