plants.
This course is designed to train operators in the practical
aspects of operating and maintaining water treatment plants,
emphasizing safe practices and procedures. Information is
presented on the importance and responsibilities of a water
treatment plant operator, sources of water, reservoir management,
and intake structures. Operators will learn how to safely operate
and maintain coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation,
filtration, and disinfection processes. They will also learn to
control tastes and odors in drinking water, control corrosion to
meet the requirements of the Lead and Copper Rule, perform basic
water laboratory procedures, and solve arithmetic problems
commonly associated with water treatment plant operations. An
important segment of the course provides operators information on
overall plant operation and covers topics such as daily operating
procedures, regulation of flows, chemical use and handling,
records and reports, plant maintenance, safety and security,
emergency conditions and procedures, handling complaints, and
energy conservation.
