Assistance Type: WATER QUALITY ALERT RESPONSE
Reasons: Coliform
 
Details: To summarize our phone call, the process moving forward for a coliform alert response plan is as follows:
• A positive coliform routine sample needs both a repeat and a source trigger sample within 10 days of the routine sample.
• Unless any of the samples are positive for E. coli, continue with quarterly coliform sampling.
• If any of the samples come back positive for E coli, a boil water and/or do not drink water advisory must be issued to the users of the system.
• There is the option to conduct an informal level 1 investigation to help determine what might be the source of contamination.

I have attached the section in the Oregon administrative rules which relates to your situation. I also shared the forms for both a level 1 investigation and a level 2 investigation.
