Glad to hear that you got a heads up from the neighbors and that your daughter's tests came back ok!!

Here in Maine we have many places with high levels of arsenic in the water. In most cases it's a naturally occuring source and not manmade contamination. I have a friend who works for the state water quality lab and he tests my well water for me. So far it's come back good, except for an unusually high iron content.

I have a whole house filtration system, along with separate filters on the fridge and kitchen sink. I use 2 micron filters on the fridge, along with an extra taste and sediment filter on that line. It's expensive, but it ensures that my water is drinkable and my ice is clean! I also have a sediment filter for the washer supply line, cause all my whites were turning that lovely pinkish brown color...

The one good thing?...there will be no anemia in this house.

I hope that you can get water piped to you sooner than the timetable you have been given !
