Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Thisguideto AWWA Standard G100 explains howto set and achieve goals, optimize plant performance on a continuous basis, and make ongoing improvements to your plant operations and management. It has been written as a guidance tool for the implementation of water treatment plant operation and management best practices, as set forth in ANSI/AWWA Standard G100, Water Treatment Plant Operation and Management (AWWA G100; 2011b). AWWA G100 is part of the voluntary management standards for water utilities, initially established in 2004._x000d_The original idea for the operational guide series to accompany the utility management standards came from utility managers who participated in a two-year pilot project that was conducted and supported by the American Water Works Association (AWWA) Utility Quality Programs Committee, the AWWA Accreditation Committee, and nearly 30 utility professionals from more than 10 North American utilities. The pilot project assessed the applicability and practicality of the series of AWWA utility management standards by working with two utilities--Birmingham (Ala.) Water Works and Sewer Board and Washington County (Va.) Service Authority--and a team of volunteers from utilities, consulting firms, and other organizations._x000d_During the pilot process, the utility managers requested that AWWA develop some type of guidance or how-to documents to go along with the management standards. These guidance documents would serve two purposes: one, help utility managers understand the purpose and function of these new standards, and two, help them implement and incorporate the standards into everyday operations. From this suggestion the series of operational guides was conceived.
