Hi,
I work in a bakery where we produced frozen baked products. I recently tested water for coliform count and got a positive number. Can we have any coliform count in our water?

b) Heterotrophic Plate Count (HPC) or Total Plate Count (TPC): principally used to indicate the effectiveness of water treatment processes such as filtration and disinfection. Values are acceptable up to about 100 cfu/100 ml.
What is an acceptable total plate count in drinking water?

City water cannot have Coliforms, however you may have Coliforms in your water - due to improper sanitation of water outlets.

That is not true ---when hydrants are flushed, and they used municipal water, everyone's water deteriorates due to film that builds up on the water lines
Not all drinking water standards are the same
They "shouldn't" have coliforms, but they might
