| Abstract |
The EPA Drinking Water Subcommittee completed its review of scientific information supporting EPA's efforts to develop rules for filtration (surface and surface water treatment) and coliforms. The Subcommittee made the following recommendations to the Agency: using total coliforms as the primary standard is reasonable; EPA should be more specific regarding the disinfection requirements to be used following filtration; a guidance document should be developed to accompany the proposed surface water treatment rule that would stress raising the concentration of chlorine to meet the need for contact time; and, additional research is needed, such as that dealing with treatment techniques for legionellosis. |
