Citation:
Impellitteri, C. Water Systems Project 1: Current Systems and Regulatory Support. BOSC SSWR Subcimmittee Meeting for Water Systems, Cincinnati, Ohio, August 24 - 25, 2016.
Impact/Purpose:
To share information with the SSWR BOSC Subcommittee for the Water Systems review.
Description:
Water Systems Project 1 objectives: 1) Supply research results to support federal regulations and guidance; 2) provide strategies to regions, states, and communities for improved regulatory compliance, and 3) provide rapid and effective emergency response where appropriate (e.g. water system shut-down due to source water contamination). These objectives include working with contaminants that undergo periodic congressionally-mandated regulatory cycles of review such as disinfection byproducts (DBPs) and those on the Contaminant Candidate List (CCL) as well as other contaminants of concern (including groups of contaminants). Other objectives include evaluating novel in-plant wastewater peak flow management technologies and processes for compliance with wastewater treatment regulations and their impact on pathogen control.
