Nationwide supply chain shortage of Sodium Fluoride shuts down shut down Lake Stevens plant

Snohomish County, Washington, Public Utility District Board of Commissioners Remote Meeting June 2, 2020

Purchased Water results are lower than budget due to time of  year and billing delays with the City of Everett; however, we anticipate an increase in purchase
water cost for the next few months due to a nationwide supply chain shortage of Sodium Fluoride which required us to temporarily shut down the Lake Stevens treatment plant as of May 21.
