Details: SUMMARY: Response to total coliform positive DETAILS: Darrell followed up a routine total coliform positive on 10/13/10 with 3 required repeats. All repeats (taken 10/14 and 10/20) were coliform absent, so no MCL violation. Chlorine residuals were at a detectable range, at least 0.6 mg/L. Darrell feels sampling error is the cause of the routine positive. Nothing out of the ordinary occuring in the distribution system. Darrell also stated 2nd routine coliform sample also was taken on 10/13, which was absent. ACTION NEEDED: Rainier to take 5 temporary routines in the month of November. DWP to provide assistance with any additional positives or to answer questions on coliform sampling protocol.
