Current Lead Compliance Data Lead Compliance Data for Nevada Public Water Systems The table below shows the 90th percentile Lead level for three-hundred-thirty-nine (348) public water systems (PWSs) that are currently subject to the Lead and Copper Rule. The USEPA sets the 90th percentile Action Level (AL) for Lead at 0.015 mg/L. If a water system's Lead concentrations exceed the AL in more than 10% of the samples, the system must undertake additional actions to investigate the source of Lead and control corrosion in the pipes of the distribution system. The system must also inform the public about the steps they should take to protect their health (Public Education) and may have to replace lead service lines under their control.

  • On October SO, 1993, the Mirage Resorts, Inc., Imploded the Casino and North Tower, Which Was Televised
    Dunes MICHELLE REED On October SO, 1993, the Mirage Resorts, Inc., imploded the casino and north tower, which was televised. The Dunes's death signified the birth of another resort. n I ily, we're going to be late," Robert says. He paces nervously in front of Lthe door and jingles our car keys in his hand. "It doesn't matter," I say. "They're always running behind anyway." I slurp the leftover milk from my cereal bowl and place it on the coffee table. "I want to see what they're going to say about the Dunes." Robert sighs loudly as he moves around the room. He fluffs the pillows beside me on the sofa and straightens the pile of magazines on the floor beside his chair. It's not his fault that he doesn't understand. He doesn't know Lizzy, has never even heard of her. I pick up the remote control and turn the volume up on the television. The news of the implosion of the Dunes made it all the way from Las Vegas to New Orleans, and a KNYZ reporter is announcing that it will be broadcast tonight at 6 p.m. The screen behind her shows a group of people gathered around the casino's marquee. Thanks for the Memories, it reads. It's been nineteen years since I've seen my sister. I search the crowd for her face, almost sure that I won't see her but hoping anyway. Lizzy was in the eighth grade when I was nine. It was 1973, the year she stopped celebrating her birthday.

  • Oasis/Mirage: Fantasies of Nature in Las Vegas*
    _______________________________________________________ 2002, in Nature and its Discontents from Virgin Land to Disney World: Reinterpretations of Freud's Civilization Thesis in the America(s) of Yesterday and Today. Ed. B. Herzogenrath. New York: Editions Rodopi ________________________________________________________ Natasha Dow Schull Oasis/Mirage: Fantasies of Nature in Las Vegas* I had the great fortune of arriving in Las Vegas at dawn in an airplane. It was light enough to see the city and part of the desert, but it was still dark enough so that they hadn't turned the signs off for the day. I never saw such a sight in my life. It looked like an entire city was lurching across the desert. It was an incredible movement! I rented a car and started driving and I saw an extraordinary thing: the horizon, the skyline, was not made of trees and it was not made of buildings. It was all signs. Tom Wolfe (in Stern 1979:11) The towns of the desert end abruptly; they have no surround. And they have about them something of the mirage, which may vanish at any instant. You have only to see Las Vegas, sublime Las Vegas, rise in its entirety from the desert at nightfall bathed in phosphorescent lights, and return to the desert when the sun rises, after exhausting its intense, superficial energy all night long, still more intense in the first light of dawn, to understand the secret of the desert and the signs to be found there: a spellbinding discontinuity, an all-enveloping, intermittent radiation. Jean Baudrillard (1989:127) Almost everyone notes that there is no “time” in Las Vegas, no night and no day and no past and no future; neither is there any logical sense of where one is.

  • The Naming of Gaming
    The Naming of Gaming Pauliina Raento Academy of Finland and William A. Douglass University of Nevada, Reno The naming of casinos in Las Vegas, Nevada, is an essential ingredient in the design of the city's entertainment landscape. More than 300 names have been used in the naming of gaming in Las Vegas since 1955. They occur in seven dominant patterns: 1) luck and good fortune, 2) wealth and opulence, 3) action, adventure, excitement and fantasy, 4) geography, 5) a certain moment, era, or season, 6) intimacy and informal- ity, and 7) "power words" commonly used in the naming of businesses. The categories are described and analyzed from the perspective of the evolution of Las Vegas. Regional variations between the Las Vegas Strip, Downtown Las Vegas, and suburban Las Vegas are also discussed. The names provide a powerful means of evoking senses of place, images, and identities for the casinos. They underscore the interpretative subjectivity and plurality of the relationship between people and commercial urban environments. Introduction We name people, things, and places to distinguish them from one another and to give them character. Often the names are commemorative and draw upon features (usually positive) of individuals and places. Buildings, streets and towns are named after other familiar places, historical events, and distinguished persons who have played a notable role in the shared past.
