Subject: Drinking water in Molalla - what part of DEQ is the oversight?b Importance: Normal
Hi Tiffany,
I found this post on Molalla Now this morning. What part of DEQ is oversight for drinking water issues for the City of Molalla? I hope DEQ will look into this. The woman said they use City of Molalla water:
**Edited to clarify what my son has is NOT a virus but seemed like that at first.** I know of 3 families including ours in Molalla that has contracted with a TERRIBLE sickness that has all the symptoms of the flu, but for poor immune systems could be very serious.
*My 4 year old son is the only one so far that has had this official diagnosis* but he has been hospitalized for 3 days now in Silverton and tests just came back saying he has "Cryptosporidium" with water being the most common way it spreads. This is NOT a virus after all. Has anyone else been extremely sick around here???
The City of Molalla was here within an hour of my calling them and is already taking samples of our water. They're being SO helpful - They've been the most competent professionals I've dealt with in 3 days."
Has Molalla reported this to DEQ? If not please consider this a report to DEQ to look into what is happening here.
Susan
