Safe Water From Every Tap by Committee on Small Water Supply Systems,Commission on Geosciences, Environment and Resources,Division on Earth and Life Studies,National Research Council Pdf
Small communities violate federal requirements for safe drinking water as much as three times more often than cities. Yet these communities often cannot afford to improve their water service. Safe Water From Every Tap reviews the risks of violating drinking water standards and discusses options for improving water service in small communities. Included are detailed reviews of a wide range of technologies appropriate for treating drinking water in small communities. The book also presents a variety of institutional options for improving the management efficiency and financial stability of water systems.
