Governmental Affairs director Louie Pitt came across this photograph,
found at Wasco County Museum at The Dalles.
The location of the tree is about a mile up Mill Creek in The Dalles. It is
on property called the Treaty Oaks Orchard, formerly owned by Jean Peterson.
Some time ago Louie visited the site, which at the time had the old dead oak
still standing. The the last time he went to site the dead stump had been
removed and regular trees planted.
One of the displays at the Museum at Warm Springs is also believed to be
from the old tree, and a gavel and base made from the oak are displayed in the
administration lobby. The caption of this photograph reads:
‘The Treaty Oak on the Denton-Nielson place on Mill Creek. The 1855
Indian Treaty was signed here, and which Theodore Mesplie witnessed along
with Charlie Denton and Lafayette Caldwell, who were his only neighbors in
1855, on Mill Creek.’

What is being done?
Water treatment plant
operators have been work-
ing in conjunction with the
engineers and staff from
Indian Heath Services to
resolve the issues at the wa-
ter treatment plant, and have
recalibrated turbidity meters
on December 6. We are
currently jar testing to de-
termine the best chemical
and dosage available to treat
the raw water. We are also
working under the advisory
of the Environmental Pro-
tection Agency and the Or-
egon Health Authority to
minimize any event(s) in the
future.

Please share this infor-
mation with all the other
people who drink this wa-
ter, especially those who
may not have received
this notice directly (for ex-
ample, people in apart-
ments, nursing homes,
schools and businesses).
You can do this by post-
ing this notice in a public
place, or distributing cop-
ies by hand or mail.
This notice is being
published by the Warm
Springs Water System.

SWTRs Turbidity Exceedence Notice
Important informa-
tion about your drink-
ing water
War m Springs Wa-
ter System PWS
ID#104101247—Did
not meet treatment re-
quirements—Turbid-
ity.
Our water system re-
cently violated a drinking
water requirement. Al-
though this was not an
emergency, as our custom-
ers, you have a right to
know what happened,
what you should do, and
what we did, and are do-
ing, to correct the situa-
tion.
We routinely monitor
your water for turbidity
(cloudiness). This tells us
whether we are effectively
filtering the water supply.
Water samples for October
2018 showed that 13.77
percent of turbidity mea-
surements were over 0.3
turbidity units (NTUs)—
the standard is that no more
than 5 percent of samples
may exceed 0.3 turbidity
units per month. The tur-
bidity levels are relatively
low. However, their pres-
ence is a concern. Normal
turbidity levels at our plant
are 0.3 units.
What should I do?
There is nothing you
need to do. You do not
need to boil your water or
take other actions. We do
not know of any contami-
nation, and none of our
testing has shown disease-
causing organisms in the
drinking water.
If you have a severely
compromised immune sys-
tem, have an infant, are
pregnant, or are elderly, you
may be at increased risk and
should seek advice from
your health care providers
about drinking this water.
General guidelines on ways
to lessen the risk of infec-
tion by microbes are avail-
able from EPA’s Safe
Drinking Water Hotline at
1-800-426-4791.
What does this mean?
This is not an emer-
gency. If it had been, you
would have been notified
within 24 hours.
Note: Turbidity has no
health effects. However, tur-
bidity can interfere with dis-
infection and provide a me-
dium for microbial growth.
Turbidity may indicate the
presence of disease causing
organisms. These organisms
include bacteria, viruses,
and parasites which can
cause symptoms such as
nausea, cramps, diarrhea,
and associated headaches.
These symptoms are not
caused only by organisms in
drinking water. If you expe-
rience any of these symp-
toms and they persist, you
may want to seek medical
advice.

please contact Travis Wells,
