Corrosion Control and Water Quality Improvement in Drinking Water Distribution Systems

The U.S. EPA’s updated Lead and Copper Rule imposes stricter requirements.  This course describes why simply adding orthophosphate isn’t enough to ensure long-term compliance and water quality. The course goes beyond the rule’s basic recommendations, providing water managers, operators, and engineers with effective, sustainable corrosion control strategies that address lead, copper, and other distribution system challenges.

Failure to act now on lead and copper control could lead to violations, costly corrective actions, and increased public scrutiny. Through real-world examples and hands-on planning, participants will learn how to develop a proactive approach to corrosion control, increasing the potential for regulatory compliance while improving overall water quality.

This course equips attendees with completed, actionable plans and a process control method to help them adapt to changing conditions—protecting both infrastructure and public health. Stay ahead of regulatory changes and position your water system for long-term success.

Learn the important principles, trends, and technologies related to corrosion control and controlling water quality in your distribution systems.  This course takes you beyond the Lead and Copper Rule to solve lead, copper, and other distribution system water quality issues.
