Details: | SUMMARY: Two routine positive total coliforms DETAILS: Pat notified OHA-DWS today that two routine samples collected Monday 6/22/15 came back positive for total coliform (absent for E. coli). The samples were collected from 2275 Manzanita St. NE and 408 Garland Ave. N. Three repeats (upstream, downstream, original site) for each site will be collected today, as well as triggered raw source samples from the 9 wells in operation at the time (Carlhaven East, Carlhaven West, Cherry, City Hall, Willamette, McNary, 17th, Delta, and Reitz). Pat said that theyve been doing some flushing of the system but did not know for sure if that had anything to do with the positive samples. ACTION NEEDED: Will wait for results of repeat samples (available Thursday 6/25/15) and respond accordingly. UPDATE: On 6/25/15 Keizer notified us that all repeats and triggered source samples were absent. No further action required at this time. Note: system is aware that no more than 5% of monthly samples (consisting of both routines and repeats) can be total coliform positive. There have been 3 positives this month which is allowed as long as a total of 60 samples for the month are collected. | ||
