Assistance Type: WATER QUALITY ALERT RESPONSE
Reasons: Coliform
 
Details: The water system had collected its monthly coliform sample on 8/11/21 and was positive for total coliform bacteria. Three repeat samples and a triggered source sample were collected on 8/12 and one of the distribution samples (different location) was positive for total coliform. This was the third month of multiple coliform detections in less than a year, therefore the system is now required to install treatment.

A letter was put in the mail today and also forwarded to the Mayor. The system has until February to install treatment.

No additional samples are required at this time. System to take its regular/routine coliform sample in September.
