Problem Statement
• Compliance with Stage 2 D/DBP Regulation
• A change in raw water quality resulted in an exceedance of TTHMs Operational Evaluation Level (OEL) at some sites in 2018
• Short term and Long term solutions needed

Project Goals
• Identify an immediate term (2 months) approach to comply with OEL
• Assess short and long term options for ongoing compliance
• Identify option for Stage 2 D/DBP compliance while maintaining primary disinfection
10
Project Goals
• Assess a wide range of alternatives
• Select alternative that provides the greatest value for the investment based on the project-specific goals.
• Constraints
ꟷMaintain primary disinfection ahead of filters
ꟷChloramine disinfection in distribution
ꟷOxidant needed for Mn
A defensible, comprehensive decision model was used to evaluate and rank the options
11
Project Approach• Frame the Project
• Identify Treatment Alternatives (22)
• Rate performance against goals
• Rank treatment alternatives with Weighted Criteria
• Develop Conceptual Designs and Costs (10)
• Prepare Cost/Benefit Analysis
Project executed in 7 months, with short term
alternatives identified in month 3
12
Developing Alternatives
Short Term Operational Changes
1 - Eliminate pre-chlorination. Provide alternate method for primary disinfection.
Permanganate or alternate oxidant.
2 - Provide additional TOC removal andmaintain current chlorine application as oxidant and disinfectant
4 - Major physical plant/process changes
5 – Shark River treatment
13
Short Term Operations• Application of PAC to raw water at Glendola Reservoir location is ongoing
• Install GAC in dual media filters for THM adsorption
• Limit use of Shark River - install on-line TOC monitoring and analyze rainfall data could enable a more selective use of this source

Next Steps• TOC analyzer is in place on Shark River
• PAC continues to be fed at the source
• The findings for long-term treatment options are being used by NJAW in long term master planning for their Coastal North Water System.
