Default Calgary Water Hardness?

Does anyone know what the hardness of the water here is in Calgary straight out of the tap?

Cheers
Lawrence

It also varies depending on the time of year. Spring run off the hardness increases.. I have a print out of what they normally are (got it from the City )

Normally I am in 200 - 250 as well
