Assistance Type: WATER QUALITY ALERT RESPONSE
Reasons: Coliform
 
Details: I contacted Mr. McLaren regarding the total positive coliform sample from this system. I discussed the required 3 repeats at proper locations, and 1 triggered near the well.
He stated they were in the process of flushing the system and possibly shocking, to which I informed him that flushing was recommended but shocking would inhibit the ability to detect contamination locations. He also stated that there were only 3 people currently using the water on site. This could cause stagnation of water due to high volume of storage with little use.
