Congratulations to Pennsylvania American Water's 18 Plants
for receiving the Directors Award for 10 Years in the PfSW
Program!!!
Pennsylvania American Water
has received national awards at 18 of its plants for
maintaining the Directors Award of recognition from the
Partnership for Safe Water, a national volunteer initiative
developed by EPA and other water organizations. These
represent water suppliers striving to provide their
communities with...
drinking water quality that surpasses the required federal
standards.
The Directors Award is presented to water systems who have
completed a successful review in the Partnership’s
Self-Assessment and Peer Review phase, a phase in which
utilities examine the capabilities
of their treatment plant operation and administration and
then create a plan for implementing improvements. Eighteen
of our facilities have maintained the Directors Award for
ten years, an honor achieved by only 32 water utilities
across the country.

The North
East Borough Water Department Water Treatment Plant joins the
Partnership for Safe Water
The North East Borough Water Plant, located
in Erie County, recently became the newest member of the Partnership for Safe
Water program, a voluntary effort to provide safe drinking water. Presently,
the water system provides drinking water service to approximately 9,200 people.
The North East Borough Water Plant is currently the only plant in Erie County to
be a member of the national program.
The Partnership for Safe Water is made up
of DEP, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the Pennsylvania Section
American Water Works Association (PA-AWWA) and other drinking water
organizations. Its goal is to implement preventative measures that are based on
optimizing treatment plant performance.
The program is specifically geared toward
identifying weaknesses in plant operation, design and administration that could
lead to a breakthrough of waterborne disease-causing organisms into the finished
water that is distributed to consumers. Correcting these weaknesses helps
prevent waterborne disease outbreaks from pathogenic organisms like
Cryptosporidium and Giardia.
By participating in the program, the North
East Borough Water Department is working to provide an additional measure of
protection to drinking water consumers.
Currently, 114 surface water treatment plants
serving more than six million people are now involved in Pennsylvania's
Partnership program.

DEP Recognizes Aqua Pennsylvania for Efforts in Safe
Drinking Water Program
 SPRINGFIELD,
Delaware Co. (Nov. 20) – The Department of Environmental
Protection presented Aqua Pennsylvania with eight awards
today for its efforts to provide high quality drinking
water as a member of the Partnership for Safe Water, a
nationwide program.
“Everyone understands the value of safe drinking water,”
said Regional Water Supply Manager Nancy Roncetti.
“Today, Aqua Pennsylvania has made a commitment to
888,000 customers in four counties to provide the best
possible water it can. I’m pleased to recognize Aqua
Pennsylvania for its efforts.”
Roncetti presented Aqua Pennsylvania with membership
certificates for eight water filter plants entering
Phase I of the Partnership for Safe Water, a national
voluntary effort that encourages public water systems to
survey their facilities, treatment processes, operations
and management practices.
“Aqua Pennsylvania’s commitment of eight facilities to
the program secures Pennsylvania’s place as the national
leader in the Partnership for Safe Water,” said Roncetti.
The Partnership for Safe Water consists of DEP, the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency, the American Water
Works Association and other drinking water
organizations. Of the 406 facilities participating in
the program nationwide, 104 are located in
Pennsylvania. The goal of the partnership is to
encourage facilities to go beyond regulatory compliance
in their continuing efforts to ensure the safest public
drinking water possible.
The partnership is set up in four phases and is based on
optimizing treatment plant performance and preventing
disease-causing organisms from entering public drinking
water supplies.
The first phase of the partnership is the initial
commitment to join. The second phase involves data
collection, analysis and submission. The third phase is
a self-assessment and development of a detailed report
and action plans to correct problems, while the final
phase is an on-site peer review.

Williamsport
Municipal Water Authority gets national honor
By R.A. WALKER

POSTED: November 4, 2008
Courtesy of Williamsport Sun-Gazette and SunGazette.com
Faucets in this city deliver top-quality drinking water,
according to the American Water Works Association.
The Pennsylvania Section of the American Water Works
Association sent one of its top officials to the Williamsport
Municipal Water Authority's Mosquito Valley filtration plant
Monday to present an award for excellence.
Diane Foster Cox, AWWA Pennsylvania Section project
administrator, attended a mid-day luncheon at the plant honoring
the facilities operators and supervisors for "successfully"
completing the first three phases of its Partnership for Safe
Water program and earning the "Crystal Water Drop" award, also
known as the "Directors Award of Recognition."
The award signifies that the plant is providing water that
surpasses state and federal requirements under the guidance of
Larry Bennett, plant superintendent.
According to Bennett, the authority's 52,000 customers
receive water that is superior to that found elsewhere on many
levels.
"The clouding of the water leaving this plant is way below
what the state requires," he said, giving one example.
Bennett has been superintendent of the facility for 12 years.
Others at the ceremony were members of the authority's board
and representatives from the state Department of Environmental
Protection, among them Joseph F. Sulikowski, sanitation
supervisor-district office manager for water supply management.

of enrolling additional filter plants in the program. This is a compensated and
part-time position. If you have a strong background in optimizing surface water
treatment plant operations, are knowledgeable and supportive of the PfSW, are
proficient with Word, Excel, and the internet, have good people skills and a

PARTNERSHIP FOR SAFE WATER NEWS:
Pennsylvania American Water Receives National Award for
Ongoing Safe Water Practices
Five Years of Successful Participation Merits Recognition
for Susquehanna Treatment Plant
(Hershey,
Pa.) – September 28, 2006 - Pennsylvania American Water
recently received nine national awards—including one
for its Susquehanna water treatment plant—for maintaining the Partnership for
Safe Water’s Directors Award requirements for five consecutive years.
The Partnership for Safe Water is a national volunteer initiative developed by
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the American Water Works
Association (AWWA) and other organizations representing water suppliers.
The Directors Award is presented to water systems that have successfully
completed a rigorous review in the Partnership’s
Self-Assessment and Peer Review phase. During this phase,
participating utilities identify areas of possible improvement in plant design,
operation and management and then create a plan for implementing these
improvements.
To receive the five-year award, utilities must carry out
these improvements and deliver water that not only meets drinking water
standards, but surpasses what is required by regulation, for five consecutive
years.
Pennsylvania American Water signed the Partnership agreement
with the EPA and Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) in February of
1996, thereby declaring the company’s dedication to achieving the program goals.
The Partnership currently includes more than 200 water utilities, collectively
serving more than 85 million people nationwide. To date, 33 water treatment
plants received the five-year award in Pennsylvania, 28 of which – or 82% – are
Pennsylvania American Water facilities. All 35 of Pennsylvania American Water’s
water treatment facilities are enrolled and in various phases of the Partnership
program.
“Maintaining Directors Award status for five
years demonstrates Pennsylvania American Water’s ongoing commitment to
optimizing treatment processes and providing high-quality water to customers,”
said Dan Warnock, Pennsylvania American Water president. “Working as a team over
the years, our employees have achieved this high mark of distinction. They are
the driving force behind our success, and I am thrilled that they have achieved
this national recognition. It is well-deserved.”

Partnership Phase III
Self-Assessment
Much More Than a Turbidity Goal
by Ed Chescattie,
PA DEP Water Treatment Program Specialist |
|
The Partnership for
Safe Water, a voluntary optimization program for surface water
utilities, is usually recognized for its < 0.1 ntu finished water
optimization goal. But the Partnership is about much more than
simply meeting a turbidity goal. Unless you've successfully worked
through Phase III of this program, you're not likely to realize the
numerous benefits the Partnership's self-assessment process has to
offer.

What is the Partnership for Safe Water? The
Partnership for Safe Water is a voluntary initiative for enhancing
water treatment to provide higher quality drinking water. The Partnership
program is a four-phased, self-assessment and peer-review process
to help water suppliers examine their water operations, maintenance,
and management practices to determine where improvements can be
made.
How does the water consumer benefit from the Partnership?
Water quality will be improved. Through this Partnership, water
experts will provide utilities with guidance, advice, and technical
assistance for fine-tuning water treatment. Partnership members
are committed to taking preventive treatment actions to insure drinking
water is always safe, no matter what environmental influences may
impact raw water quality.
Why is this program important? As water providers identify
and battle microbial contaminants such as "Cryptosporidium," achieving
optimum water treatment has become more important. Partnership
members are taking aggressive steps to perfect their everyday
water operations and maintenance to combat water contaminants.
Their overall goal is to improve drinking water quality and treatment.
The Partnership also strengthens the relationship of the government,
utilities, and water organizations so they can continue to work
together to insure the quality of public drinking water.
What are the Partners required to do? In addition to committing
to ongoing water treatment enhancement, Partnership members must
meet current USEPA water quality standards, be in compliance with
the Surface Water Treatment Rule for the past six months, have a
third party assess their water operations, implement system improvements
identified by the assessment, and communicate their efforts to their
customers.
 The
following four phases were developed to help the Partnership members
meet the requirements.
Phase I - the agreement to participate in the Partnership
for Safe Water. The agreement requires the water supplier to have
met the USEPA's Surface Water Treatment Rule, pledge to complete
at least Phases II and III of the Partnership program, and notify
their consumers of their progress.
Phase II - the data collection process. Partners will collect
basic plant and plant performance data, assess current operations
and evaluate areas where performance can be enhanced. Partners have
180 days to complete Phase II.
Phase III - a comprehensive water treatment self-assessment.
Partners will examine the data collected in Phase II and identify
and correct any performance-limiting factors. Partners will report
their progress to the "Program Effectiveness Assessment Committee,"
a group of independent national experts.
…..a third-party assessment using the USEPA Composite Correction
Program (CCP). CCP emphasizes using corrective measures for optimizing
filtration plant performance that do not require major construction
or major expense. Phase IV involves having the water supplier's
corrective measures reviewed by trained third-party assessors.
Who are the Partnership Members? Nearly 300 water utilities
across the nation have joined the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency, American Water Works Association, Association of Metropolitan
Water Agencies, National Association of Water Companies, Association
Of State Drinking Water Administrators, and the American Water Works
Association Research Foundation in the Partnership for Safe Water.
Experts on water quality and treatment from throughout the industry
have contributed their time and knowledge to help develop the comprehensive
administrative, operational, and technical requirements of the Partnership's
Four-Phased program.
