I was notified by the lab approx. 2pm and contacted Dale at the system immediately to issue a boil water advisory. Dale distributed PN by hand, email and community sign boards. My office visited all the food service facilities and ODA stores in Tumalo and discussed boil advisory and left OHA contaminated water fact sheet. Dale contacted me in afternoon that he chlorinated reservoir to approx. 10-12 ppm. He will flush Thursday and sample again Friday after all chlorine is gone. Local TV station aired story on this 8pm Wednesday evening. Can lift boil PN only if all follow up samples absent for bacteria.
