Details: Carl and I spoke about his following strategy, in rough order:
1. Sample TOC at both sources: North and South forks.
2. Sample TOC after membrane filters, in part to calculate TOC removal by the WTP.
3. Reduce further the Aspmo Tank level (recently reduced to ~75% full)
4. Relatedly, reduce chlorine dose while keeping a detectable residual at ends of distribution (currently ~0.6 mg/L). (Balance 3 & 4)
5. Fine-tune the auto-flusher at the Fort Clatsop sample site.

Then,
6. Research whether installing coagulation would help, given current TOC removals. Maybe it won’t help?
7. Check-in with the Circuit Rider to see if they can add anything.

Check back in April, give or take.
