Dear Mr. Tankard,
On behalf of Carolina Water Service, Inc. of NC (CWSNC), please accept this letter in response to the
Fairfield Harbour Notice of Violation, Tracking Number NOV-2024-LV-0422.
On February 14, 2024, Carolina Water Service, Inc. of NC took a weekly routine enterococci compliance
sample at the Fairfield Harbour Wastewater Treatment Facility. Laboratory analysis determined that the
enterococci sample collected exceeded the daily maximum limit with a result of 373.
Upon investigation it was determined that the operator who took the enterococci sample used a sample bottle
that had been contaminated with rainwater that had leaked into the sample cooler. Proper sampling
techniques were discussed with the operator to prevent contamination of compliance sample bottles to
prevent further compliance related issues.
If you need additional information, please feel free to contact me at 312-965-3728, or by email at
