    This document provides information about testing water for coliform bacteria. It notes that most water contains harmless photosynthetic and decomposing bacteria, but pathogens can also be present. When testing water, enterobacteriacae are checked for as they can indicate the presence of coliform bacteria. If coliform bacteria are found, further testing is required. The source is an article from the website Facts on File Inc. accessed on April 12, 2011.

     Most water in towns and cities has bacteria that is photosynthetic
    and decomposers, however, pathogens can live in the water too
     When testing water, enterobacteriacae can be found, members of
    this group can be used to find coliform, if coliform is found, further
    testing will occur
