Coliform
 
Details: SUMMARY: Jon called because repeat samples had TC+ results DETAILS: Jon called because his repeat tests were all positive for coliform presence. He has already sent out the Tier 2 notice to his 39 people via email, and is heading up the river to physically post it as well. He plans to shock chlorinate the well and the tank Monday night, after the Labor Day weekend, so as not to disrupt the holiday residents. He suspects the redwood tank is the source of coliform infiltration into the system. I directed him to the OAWU for further assistance for this recurring problem. ACTION NEEDED: Await test results after shock chlorination.
