U.S. EPA. Assessment of Relative Potential for Biological Threat Agent Exposure during Uses of Drinking Water. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Washington, DC, EPA/600/S-12/643, 2012.
Impact/Purpose:
Deliberate or accidental contamination of drinking water supplies could pose a major public health risk for water customers. Models based on HSRP’s water security modeling and simulation research indicate that pathogens injected directly into the drinking water system could result in significant exposures to end-use water customers, especially from ingestion.
