Details: SUMMARY: CT Tracer Study DETAILS: The City of Yamhill owns and operates a surface water system that provides water to 920 people through 450 connections. Water from Turner Creek is treated by a rapid sand filtration treatment plant prior to disinfection with sodium hypochlorite. The Circuit Rider was contacted by Richard Howard to provide assistance with a contact tracer study to determine the amount of contact time with the disinfector prior to the first user. The newer intake improvements will allow for the necessary flow conditions to complete the tracer testing at the appropriate rate. Met with Mr. Howard to discuss the methodology for the completion of contact tracer study. ACTION NEEDED: Complete methodology and perform tracer testing.
