SUMMARY:Operation and Maintenance of Groundwater Systems
DESCRIPTION:Description\nGroundwater system operators have many tasks to accomplish to operate and maintain their water systems. We will review administrative tasks such as sampling and monitoring\, consumer confidence reports\, chemical monitoring waivers\, source protection\, operation and maintenance manuals\, monthly operating reports\, operator certification and sanitary surveys. \nOperation and maintenance of groundwater sources is a very important part of providing safe drinking water to consumers. Ensuring sustainability by performing drawdown tests on groundwater wells will help you to know how sustainable your groundwater source is. Operating your disinfection system and understanding the chlorination process is key to providing safe water that consumers find palatable. \nWater distribution systems can often be a contamination vulnerability. Maintenance items such as flushing\, valve exercising\, and hydrant maintenance are of the utmost importance. \nCredit\n3 TCH (Water)\nTreatment Category 2\, Distribution Category 2 | Learn more \nInstructor\nPaula Jackson (Vermont Rural Water Association)
