Layton City routinely monitors for drinking water contaminates throughout the City’s water system.  Regrettably, 12 percent of the samples taken in April 2021 showed the presence of total coliform bacteria.  The standard is that no more than 5 percent of samples may do so.  This is the first time the City’s water system has exceeded this drinking water standard.  This is not an emergency. If it had been, residents would have been notified immediately.  Coliform bacter
