This quarters Employee Spot-light, focuses on the newest member of the XC2 family- Sara Winston Engle! Sara most recently came from working with a non-profit land trust and wildlife preserve in Montana. She is a Northern California na-tive and has recently joined the XC2 crew after a varied career including ownership of several small companies (a hand-woven textile company, an emergency medical response service and an auto brokerage firm) as well as administration of others. She loves the entrepreneurial atmosphere at XC2 and the way everyone looks so good in the different hats they wear!
“Every day I learn more about the water industry and am amazed at how much people take for granted about the quality of our water!” Sara comments when asked her thoughts on the industry. Sara loves to travel and has lived in three states, Spain and New Zealand. She also loves to make beautiful music on several music synthe-sizers in her home and is having fun exploring styles of painting. Sara is a happy, fun person, that we are sure you will enjoy work-ing with.

BFP FOG VALVE HYDRANT METER
In May 1994, more than 1,000 people attended a convention in Columbus, Ohio. About two weeks after the convention was over, a small number of call started coming into the health department. All of the callers as-sumed that they had contacted food poisoning at restaurants at the convention. Giardia was ultimately blamed for the illnesses. It has an incubation period of five days to two weeks. Its symptoms can be subtle, depending
upon one's resistance. Symptoms included diarrhea, intestinal cramps, and nausea.
The health department inspected the restaurants and did not find any problems. As more calls were re-ceived, it was realized that the callers had all been at the same convention. The health department interviewed the people attending the convention. The health department mailed 1,200 surveys to those attending the con-vention will an itemized list of every food served. When the surveys were returned, a statistical analysis
showed no correlation.
The first survey did not include beverages. A second survey on beverages showed that people who had
drinks with ice at one particular cocktail party were likely to become sick.
An inspection found an ice machine. The unit had a dematerializing filter with a drain hose directly con-
nected into a floor drain.
