Název v původním jazyce
Protecting surface water for health. Identifying, assessing and managing drinking-water quality risks in surface-water catchments
Popis výsledku v původním jazyce
The book aims to provide practical guidance on identifying, assessing and managing risks related to surface water, as a basis for providing safe drinking-water and thus protecting public health. This text is one of a series of supporting documents that provide guidance on implementing the WHO Guidelines for drinking-water quality. It promotes close collaboration between the health and environmental sector in their endeavours to protect catchments. The information given here will be useful in the development and application of risk-management approaches to protect drinking-water resources. Based on a structured approach to understanding surface waters and their catchments, this book provides practical guidance on (i) analysing hazards to surface-water quality and pollution sources; (ii) assessing the risks the hazards may cause for a specific water supply; (iii) setting priorities in addressing the identified risks; and (iv) developing management strategies for the control of the risks. The target audience is primarily professionals in the health, environmental and water sectors, including government agencies, and it will be a useful resource for assessing catchment-related water-quality risks and safely managing such risks. This book may also assist water suppliers who wish to improve management of their water supplies in collaboration with those responsible for activities in the catchment. It does this by supporting integration of catchment-management and resource-protection aspects in overall water-supply management. Additionally, this publication may be a resource for professionals and students from other sectors, giving them a point of entry for understanding health aspects of surface-water management.
