Water Web Guide
This web-guide is a selected and very partial collection of available
source water protection tools for community planners, public water
supply operators, members of local source water protection teams,
and anyone interested in protecting their sources of drinking water.
It primarily focuses on source water resources either produced by
EPA, or which EPA has supported through grants. The home pages of
these organizations and many other EPA
Drinking Water Partners are provided elsewhere. If you have
a recommendation for this collection, please send the URL and a
brief description to
hall.beth@epa.gov.
