Guidance on Cross Connection Control Pr...
Cross Connection Control programs using containment protection practices reduce the risk to the community from actual or potential contamination; however, internal backflow can occur because of cross connection at the point of use. In this webinar, risks and benefits of containment versus internal isolation programs will be assessed for hazard mitigation, and the responsibilities of both the administrative authority and the water purveyor will...

Improving Customer Relations Through Ad...
Many utilities are investing in AMI (Advanced Metering Infrastructure), however, no standards or published guidelines are available regarding customer leak notification. Some water utility managers are also concerned about loss of revenue and irritating customers. This webinar focuses on notifying metered customers of potential leaks or high usage through data generated with AMI. The establishment of thresholds for minimum leak volume or calcu...
Lessons in Chloramine Residual Management
Chloramination as a disinfection strategy in potable water systems provides benefits such as a lower potential for disinfection by-product formation and improved disinfectant longevity in distribution systems. The significant challenge, however, relates to the shifting chemical equilibrium among ammonia, chlorine, and chloramine species. Premature decay of chloramine compounds can release free ammonia into distribution systems and lead to nit...
