Details: SUMMARY: CT Tracer Study DETAILS: The City of Myrtle Point has a conventional water treatment plant which treats water from the North Fork of the Coquille River. The water system has 1100 customers and a population just under 2500 persons. Disinfection is provided by a Miox mixed oxidant/NaOCI generation system after the rapid sand filtration. Chlorine contact takes place in a 95,000-gallon clearwell and then a 1-MG and 2-MG reservoir operated in parallel. HBH was contacted by the City Engineer, Garrett Pallo to provide assistance with a contact tracer study. Some initial coordination has been done between the City and DWP. The study appears to have numerous complications. Corresponded with City Engineer. Reviewed available information and initial proposed tracer testing plan. ACTION NEEDED: Develop methodology and complete tracer study.
