Details: SUMMARY: Disinfection Assistance DETAILS: The Rowena Dell Water system is a small groundwater system in Wasco County. The system owns and operates 2 wells and distribution system. The population of approximately 35 people is served through 15 connections. Since August of 2011, the system has continued to have positive coliform test results. The positive test results have been randomly distributed, with samples coming back absent one test, and showing positive the next. However, throughout testing, the samples taken directly from the wells have not shown any coliform counts. This has lead us and their operator to believe the source of the coliform is coming from their distribution system and not their source. Phil Rengler contact HBH to provide assistance with adding a performing CT tracer Study. HBH visited the system and developed recommendations for the addition of chlorination system. ACTION NEEDED: Provide additional assistance is requested.
