OTTAWA – The Canadian Food Inspection Agency issued a recall March
14 of Ark Land brand naturally carbonated mineral water because it
may contain arsenic, according to a March 15 CBC News report.

The water being recalled is packaged in 330-milliliter (ml)
(11.6-ounce) bottles with the universal product code (UPC) 7 85000
12033 9, as well as 550-ml (18.6-ounce) bottles with UPC 7 85000
12050 6; both carry a "best before" date of 09/05/07, according to
the news report.

The report states that the water is imported from Armenia-based Arzni
Source and possibly was distributed throughout Canada, but definitely
in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec.

There have been no reported illnesses associated with the consumption
of the recalled bottled water, according to the CBC News report.

Another Armenia-based bottler recently had its product recalled,
as reported by WaterTech Online.
