Abstract | The manual is designed to help owners and operators of small non-public water supplies that are not subject to Federal regulation but nonetheless share similar water quality problems. Federal standards are briefly discussed as are the institutions that support water suppliers. Like the predecessor document, 'Manual of Individual Water Supply Systems' (EPA-570-9-82-004, 1982), the manual contains practical information for building safe and sustainable safe water systems. The manual is updated with current technology information. Coverage includes the basics of water purification by disinfection and filtration; package plants; corrosion control; desalting; household treatment units; solar-, wind-, and hand-powered pumping devices; sanitary water catchment; defluoridation; conservation; and other subjects. |
