Officials still studying PTC water quality problems

Consultants

are still looking for the cause of bad-tasting water complaints from Peachtree

City Library and City Hall patrons last month.

"We'll

report back as soon as we have something," County Attorney Bill McNally

told members of the county Water Committee last week.

Fayette has

five wells that supplement the local water supply, and all of them have

been shut down while consultants study the Peachtree City problem, though

Parrott said only the Willow Bend well serves the library.

Some of the

other wells have had occasional quality and quantity problems, he said.

"Hopefully,

we'll get to the bottom of exactly what the situation is," said McNally.

It looks like

the well itself has been ruled out as the origin of metals in the water

that apparently caused the bad taste, he said.

"The preliminary

indication is problems within the building," said McNally. And although

there was never any danger from the water, McNally said, "We took

the actions we felt were necessary to do everything we could to make sure

problems complained of didn't continue."
