: Cryptosporidium BlogEPA Forces Small Towns And Rural Water Systems To Test For E coli And Crypto
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has brought certain California small towns and rural water systems into compliance for testing of E. coli, which can indicate the presence of cryptosporidium, a pathogen than can caused intestinal illness.
The company town of Scotia's water system is one such place.
According to the Times-Standard published in Eureka:
Scotia was one of 10 California towns and agencies which hadn't yet complied with a new federal regulation to test the source of its public drinking water system. It was supposed to begin monitoring for E. coli on Oct. 1. When it didn't, the EPA ordered it to start the program or face up to $32,500 a day for each violation.
”Since we issued the order they did come into compliance,” said EPA spokeswoman Mary Simms.
Scotia dates back to 1863. It was created as a "company town" by Pacific Lumber, known by the locals as PL, around the world's largest redwood mill. Go here for more.
