Little Canada funicipal Water Supply <br />February 17, 1982 <br />Recommendations: <br />1. A meter should be installed for the booster station. <br />2. A comprehensive program of cross - connection surveillance should be instituted . <br />to protect the municipal water supply. This should include: <br />a. The detection and correction of cross - connections to unsafe water <br />supplies. <br />b. The education of the public on the dangers of cross- connections. <br />c. The installation of vacuum breakers on all threaded hose.bibbs in <br />new and old buildings. <br />d. The replacement of defective plumbing in older buildings. <br />e. Periodic cross- connection inspections of potentially hazardous <br />industries and commercial establishments. <br />3. Based upon the analyses for fluoride from a sample taken at the City Hall, an <br />adequate residual is not maintained. The City should .consider acquiring a, <br />test kit and checking the fluoride residual periodically. If the residual <br />is not within the acceptable limits, the City of St. Paul should be.informed _ <br />such that the chemical feed rates can be adjusted. <br />4. The opportunity for additional training in water supply work should be made <br />available to the operator. Attendance at the annual waterworks operators <br />seminar, held in the area, is a valuable experience for anyone engaged in . <br />this field. <br />David B.
