University of New Hampshire Small Water Systems Survey

Summary/Introductory Text

Prepared by WW

January 24, 2007

 

 

Small surface water treatment systems in many rural communities do not
operate as efficiently as desired

primarily due to the presence of high particulate and organic precursor
materials in the source water. The

extent and effectiveness of pre-treatment options for improving source
water quality is presently unknown,

and thus the overall goal of this project is to investigate current
source water treatment practices in order to

enhance the performance of subsequent treatment processes.

The information, collected via an online survey, will assist in the
promotion of sustainable drinking water

treatment infrastructure, and ultimately in the strategic planning of
financial resource allocation for

drinking water treatment infrastructure. It is linked to the USEPA
Strategic Plan under Goal 2 Clean and

Safe Water, Objective 2.1 Protecting Human Health, Sub-objective 2.1.1
Water Safe to Drink.

Your comments are valuable in generating a database to assist the UNH
Water Treatment Technology

Assistance Center in providing recommendations to the USEPA. The results
will contribute to the UNH

and USEPA's research to provide and enhance solutions for pre-treatment
needs in small water systems.

Results for this study will be posted on the UNH TACnet website
(http://www.unh.edu/erg/wttac/) and will

also be presented at various conferences and in journals.
