Ohio AWWA Section's Technology Committee helps utilities save millions

摘要

Major capital-cost savings have been achieved in Ohio during the past two decades by the cities of Cleveland, Cincinnati, and Columbus as a result of guidelines produced by Ohio AWWA's Technology Committee. Ohio AWWA and the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (OEPA) have for nearly 20 years been jointly developing guidelines that provide agreed-upon criteria by which technologies (i.e., those addressed in the Ten-State Standards [TSS] but with alternate design criteria or those not addressed in the TSS) are approved while continuing to appropriately consider public health concerns.
