E. Coli Found In Some Ross Drinking Water: Report

ROSS TOWNSHIP, PA - Some well water in the township has tested positive for E. Coli and residents don’t know where to turn for assistance.

Mary Peluso of Upper Arrowhead Road told KDKA-TV that the Allegheny County Health Department found E. Coli in the water as far back as 2016. But the West View Water Authority has estimated it would cost as much as $200,000 to connect the homes to its system.

Pelosi wants Allegheny County or the state Department of Environmental Protection to help, but the DEP told KDKA that it does not regulate private water wells.
