Assistance Type: WATER QUALITY ALERT RESPONSE
Reasons: Coliform
N/A
 
Details: SUMMARY: RT Coli positive DETAILS: I called Tom with the Arboretum. He said they had a concrete guy over looking at the tank and he dropped his glasses in the tank. Tom said the tank has some standing water around it and they thought it had a leak but then mysteriously the water went away. I told Tom both scenarios are likely to cause bacterial contamination. If this problem persists they will need to just install chlorination at the system. ACTION NEEDED: Collect 3 RP samples in the distribution and one at the source.
