(KLZA)-- Results from testing of water in Humboldt this past Saturday indicate that two of the tests detected coliform, but in very low numbers.
The city is now chlorinating the system in order to eliminate the bacteria. The idea is to use enough chlorine to kill the bacteria, without the chlorine being noticeable to customers.
In a release from the city, they note that it will take a few days to distribute the chlorine throughout the entire system, so Humboldt water customers should continue to follow the boil water advisory.
Once the entire system has been chlorinated, the city will need to complete another two rounds of sampling.
