There was no cause to suspect any contamination during the
year.
There are four dwellings in Enfield which receive their water
supply other than from a public company ; these are under constant
supervision.
There are no houses in the district which receive their water
supplies by means of standpipes.
The question of well-water supplies, both in connection with
dwelling-houses and industrial premises, throughout the district has
received the careful attention of the Department during the year,
and every care has been exercised to see that such supplies are not
used for drinking purposes where mains water supply is available,
and during the year fourteen samples of well water were examined
bacteriologically and three chemically.
