E. coli Bacteria in Rivers | Aging Septic Systems

A recent article in the Detroit Free Press identified some very real concerns about the link between Aging Septic Systems and E. coli Bacteria. A 2015 study found trace amounts of E. coli from human feces had entered all of the rivers that were tested. Unlike Minnesota, the state of Michigan does not have a statewide monitoring system for their nearly one and a half million Individual Waste Disposal Systems.
