OL - 51.1 - Sampling Procedures for the Surface Water Treatment Rule
(Sampling Procedures for SWTR)

OBJECTIVES

Upon completion of Section Four: Sampling Procedures for the Surface Water Treatment Rule, the learner should be able to:

 

1.         Identify whether or not a system needs to perform filtration.

2.         Determine the frequency of samples required of non-filtering systems for source water coliform monitoring.

3.         Collect appropriate samples for source water coliform analysis.

4.         Determine frequency of turbidity samples required for the turbidity monitoring as required by the SWTR.

5.         Determine the frequency of disinfection residual monitoring sampling as required by the SWTR.

6.         Collect appropriate samples for turbidity and disinfectant residual analysis.

7.         Determine turbidity and disinfectant residual using a continuous monitoring device with recorder.
