Shady Cove's private-well universe includes shallow wells and surface-influenced springs where bacteriological contamination is plausible after heavy rain, snowmelt, or septic events. After any positive total coliform or E. coli result, OHA recommends shock chlorination plus permanent disinfection.

NSF/ANSI 55 Class A UV — 40 mJ/cm² validated dose — is the standard residential answer, paired with sediment and carbon prefiltration. Annual lamp replacement is required.
