Having attained the rank of fireman apprentice, Bill has been assigned to duty with the Coast Guard Training Center at Cape May, N.J. Local Public Health News The focus on hazardous chemicals in our environ ment has brought an in creased awareness and con cern for safe drinking water and proper sewage disposal in our rural county. Environ mental sanitarians of the Duplin County Health De partment not only enforce state laws that protect the public health, but are readily available to private concerns in all areas of construction and protection of water sup plies and sewage disposal systems. Requests for individual sampling of water supplies can be obtained through Sonny Sikes, chief environ mentalist with the depart ment. Private laboratories in the state, however, are avail able to sample and analyze anyone's private water sup ply or farm supply when no direct evidence exists that the supply is contaminated or poses a danger. To insure safe drinking water, all w ater supplies should be tested routinely to guard against sources of pollution such as farm chemicals, malfunction ing septic tanks or animal confinements, according to Joe Costin. director. "Water supplies should be located at least 50 feet from any source of pollution to protect wells used for drinking water," Costin said. He further recommends that each water supply owner conform to the state recommendations for well construction and protec tion if feasible. Waop ditnosal in rural ?- ? e>- 1 Duplin is accomplished by ,means of septic tank sys tems. These systems are installed, inspected by en vironmental inspectors, and subsequently often forgotten by the resident. Thus many such systems eventually fail and pose a very definite health threat, especially in populated areas. Environmentalist Ronnie Kennedy of the Health De partment, urged those with septic tanks to pump the system at least every three years and keep maintenance under watchful eyes. Add; tional nutrification lines are sometimes required to be installed after continued use if the system is abused by grease deposits, etc., or when normal use exceeds the capacity of the system. Ag ain, environmental sanitarians offer assistance to anyone in resolving prob lems of sewage disposal at no charge for this or any of their services. Working mothers have become the norm in our area; thus, the emphasis on proper day care for our children has increased in significance. Presently there are 19 li censed day-care facilities in Duplin County. These facili ties meet stringent require ments, and periodically in spections are conduued by health department inspectors to insure compliance with state licensing authority. Recent inspection visits have revealed an area in which the sanitarians feel there is a lack of knowledge and understanding by parents in general. Working mothers are reluctant at times to seek other care for their children outside the day-care centers when their children have severe colds, fever or other illness. Chil dren who are ill should not be admitted into a day-care center. Moreover, dav-care operators are required to refuse admission to anyone that is ill. Our day-care operaiors are justifiably con cerned and request parents become more aware of the potential for the spreading of communicable diseases to other children. Therefore, if your child is ill, please provide for alter nate care until he or she is well again before admitting them into a day-care center. For more information con cerning day-care centers, contact the Duplin County Health Department, 296-1015.
