State Law
Three mobile home parks in
Brunswick County failed to notify
their customers that their water
systems had excessive coliform
bacteria during February, or that
their water had not been sampled at
all for the period. The information
uns released bv the N.C. Department
of I luntan Resources last week.
The Kl-Dorado Mobile Home Court
was one of five owners of a public
water system in North Carolina failing
to inform customers and the news
media that their water exceeded the
maximum level of contamination by
coliform bacteria.
I.eland Mobile Home Park and Patterson's
Mobile Home Park were
among owners of public water
systems in the state that failed to
notify customers and the news media

Federal and state laws require
sampling of drinking water monthly
for testing by a certified laboratory
to determine if there is contamination
A failure to test drinking water
doesn't necessarily mean the water
is contaminated, but it cannot U>
assume to lie safe without proper
testing, according to environmental
engineer John McKayden of the N.C.
Department of Human Resources.

Holiday Problems
The mayor read a letter from a
regular vacationer at Ocean Isle who
complained about the noise and
distractions caused by fireworks,
dogs, alcohol and speed limits on the
beach.
Gurganus said, "The dog situation
is thy best ever, and we have officers
in breathalyzer school right now, so
that's two of the problems taken care
of." He admitted all shooting of
fireworks had not been eliminated.
However, building inspector Druid
Kobison commented. "They confiscated
so many fireworks last
weekend, I was about to declare the
fire department unsafe, but you can't
get them nil."
The mayor and several commissioners
expressed their irritation
with the noise of fireworks all night.
Fox said. "It's not just vacationers,
though; residents are shooting them,
too.' Bullington said. "It's against
the law. but lots of people don't mind
violating that law and it's a bad example
for children to see."
Cable Woes
Gurganus reported that Brunswick
Klectric had put up new poles, but
could not take down the old ones until
cable lines are removed. This sparked
complaints from all quarters
about cable service. Board member
