Description: This webinar covers water quality parameters used to predict corrosive properties of raw and treated drinking water that can result in lead leaching into drinking water from customer plumbing.  The webinar also covers water treatment and water quality adjustments that can mitigate corrosion of water system piping and assist systems with meeting the requirements of the USEPA Lead & Copper Rule.  Attendees will walk through the factors and steps that lead to the Flint drinking water disaster which resulted in the public being exposed to high levels of dissolved lead. Regulatory Training Covers: Federal Regulations: USEPA: 1972 Surface Water Treatment Rule Arsenic Rule Filter Backwash Recycling Rule Groundwater Rule Interim Enhanced Surface Water Rule Lead & Copper Rule Disinfection Byproduct Rule(s) Long Term 1 Long Term 2 Public Notification Rule Stage 2 Total Coliform Rule California Regulations: Total Coliform Rule This webinar is 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm on January 20 and January 21.

This course Understanding Bacteriological Quality Standards is offered two times on the same day, attendees ONLY need to register once to take this course. Providing safe and affordable drinking water to customers is the primary objective of any drinking water system. Routine monitoring for bacterial contamination is one of the most effective indicators of a potentially hazardous condition in your system. Although waterborne disease outbreaks are relatively uncommon in the United States, the threat can be deadly. Missed routine and repeat samples are costly in many ways including time, lab fees, penalties and consumer confidence, not to mention the health risk to the public. Join us to learn or review the bacteriological standards required by both California State Total Coliform Rule (TCR) and Federal Revised Total Coliform Rule (RTCR). This workshop will address public water system standards for ensuring bacteriological quality through monitoring and reporting. Participants will learn: The importance of total coliform as an indicator of water quality Compliance with California state and federal bacteriological quality monitoring and reporting regulations Public Notification requirements Triggers and follow-up for Level 1 and Level 2 assessments

This course is now offered as an online training.
