| Abstract |
The study called for testing inclusively 25 strains of human enteric viruses for their resistance to free chlorine in partially treated Potomac water. A portion of the NEWS study is to explore the feasibility of using Potomac river water as an alternative source of supplementary water supply for the metropolitan area of Washington, D.C. after the year 2000. Should the river water be used for such a purpose at that time, viral pollutants would seem to present a potential health hazard to the public. It is hoped that from this study a clarification and/or solution of this problem may be obtained. |
