My waterworks printed their annual water report in the Northwest Alabamian this week. I've dutifully copied down all the listed minerals and the rates. Note these are all parts per million. ND means "Not Detected" according to the report.

Sodium 1.33
Sulfate 8.8
Total Dissolved Solids 52.0
Calcium 3.0
Magnesium 1.14
Aluminum ND
Manganese ND
Iron ND
Nickel ND
Carbon Dioxide 2.4
Hardness 12.1
Color ND
Silver ND
Zinc ND
Ph level 7.34
Total alkalinity 9.0
Okay. So how do I read this?
