These Guidelines have been designed to help those involved tn the assessment of emergency water sources to collect relevant information in a systematic way, to use this information to select a source or sources and to determine the appropriate level of treatment required 10 make the water suitable for drinking.
The guidelines, however, are not limited to the selection and treatment of water sources. The
Information collectled will also be useful for:
• the design and costing of the water supply system;
• the ordering of matenal and equipment;
• the organization of human resources; and
• the Implementation of the project.
A thorough assessment at an early stage will save valuable time later on. Specifically, the guidelines will:
• act as an aide-memoire to assessors;
• help to fill any knowledge gaps; and
• assist in the training of future assessors to undertake this occasional task, allowing them to learn from past experiences
The selection tools and guidelines are not a replacement for experience. They should be used wIth engineering judgement and intuition gained from experience of emergency responses. They are not intended to make the assessor a specialist in all the skill areas but to support a basic understanding. Reference has been made where specialist help may be required (eg. from a hydrogeologist or to interpret industrial pollution laboratory results). The assessor will need to study these documents and preferably have training in their use prior to using them in the field. A training pack has been developed to support this document and may be obtained from the authors.
