| Details: | WE DISCUSSED THE TOTAL COLIFORM POSITIVE TESTS FROM 7-17-24. UMPQUA LABS DID THE REPEATS ON 7-19-24 AND ONE CAME BACK E. COLI POSITIVE. I DISCUSSED WITH THE LAB ABOUT TAKING A SAMPLE FROM A FROST-FREE SPIGOT. THEY SAID THEY USUALLY DO, BUT I EXPLAINED HOW THE SPIGOT WORKS WITH THE BACK CHECK VALVE BEING UNDERGROUND AND THE "LEAK" HOLE MAY LEAK WATER BACK INTO THE POST AND CAN GROW THE E. COLI... SO WHEN THE NEXT SAMPLE IS TAKEN, REGARDLESS OF LETTING THE WATER RUN, IT CAN APPREAR. WE MET ON 7-22-24 AND WE DID A BOIL WATER NOTICE. THEY SENT IT OUT THAT DAY. WE ALSO COMPLETED A LEVEL 2 INVESTIGATION AND PINPOINTED IT TO THE FROST-FREE SPIGOT. ON 7-24-24, UMPQUA DID REPEATS AGAIN AND THEY WERE ALL TOTAL COLIFORM POSITIVE. THE CISTERN WAS SHOCKED ON 7-25-24 AND ALLOWED TO SIT AND THEN THEY FLUSHED THE SYSTEM. UMPQUA WILL TAKE REPEATS TODAY, 7-30-24... WILL AWAIT FOR THE RESULTS. THE BOIL WATER NOTICE WILL BE LIFTED WHEN ALL FINAL SAMPLES ARE ALL NEGATIVE. |
