The Water Supply and Water Resources (WSWR)
conducts research to help prepare the primary and secondary regulations
for drinking water and to develop technologies and strategies
for controlling waterborne contaminants. The program integrates
chemistry, engineering, microbiology, computer modeling and cost
analysis to provide effective, reliable and cost-effective techniques.
WSWR programs include research on:
- Urban & non-urban storm water runoff
- Combined & sanitary sewer overflows
- Underground & aboveground storage tanks, and oil spills
- Contaminated sediments
- Acquisition, treatment, distribution and support services for safe drinking water
- Microbiological contaminant sampling, characterization and management
- Watershed hydrology modeling
- Constructed wetlands
The WSWR operates in-house pilot facilities
and conducts field scale research. It works closely with municipal
and county organizations that treat raw water and operate water
supply facilities and wet weather flow control systems, including:
- EPA's regional & program offices
- State regulatory authorities
- Other federal agencies
- Private industry
- The Public
