Details: SUMMARY: Compliance with Groundwater Rule DETAILS: Laurel Acres operates a small system that serves approximately 50 people through 18 connections. Water from the well is chlorinated them pumped to a 6,000 gallon storage tank. From there, water is re-pressurized and distributed throughout the system. System has had positive coliform results from their source water, which triggered source water monitoring per EPA Standards. The samples also tested positive for e Coli. The EPA Groundwater Rule mandates that corrective action are taken to either fix this source of the problem or provide for 4-log treatment of the viruses tat would be associated with Positive e Coli results. System contacted HBH to provide assistance with compliance with the Ground Water Rule. I reviewed the existing condition and operations of the water system to determine best course of action for compliance with the Ground Water Rule. This includes a cursory evaluation of the existing well to determine the potential for seal issues based on the well log. Prepared recommendations report. ACTION NEEDED: None needed at this time.
