| Abstract |
The document gives an account of the Small Water System Technology Initiate as it was demonstrated in the Community of Freestone, California. This community's water system was selected because its size is characteristic of many small water systems, and because of its water quality problems - an unfiltered source, high effluent turbidity and iron. The EPA installed a dual-stage pressure filtration unit in order to reduce turbidity, reduce iron concentration, and still meet the community's water demands of 16,560 gallons per day. The costs of the new system, estimated to be $7.56 per gallon of water delivered, were within EPA estimations. The document provides a description of the performance of the dual stage filtration system, an analysis of costs involved, and an evaluation of institutional and programmic arrangements. |
