| Abstract |
Pilot plant research conducted in 1974 at Duluth, Minnesota, demonstrated that asbestiform fiber counts in Lake Superior water would be effectively reduced by municipal filtration plants. During the study, engineering data were also obtained for making cost estimates for construction and operation of both granular and diatomaceous earth (DE) filtration plants ranging in size from 0.03 to 30 mgd. This appendix contains a portion of the data collected in the study. The following categories of information are presented in Appendix A: (1) Weather and lake level data; (2) Operating schedule for pumps at the pumping station; (3) Chemical and physical quality parameters of raw and filtered water; (4) Dissolved oxygen content of raw and finished water; and (4) Bacteriological data for raw and finished water. |
