The Milton Water Office received a single source complaint yesterday of coliform present in a water sample taken at a residence. Although we test for coliform several times a month per state requirement, additional water samples were taken yesterday from that single source as well as from surrounding areas and sent to the testing facility used by the West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources, Bureau for Public Health. A representative from the Department of Health and Human Resources stated yesterday that a boil water advisory was not recommended unless subsequent testing indicated the presence of coliform. Test results received this morning showed coliform absent in all samples. Again, no coliform was found in any of the water samples.
