Overall Goal: How do we make DPR safe?
WRRF Project 11-02 Addresses Two Key Questions:
1. What level of treatment must we achieve?
2. How can we achieve that level of treatment?

Public health goals for DPR

– 10-log Giardia and Crypto reduction
• WRRF 11-02: 12 / 10 / 9– 12-log enteric virus
– 10-log Crypto (Giardia implied)
– 9-log bacteria

The bottom line:
• Process failure cannot reduce delivered water quality below target goals; so…
– We must know when the failure has occurred and divert flow from the potable stream; or
– We must have sufficient redundancy of treatment, storage, and monitoring to know that water quality goals are being met.
Processes WILL fail.

In addition to robust treatment, there are two key components you need for protecting public health and minimizing cost in the case of process failure:
1. Quick response time
2. Good monitoring to ensure expected treatment result

WRRF-11-10 – Application of Risk Reduction Principles to Direct Potable Reuse
• Project Goal – “A critical initial evaluation of DPR, including treatment, monitoring, and operation.”
– Identify important weak points in the advanced treatment process train.
– Look at how and when we can manage these risks.

Key Lessons
• Make things simpler and/or less tightly coupled.
• Control potential failure points relative to their risk.
• Monitoring is key.
• For personnel:
– Training, training, training.
– SOPs for critical failure events.
– Simple checklists

The general public has difficulty with the concept of relative concentrations and risk
• There is a concern that “presence” in any amount is a problem
• Adverse health effects are presumed if anything can be detected.
• There is no “zero”of anything…including risk.

Public Perception Lessons• Hire an expert
• Well-conceived plan
• Validate “contagion” mentality
• Watch your mouth!– Different vocabulary– Alarming words and
acronyms
• Present DPR among other options
– Energy– Capital and O&M– Social & Environmental

Critical Issues Remain to Be Addressed in Cloudcroft
• Water Supply is Low and DPR is the Answer
– Vacation Community
– 9,000 feet, limited groundwater resources
– No surface water resources
– Population doubles/triples during peak tourist season
– Water needed to sustain tourism in the Village
• Public Support is Split

Critical Issues Remain to Be Addressed in Cloudcroft
• New Mexico Environment Department Needs Answers
– What level of treatment meets public health standards?
– Is the existing treatment scheme sufficient? What about process monitoring?
– How will a small community properly operate an advanced facility?
• Existing WWTP is a trickling filter, is current staff and training sufficient?
– What type of state-wide guidance is needed for big and small DPR projects?
