Services clubhouse, restaurant, shop, maintenance shed, residence. System is as follows: Well ? Air Tank ? Filter (Big Blue Aqua Flo 20") ? UV (VIQUA PRO 20 NSF 55A) ? Distribution. Recent and historical analysis show in raw water elevated colour, low transmittance, elevated iron and elevated manganese - levels do not exceed MACs from Canadian Guidelines for Drinking Water Quality however colour and manganese is in exceedance of AO. Operator has noted patron aesthetic complaints and is offering bottled water. Operator is proposing to install Point of Use (POU) systems to address aesthetic concerns (in talks with water treatment specialist). Elevated parameters prior to UV unit do need to be treated/removed to ensure effective use of UV unit. Submit Construction Permit Waiver applications for this department to review. If the installations are to be 'phased in', please specify. Most recent bacteriological sample (monthly) came back acceptable.
