Daniel,

This letter is written on behalf of the Buncombe County Schools to provide information
as to remedial action taken to the above referenced facility in reference to NOV letter
dated 4-23-24 attached.

Per your letter we exceeded the daily maximum limit for fecal coliform on 3-5-24 with a
460 #/100ml over the 400 #/100ml daily limit.

The operator noted the chlorine residual in the chlorine contact chamber was 2.0 ppm
prior to the dechlorination tablets. We asked the testing laboratory to confirm the result
which they did.

We will continue to adjust as needed for full compliance.

Robert Barr
