Details: | SUMMARY: Contact Tracer Study DETAILS: 4193461HBH had performed a contact tracer study in 2010. The flow rate of the test (stated as 7.5 gpm by the water system staff) has been rightly called into question. Since this test, it was recommended to the system that they monitor their flows to accurately determine the peak flows. The reported peak flow was 25 gpm. It should be noted that during the tracer testing completed in August 2011, it was seen that the flow meter at the systems reads in cubic feet, not gallons. It is likely that the original tracer test was actually run at 56 gpm. The purpose of these contacts is to establish an accurate contact tracer test for the Hot Springs. HBH corresponded with DWP Staff (Gregg Baird) and system staff to set up tracer testing. HBH visited water system on 7/27/11 to collect data. At this time, the system was not ready for the testing to begin. Rather, the methodology was refined during this visit. ACTION NEEDED: Complete tracer testing at desired peak flow rate. |
