Water Distribution 1 & 2
This is the intermediate level course for water distribution systems. The text is the AWWA Water Supply Operations Series Water Distribution Level 1 and 2. Instructor: Cliff Fletcher
10 am to 12 pm This free class is an introduction to interpreting drinking water sampling results and how to write annual consumer confidence reports for community water systems. This class is a two-part series. Day one introduces interpreting drinking water sampling results on a data dump that is used to write CCRs. This includes common contaminants in surface and groundwater systems, their maximum contaminant level (MCLs) and impact on human health. Day two provides a walkthrough of the iWriter tool used to write consumer confidence reports, formatting and proofreading the CCRs and important due dates. By the end of this course students should have all of the necessary tools required to complete a CCR.
