Of the seven wells that were tested, only one proved to have no contamination. The other six were over the limit for fecal coloforms, which are bacteria that indicat the presence of human waste. According to the tests, five wells showed a fecal coloform count of more than 100. DER said that a count of 100 in water would be enough to say that it was not even fit for swimming. Stanley Lehman, regional super- visor for DER, said that the big difference between this test and the last tests was rain. “The runoff shows that there is still bacteria in the ground,” said Lehman. “We will keep resampling and hoping that it will clear up.” Lehman said that it may be just amatter of time before the systems get cleared up. “Mr. Boice hasdone an outstanding job locating the sources of contamination and handling them. It is a matter of time and we have to keep waiting,” he said. Boice said that he will be out next week checking some out- houses in Warden Place. "We will be enforcing the borough's ordi- nance that says outhouses are not to be used,” said Boice. He said that any outhouses found to be in violation of the ordinance will have to be cleaned and filled. Boice also said that he is con- tinuing to make sure that all resi- dents who are supposed to be hooked up to the sewer line are connected. Boice said that it will be a long process to find all who are not hooked up, but he is confident that things are moving forward in trying to stop more contamination in the borough. For now, however, residents of Warden Place have to keep waiting and hoping. “I am very discour- aged,” says Bill Mann, who has been instrumental in dealing with the contaminated sewers. “After the last tests I hoped we had the situation under control,” said Mann. “Now we have got to get rid of the septic tanks and other things that are behind us and causing the problem.” Mann said that these latest results should let residents know that the best time to test a well for contamination is after a rainy period when there is runoff. “You just can’t rely on the results of a dry period,” he said. Mann also said that any resi- dent who wants ‘to have a well checked can contact him. Man dies in Jackson Twp. accident A Back Mountain resident is dead following a one car accident Monday in Jackson Township.

Jackson Township police say that Rosenthal’s car was discov- ered by a passing motorist at 4:43 a.m. Rosenthal, a student at Wilkes University in Wilkes-Barre, had moved to the area about 15 years ago. He is survived by his parents, a sister and a nephew. Jackson Township Police were assisted at the accident by Lehman Township police, the Pennsylva- nia State Police, the Jackson Township Ambulance and the Jackson Township Fire Depart- ment.
