The Huron Expositor, 1982-09-01, Page 10No evidence of contamination
During the past spring there was beat
concern regarding reports of contaminated
well water in the vicinity of Walton, In
response to this concern the Grey township'
risked CANVIRO Consultants Ltd. of Kitch•
tuner to collect and analyse water samples on
( onccssion 17. between Walton and the farm
int Chris Lee to see which wells were
contaminated and to determine whether the
;,uric count ac the Lee's earthen manure
Water samples were collected April 23 and
June 9, for :hemical and bacteriological
,utalysis from 10 neighbouring water sources -
including eight wells (school and church in
Walton, Clark, Bennett. Finlayson drilled,
Finlayson dug, Lee and Newman). from a
surface pond on Lot 2, Concession 17 and
from a catch basin in Walton beside the
r,nit,,tc tracks. The chemical parameters
an:tltved by CANVIRO were pH, Sulphates
s1141, S1ecific Conductance, Nitrates 1 NO3),
t hluridrs
ICI). 'total' Organic Carbon ITOC)
and Ammonia (NH3). The samples were
analyzed bacteriologically for total conforms
and Ictal coliforms by the Labratory Services
Branch of the Ontario Ministry of Health. The
results for each of the neighbouring waters
were compared with the Drinking Water
Quality Criteria of the Ministry • of the
Environment and a report was presented to
Grey township council in July.
On August 10 the results were presented
by Richard Rush of CANVIRO Consultants
Ltd. at a special council meeting, to which
representatives of the. Ministry of the
Environment, Huron County Health Unit and
Ministry of Agriculture, and Food were
invited, along with localresidents.
In general there was no evidence of
chemical contamination such as salts or
nutrients in any of the well water samples
collected. All the well water samples were
within the •Ministry of the Environment
Drinking Water Quality Standards in that
regard. However, the Clark well and the
Finlayson dug well had high bacteria counts
and were reported by the Ministry of Health
as unsafe for drinking.
Observations that lead to the conclusion
that the well water contamination is probably'
not caused by the earthen manure storage but

b' problems on the individual farms such as
surface funoff, septic system leakage or
contamination during well repairs include:
-Chloride and ammonia, which _ are good
indicators of pollution from manure, were
found at low levels typical of clean drinking
water in Ontario, with no evidence of manure
contamination.
-The Clark well had high bacteria levels even
though it is farther from the manure storage
thin some of the uncontaminated wells-
-The Bennett well, the school well and the Lee
'well have reportedly had high bacteria counts
in the past but were uncontaminated at the
time of sampling.
-The Newman well had high bacteria counts
in the April sample but bacteria were not
detected in the June sample.
At the August 10 meeting it was learned
that the construction of the Lee well and the
Newman well has recently been changed to
prevent surface runoff into the well which had
uncured in the past. Mrs, Clark stated that
sonic work had been done on their well in
February and it is believed that the bacteria
were introduced to thea system at that time.
L�® car-_,
It was suggested that anyone concerned
about their drinking water quality should call
the Health Unit on the toll-free number
(1.800.625.4252) td arrange for a sample to be
taken. This is a service which has always been
availahle to the public upon request.
During the, same time period CANVIRO
has been preparing a plan of development
and operation for the Grey township waste
disposal site on Lot 4, Concession 18, and
several water samples have been tested there
to determine whether any contamination is
seeping from the site. Thereport has not yet
been submitted to council; however, the well
testing results have been completed. No
contamination has been found in any of the
wells tested in the Vicinity of the waste
disposal site. The complete report. which will
pro%ide an estimate of the life of the site, a
detailed plan, for filling and remaining area
within the site and an evaluation of the
existing and future groundwater contaminat-
ion potential, will be submitted to Grey
council in September.
