HDR Debuts Drinking Water Operations Wall Chart
In association with the American Water Works Association (AWWA), HDR’s water business group has developed and produced a new Drinking Water Operations wall chart to assist utility personnel with the operation and maintenance of their water systems.
The new wall chart includes reference tools and guidance information designed to improve system performance and achieve optimal water quality for both water treatment and distribution systems. More than 48,000 copies of the chart were distributed with AWWA’s June 2009 Opflow magazine.
“Many utilities know HDR for our Safe Drinking Water Act Update wall chart and expertise with drinking water regulations and water treatment systems,” said Gregory Kirmeyer, HDR’s national director of Drinking Water. "The new Drinking Water Operations wall chart provides a good overview of systems operation tools used and will serve as a quick reference to help educate and train utility staff. Our goal is for clients to post it in their offices, shops, and treatment plants like they have the SDWA Update chart,” he said.
The new Drinking Water Operations wall chart includes information on a variety of topics to assist in the daily operation of a water treatment plant as well as the distribution system, such as energy efficiency, optimizing energy usage at pumping facilities, jar testing, taste and color, best management practices, and steps to help implement a water loss reduction program.
