The presence of Cryptosporidium sp. in Czech drinking water sources was monitored. High numbers of Cryptosporidium oocysts were found in the Slezska Harta reservoir after 1997 summer floods. The influence of iron (III) coagulant dose, mixing conditions and preozonation on the removal efficiency of Cryptosporidium oocysts was studied. Low mixing intensity produced flocs with poor settling features. The efficiency of sedimentation expressed as residual iron after sedimentation was proportional to removal efficiency of oocysts. Both underdosing or overdosing of iron (III) coagulant resulted in decrease of COD, turbidity and oocyst removal. Preozonation positively influenced removal efficiency of oocysts in the conventional drinking water treatment train studied.

A comprehensive fractionation technique was applied to a set of water samples obtained along a real drinking water treatment plant with ozonation and granular activated carbon (GAC) treatment to obtain detailed profiles of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and to evaluate the haloacetic acid (HAA) formation potentials of these DOM fractions. The results indicated that ozonation and GAC treatment showed limited ability to remove hydrophilic fractions (23%), while removal of hydrophobic fractions was 72%. The contribution of hydrophilic fractions to HAA formation increased from 30 to 61% along the treatment train because of better removal for hydrophobic fractions both in concentration and reactivity. Similar trends were also found for trihalomethanes.

Abstract The Drinking Water Surveillance Program (DWSP), developed by the Ontario Ministry of the Environment, is an assessment project based on standardized analytical and sampling protocol. This program was recently instituted in response to a series of contaminant occurrences in the St. Clair-Detroit River area of Southwestern Ontario. This paper outlines the details and goals of the program and provides information concerning micro-contaminants in drinking water at seven drinking water treatment plants in Southwestern Ontario.
