Cash TEST RESULTS AND USE RECOMMENDATIONS 1. ® Your well water meets federal drinking water standards for inorganic chemicals. Your water can be used for drinking, cooking, washing, cleaning, bathing, and showering based on the inorganic chemical results only. You may have other water sampling results that are not taken into account in this report. 2. ❑ The following substance(s)exceeded federal drinking water standards or the North Carolina 2L calculated health levels. The North Carolina Division of Public Health recommends that your well water not be used for drinking and cooking, unless you install a water treatment system to remove the circled substance(s). However, it may be used for washing, cleaning, bathing and showering based on the inorganic chemical results only. ❑Arsenic ❑Barium nCadmium (Chromium nCopper ❑Fluoride nLead ['Iron nManganese ['Mercury ❑Nitrate/Nitrite nSelenium nSilver nMagnesium ❑Zinc ❑pH 3. ❑ a. Sodium levels exceed the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (USEPA) Health Advisory level for sodium of 20 mg/I. The North Carolina Division of Public Health recommends that only individuals on no or low sodium restricted diets not use this water for drinking or cooking. It may be used for washing, cleaning, bathing, and showering based on the inorganic chemical results only. ❑ b. Levels over 30 mg/I may pose aesthetic problems such as bad taste, odor, staining of porcelain, etc. 4. ❑ Re-sampling is recommended in months. 5. n Re-sample for lead and/or copper. Take a first draw, 5 minute, and 15 minute sample inside the house (preferably the kitchen) and if possible a first draw, 5 minute and a 15 minute sample at the well head to determine the source of the lead and/or copper. 6. ❑ The following substance(s) exceeded federal drinking water standards. Your water can be used for drinking, cooking, washing, cleaning, bathing, and showering based on the inorganic chemical results only, but aesthetic problems such as had taste, odor, staining of porcelain, etc. may occur. You may want to install a household water treatment system to address aesthetic problems. ❑Barium nCadmium nChromium nFluoride nlron nMagnesium ❑Manganese ❑Selenium nSilver np1-I ❑Zinc For more information regarding your well water results,please call the North Carolina Division of Public Health at 919-707-5900. North Carolina Division of Public Health Occupational and Environmental Epidemiology Branch, Epidemiology Section BIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS REPORT Private well water information and recommendations County: Catawba Name: Joshua Grant Sample ID Number: 68589 Location: 4384 River Rd. Hickory, NC 28602 Reviewer: M. Cash Initial Sample: X Confirmation Sample BIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS RESULTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USES OF YOUR PRIVATE WELL WATER(These recommendations are based on biological analysis only.) XNo coliform bacteria were found in your well water. Your water can be used for all purposes including drinking, cooking, washing dishes, bathing and showering. Total coliform bacteria were detected in the sample which indicates that harmful bacteria from human or animal waste could enter the well. Do not use the water for drinking or cooking unless it has been boiled for 3 minutes. You may use your water for all other purposes including washing dishes, bathing or showering. Your well water needs to be re-tested to verify that the result is accurate. Fecal coliform bacteria were detected in the sample. Do not use the water for drinking, cooking, washing dishes, bathing or showering. If the re-test shows contamination by bacteria contact your local health department for assistance. There may be a problem with the construction of the well, the groundwater source, or operation of the well. The well needs to be inspected by the local health department or a local well contractor to determine the problem with the well and to give guidance on how to correct the problem. Your well water was tested for biological contaminants (total coliform and fecal coliform bacteria). The results were evaluated using the federal drinking water standards. Drinking water may contain substances that can occur naturally in water or can be introduced into water from man-made sources. Total coliform bacteria are found in soil and fecal coliform bacteria are found in animal and human waste. Total coliform or fecal coliform bacteria in well water indicate that the well may have structural problems or that the well was not properly disinfected. If you have been drinking the well water and are pregnant, nursing, have a child in the household under 5 years of age, or immunocompromised (such as an individual with AIDS, cancer, hepatitis, dialysis or surgical procedures) inform your physician of these results at your next visit. If the contamination continues, you should investigate the possibility of drilling a new well or installing a point-of-entry disinfection unit which can use chlorine, ultraviolet light, or ozone.
