Published October 29, 2009 08:56 am - Okla. agencies: Bottled water, city lines needed LOCUST GROVE, Okla. (AP) — A state agency that helped investigate an outbreak of illness among Locust Grove restaurant customers stemming from the bacteria E. coli says in a new report that private-well users in the vicinity of the town shouldn't drink the water from those wells. The Department of Environmental Quality said users of private wells have three options if they don't want to take a chance of getting sick — drink and cook only with bottled or boiled water, hook up to a public water system, or install a full-fledged treatment system for the well. DEQ and the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food and Forestry looked at wells within a five-mile radius of Locust Grove after the deadly E. coli outbreak at the Country Cottage restaurant in August 2008. ___ Information from: Tulsa World, http://www.tulsaworld.com
