Assistance Type: WATER QUALITY ALERT RESPONSE
Reasons: Coliform
 
Details: Both Triggered and repeat sample E.coli+ following 8/25 routine E.coli+ Already emailed Tim Boil water template on 8/27 and discussed distributing to homeowners. Discussed possible causes (leaky concrete reservoir) and that the triggered sample tap in pumphouse may not be representative of the well. Unsure of where this tap is sourced from but likely the reservoir. Survey from 2008 noted no raw sample tap. Discussed chlorination for well and reservoir to approximately 10 mg/L. Keep boil water notice active until source found and fixed and samples show absent of bacteria.
