Details: Background/Problem Identification:

Shawn Stevenson from OHA/Drinking Water Services contacted the Circuit Rider (CR) on 06/12/2023 requesting that a series of MPA tests be performed on the well source at Nesika Beach-Ophir WD.

Assistance Provided:

The CR reviewed the most recent water system survey report and MPA requirement letter provided to the water system by OHA/Drinking Water Services. The CR visited the site on 01/23/2024 to set up the MPA test equipment for the high-runoff sampling. The discharge rate for the Rogue River near Agness, OR at the time of the test was 20,200 CFS. The test ran from 9:49 AM on 01/23/2024 until 8:49 AM on 01/24/2024. Readings on the test equipment water meter read 1,200 gallons at the start of the test and 2,300 gallons at the end of the test for a total of 1,100 gallons of water passing through the filter element. The sample was placed in a cooler with blue ice and sent to LabCor in Seattle for testing. Please see the attached COC and test results.

Follow-Up Actions Needed:

The Circuit Rider is available to assist further as needed.
