Details:	I TALKED WITH BLACK BUTTE... THEY ARE CURRENTLY LOOKING FOR A MAINTANENCE MANAGER NOW. EDGE ANALYTICAL DOES THEIR WATER TESTING.I SPOKE WITH MUCHELLE ENGLAND. THEY TOOK REPEATS YESTERDAY, 2-27-23 (3 REPEATS AND ONE SOURCE SAMPLE). THOSE RESULTS WILL BE READY LATER TODAY, BUT MICHELLE TOLD ME IT LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER TC FROM THE WELL, SO THEY MAY HAVE TO SHOCK THE WELL. THE GROUNDWATER IN THIS AREA HAS BEEN FLUCUATING GREATLY DUE TO THE AQUIFER BEING UNSTABLE. THEY WILL LET ME KNOW TOMORROW THE RESULTS. APRIL 24TH, 2023... THE SCHOOL HAS HIRED CHRIS MCKLINE FROM THE NEIGHBORING WATER SYSTEM COLD SPRINGS AS THEIR DRC. THE SCHOOL HAS GOTTEN A FEW +TC'S. THEY SHOCKED THE WELL AND IT STILL CAME BACK POSITIVE. THEY HAD ABBAS WELL DRILLING TRY TO CHOCK IT AGAIN LAST FRIDAY, 21ST, BUT THEY WENT OVER THE SYSTEM AND DETERMINED THE PRESSURE TANK WAS VERY OLD AND THE BLADDER WAS TAKING ON/LEAKING WATER. BEING THE ASCHOOL IS CLOSED F, S, AND S, THIS WAS ENOUGH TIME THEY DETERMINED TO ALLOW THE BAD WATER LEAK BACK INTO THE WELL(?). THEY ARE GOING TO HAVE THE PRESSURE TANK REPLACED (LIKE FOR LIKE, 81 GALLONS), AND THEN EDGE ANALYTICAL WATER LABS WILL TEST THE WATER. THEY WILL MISS THE 3 REPEATS FOR APRIL, BUT IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO TEST WHEN THEY (PROBABLY) KNOW IT WILL BE BAD. THE CHILDREN ARE STILL ON BOTTLED WATER/WATER FROM HOME. AS OF 5-16-23, BLACK BUTTE HAS INSTALLED A LIKE-FOR-LIKE PRESSURE TANK. THEY HAVE ALLOWED IT TO RUN FOR A WEEK TO GET ANY "BAD" WATER OUT OF THE SYSTEM. EDGE ANALYTICAL WILL PERFORM A SAMPLE WEDNESDAY, MAY 24TH. THEY WILL DO THREE SAMPLES.
