REIMER, HEALTH DIRECTOR(///' <br /> IRECTOR(///'�f ��l�" <br /> DATE: FEBRUARY 23, 1990 <br /> RE: CARDENS MOBILE HOME PARK SITE VISIT OF 2/23/90 <br /> On February 23, 1990, at approximately 2 p.m. , Paul Thames, <br /> Tony Laws, Ron Holdway and myself met with Authur Mouberry, <br /> Regional Supervisor and Larry South, Regional Manager, both <br /> of the North Carolina Department of Environment, Health and <br /> Natural Resources, Division of Environmental Management. Mr. <br /> Mouberry reviewed with, us the previously analyzed samples of <br /> effluent from the sand filter at the Cardens Mobile Home <br /> Park. Most of these samples were not in compliance with <br /> standards for such systems. Therefore Mr. Mouberry has taken <br /> decisive action to see that the owner of the park, Mr, Joel <br /> Williams, would discontinue discharging unacceptable effluent <br /> by installing a new system prior to April 30, 1990. Site <br /> preparation for a new package treatment plant was obviously <br /> underway and Mr. Mouberry is of the opinion that the owner <br /> will complete the project within the deadline. <br /> The test results collected so far are not sufficiently <br /> detailed to provide evidence of a health risk because they <br /> are indicators rather than definitive measures. Therefore I <br /> have requested that our Environmental Health Director, Tony <br /> Laws, obtain samples both from the drainage ditch and from <br /> the pooling of water behind the home of a neighbor by the <br /> name of Mr. Stephenson. These samples will be sent to the <br /> state laboratory for more definitive determination of <br /> pathogens. <br /> I have also requested that the quality of the community water <br /> supply system of the mobile home park be determined and that <br /> samples of the water supply be taken from the systems of any <br /> of the neighbors Mall,hbors who grant permission. <br /> SOUTHERN ORANGEDFFICE: Carr Mill Suite 225, 100 N.Greensboro St., Carrboro,N.C.27510, (919)942-4168 <br />
