My water test results say it contains UNSAFE levels of total coliform bacteria…..What does that mean???
• Coliforms are naturally-occurring bacteria commonly found in topsoil, surface water, sewage, and animal wastes (but NOT in properly constructed wells of adequate depth). • Presence of total coliform bacteria in your drinking water warns that a pathway exists through which contaminated surface water or shallow groundwater is entering your water supply. • Note: Fecal coliforms are a special type of coliform that originate in sewage or animal manure.
