BACTERIOLOGICAL QUALITY PROCEDURAL FAILURE <br />Consumers wishing more information should contact: <br />at (209) <br />(Manager) <br />Date <br />This notification of the public is being done in compliance with the California <br />Domestic Water Quality and Monitoring Regulations as a means of keeping the public <br />informed. <br />The Lower Sac Plaza Water System failed to take the required routine sample for <br />bacteriological monitoring of its drinking water during July, August, September, <br />October, November and December 1999 as specified in Section 64423 (a)(3 & 4) of <br />the California Domestic Water Quality and Monitoring Regulations. The <br />bacteriological quality of domestic water is routinely determined by testing for <br />coliform bacteria. Coliform bacteria are indicators of potential contamination and may <br />originate from human, animal, or soil sources. If the coliform standards are met, the <br />water served can be considered as being bacteriologically safe. If they are not met, <br />drinking the water may not necessarily result in illness, but that possibility exists. <br />Routine sampling is important to periodically check water quality.
