Rotary Club was going to
purchase a pitching machine
for the Little League.
Motion by Councilman

carried naming the new softball

honor of W.J.P. Earnhardt, Jr.,
who serve as Town Attorney for
disease-producing bacteria
in drinking water, coliform
bacteria is normally found
in the intestinal tract of man
or other warm blooded
animals, can be readily
detected, and its presence is
used to indicate that some
contamination has oc
curred.
The public has a right to
know the quality of the
water it drinks; therefore,
when drinking water
samples from a system
contain coliform bacteria in
excess of the maximum
contaminant level the
customers need to be aware
that this has occurred.
Exceeding the limit one
month does not necessarily
mean there is a drinking
water emergency; that
depends on the source of the
problem and how quickly
the utility corrects the
problem Customers should
contact their utility to en
sure that the situation has
been investigated and
properly corrected.
Several public water
supplies in this area ex
ceeded the maximum
contaminant for coliform
bacteria in October and
have not advised the
Department of Human
Resources that proper
public notice was given.
They are Town of Kelford,
and White’s Beach in Bertie
County and Town of
Gatesville and Sunbury
Water Works in Gates
County.
Public water supplies at
White’s Beach have also
"exceeded the 4 maximum
contaminant level for two or
more months, indicating
that the problem has not
been corrected, that con
tamination has recurred,
or that the system may have
a serious sanitary defect.
Continued bacteriological
contamination may con
stitute a hazard to the health
of the customers. Customers
of these systems may desire
to take individual protective
action until the con
tamination is corrected or it
is proven that there is no
health risk;
