Former Dolton Certified Water Operator Charged With Falsifying Drinking Water Sampling Data

Chicago —(ENEWSPF)–June 15, 2015.  A former Dolton certified water operator was indicted last week on charges that, for several years, he routinely falsified paperwork to make it appear that Dolton was properly sampling its drinking water for microbiological contaminants. Dolton purchases its drinking water from the City of Chicago, which treats Lake Michigan water. However, Dolton is still required to test its drinking water for the presence of coliform bacteria in order to ensure that it has not become contaminated locally.
