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 1,100 connections with just under 2,500 people. 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 assist with a contact tracer study. Some initial coordination has been done between the City and DWS. The study appears to have numerous complications. HBH visited system to verify test plan and complete a dry-run at the tracer test due to the apparent complex nature of the testing. Returned to City and completed data collection. ACTION NEEDED: Complete testing study.
