Details: SUMMARY: Alert - TCR Repeat 10/4/07 DETAILS: This firm had a positive bacteria on a resample taken on 10/4/07. Looked at the water system and noted water running out around the sanitary well seal on the well. The well appears to have a slight flow which is coming out around the sanitary well seal. This is believed to get sucked back into the well when the well pump comes on and may be allowing bacteria back into the well. ACTION NEEDED: Ask the firm to contact a pump company and have them look at the well. The well is to be re-disinfected and resampled after the work on the well is completed. The firm is using bottle water to drink until this issue is resolved.
