4 SANDY (O r * ) POST Thur* Sapf ,0 1981 (Sec I) A ld e r C reek W a te r Co. has p air of h earin g s set Two meetings are schedul ed in the next month to deter mine the fate of the Alder Creek Water Company, ac cording to federal and state water safety officials The five-system w ater company which serves the east slope of Mount Hood in c lu d e s S le e p y H o llo w , Wildwood Annex. Mount Hood Country Club, Barlow and Riverside Hon Hall, state Health Division investigator, and Larry Payette. Environinen tai Protection Agency water supply specialist, have been sampling water from the syste m s to d e te rm in e whether they constitute a health hazard The results of the testing w ill tie presented to residents and then to the Health Division. Hall said The company, owned by Gerald “ K ed" Bennett, was placed under the control of Gene Ginther of Beaverton in October 1‘JHO after two years of efforts by the EPA and Health Division to get Bennett to bring the systems up to m inim um state health standards A study done by the EPA and the U S Public Health Service about a year ago revealed the presence of pathogens in the water A m icrobiologist's study show ed the contaminants had the potential to cause interm it tent diarrhea or infections in people who are served by the water system large enough capacity He said Bennett was not adding enough chlorine and when the owner was asked to solve the problem , “ we didn't get any real coopera His recommendation is to rebuild the whole system "There are auto exhaust pipes and ship's pipe* used in parts of the system ," he said The only way that can be done, according to Ginther, is to form a county service d istrict "We only get $20 a month from 200 hook ups, and that's not enough to upgrade the systems,” he said. Marv Price, an employee of Ginther Engineering who handles a lot of the Alder Creek business, said the chances of getting a county service district are good "W e’re in hopes that they find it a health hazard and form the d is tric t," he said Such a district would be a d m in is te re d by the Clackamas County Commis sioners and county equip ment would be used to work on the system G in th e r s a id th e reconstruction would p ro bably lx* financed through bankruptcy bonds and Earm Home Administration funds Price said the EHA is the only way to get a subsidy for such projects He said the EHA offers tx»th grants and lo n g -te r m , low in te re s t loans "We are trying to do what is best for people in the area F o rm a tio n of a p u b lic system is the only way they w ill ever have an adequate water system ." he said “ I f God h im s e lf, o r herself, was in charge of that water system, it still would be impossible to operate it on a private basis," Price said tion.'* P a y e tte added, “ The system s are not up to m in u m u m w a te r w o rk s practices ” He said he has been collec ting samples lately to use in the health hazard deter m ination hearing that is adwdiiM for < Act 11 .it 10 90 a m at the Lions Club in Wemme “ We re in the middle of an a d m in istra tive process to determine whether the ad m inistrator of the Health Division should form a ser vice d is tric t," Hall said “ The county asked us to come in and conduct the stu d y," he said When the county did that it gave the H e a lth D iv is io n Ad m inistrator, K ristine Geb bie, the authority to decide the issue, he said Hall said the agency can form the district without a vote of the people or it can decide to leave the system as it is Hall said an open meeting w ith area re s id e n ts is scheduled at 7:30 p in on Sept 29 at the Lions Club in Wemme “ This is a chance to get questions answered that wouldn't be part of the hear mgs process," he said Ginther said last Thursday "there are a lot of people who don’t believe that the water's bad I guess we’ll just have to show them the tests ” Payette said the systems were poorly managed, were b u ilt w ith s u b s ta n d a rd materials and don't have a O FIREARMS s The club w ill honor its photographer of the year and offer cash and prizes in photo competitions Public photo exhibitions w ill also be held, as well as exhibitions T w o d o u b le M p u lle y s w ith L / oJ 3 6 fe e t of \O 7 /3 2 s e c u rity HD®?' m a n illa ro p e O i 9-ft.
