Details: | SUMMARY: Cartridge Filter Troubleshooting DETAILS: The System owns and operates a small water system that pulls water from Davis Creek and treats the water to comply with the LT1. Treatment is achieved through Strainrite bag filters with post chlorination. The water is then pumped up to the primary residence and school. HBH was contacted by Coos County and the school to provide assistance with the operation and/or reconfiguration of the water treatment plant. During normal operation, the treatment plant is able to produce water for only one week, and then the pressure loss in the Strainrite Filters become such that water cannot be delivered to the tank at the top of the hill. I researched possible coagulants for use with pressure to reduce smaller particles which are plugging the Strainrite Filters. I met with operator at water treatment facility to discuss options for treatment plant upgrades and recommended raw water quality data to be collected. I coordinated with DWP staff regarding the facility. ACTION NEEDED: Continue to work with school to devolve a solution to their water treatment needs. |
