We will make sure that the City follows up with the neighbors and responds to Ms. Hansen.

Best,

Hi Mark

I should have cc’d you on this. I just left a phone message asking Jennifer Cline to not lonely do this follow up with the Burleys and anyone else, but to also reply directly to Susan Hansen. It is not appropriate for DEQ to be the intermediary in answering Susan’s questions about action the city is required by permit to take.

Jennifer and Dan,

As we have discussed before, it is the City's responsibility to notify people. Please follow up with the Burleys. Going door to door may be useful to determine which properties have access to Bear Creek even if they do not have wells or surface water intakes.

Tiffany,

Can you please take a look at Susan's email below? Is there anything DEQ should be doing in response or as a follow up?

Thanks!

Dear Nina and Joni,

Below is a link to a map that shows where an elderly couple, the Burley's, live just downstream on Bear Creek from the Molalla wastewater plant at 12304 Toliver Road, outside the city limits. I marked the location of their approx. 60 foot deep well. The Burley's told me this afternoon there has been to date NO NOTIFICATION to them about the Molalla raw sewage spill into Bear Creek. Is DEQ going to do anything about that? I would certainly think that any well this close to the plant and to Bear Creek should be checked or at the very least the City of Molalla should have notified them of the raw sewage that got in Bear Creek.

There are other residences just across Toliver Road that from the wasterwater plant that are also rural and likely have wells. They are on slightly higher ground but given the proximity to Bear Creek I would guess they also have shallow wells. Who is going to check that all these domestic wells aren't contaminated?
