DRINKING WATER NOTICE

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR DRINKING WATER

Operator Certification Requirements Not Met
for Forest Park, PWS ID#: DE0000590

The Division of Public Health, Office of Drinking Water (ODW) regulates our drinking water system. The State of Delaware requires that our water system have a licensed water operator. Even though this is not an emergency, as our customers, you have a right to know what happened and what we are doing to correct this situation.

We are required to hire or contract with a licensed operator. We have not done this and therefore cannot be sure that our water system is operated correctly.

What should I do?

There is nothing you need to do at this time.

What happened? What is being done?

We failed to hire a licensed operator as required in the State of Delaware Regulations Governing Public Drinking Water Systems and the Safe Drinking Water Act. We will be hiring or contracting with a licensed operator as soon as possible and expect to have this situation corrected within one month.

For more information, please contact Ms. Helen Cropper at (302) 934-8556 or Sharon Scheers, Environmental Health Specialist II, Office of Drinking Water at (302) 741-8630.

Please share this information with all the other people who drink this water, especially those who may not have received this notice directly.  You can do this by posting this notice in a public place or distributing copies by hand or mail.
