Greelish stated this Board has not received a copy of the samples <br /> taken at the hydrant. <br /> Mr. Scipione stated one sample was 21 the other 41 . <br /> Dr . DeMou a questioned as to whether it would be possible to isolate <br /> some fixture not normally sampled and perhaps address the ph on a small <br /> scale. <br /> Mr. Hanlon responded they did consider isolating a certain part of the <br /> school building, shutting it off from the main water feed, feeding it from <br /> a different i i rent i on or different source of water- and commented its like <br /> searching for a needle in a haystack. Mr. Hanlon stated they are -trying to <br /> look ..f r. )- a _. solution not necessarily what the problem is. <br /> Mr. Hall stated if corrosion is a problem on the cape then why aren't <br /> e seeing it at all the schools. <br /> Mr. Hanlon state based on the data available at the present time corro- <br /> sion appears to be the problem. <br /> Mr. Costa questioned Mir.
