Following a bacteriological analysis, which is NOT a usual correction for a well?

  1. Check for proper sealants and well cap

  2. Elevate the water table levels

  3. Ensure vent pipes have secured screening

  4. Fix loose equipment connections

  5. Regular sanitary inspections

  6. Use protective pipe covers

The correct answer is: Elevate the water table levels

In this case, "Elevate the water table levels" is the correct answer because it is not a usual correction for a well. It is not possible or advisable for a property owner or a well technician to control or adjust the water table levels as it is influenced by various factors such as rainfall, underground water sources, and natural geological formations. The other options provided are common corrections that can be made to ensure the safety and quality of the water supply from a well. Checking for proper sealants and well cap, ensuring vent pipes have secured screening, fixing loose equipment connections, conducting regular sanitary inspections, and using protective pipe covers are all practical steps that can be taken to maintain the well's integrity and prevent contamination of the water supply.
