The city has discovered <strong data-start=\"1559\" data-end=\"1592\">asbestos in their water lines<\/strong>, and arsenic levels are so high that wells are being combined in an effort to bring levels below the <strong data-start=\"1694\" data-end=\"1715\">EPA&#8217;s legal limit<\/strong>. We\u2019ve already welcomed a dozen or so Port Ludlow residents to our store for clean, healthy water\u2014but many others simply can\u2019t make the trip.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\" data-start=\"1859\" data-end=\"2164\">To help, we\u2019re working on a solution: a <strong data-start=\"1899\" data-end=\"1923\">mobile water trailer<\/strong>, equipped with a tank and dispensing unit\u2014just like the one at our store\u2014that we can park in the community. When the tank runs low, we\u2019ll tow it back to refill at our store and return it, ensuring a continuous supply of safe drinking water.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\" data-start=\"2166\" data-end=\"2675\">While business is improving, we&#8217;re still not operating at a profit, so we\u2019re turning to our community for help.
