Drinking Water Emerging Contaminant Study

This project will consist of the Consultant working with the Dalton Utilities staff in designing, managing, coordinating, and conducting a multiple phase water treatment pilot study for the removal of PFAS contaminants. Consultant will develop sampling program and analyze data to determine source water characterization. Consultant will evaluate current and proposed regulations and perform treatability/pilot testing as needed and evaluate the contaminates present to provide information on treatment technologies in drinking water including, but not limited to, treatment efficiencies, operational costs, capital costs, and full life cycle costs. In addition, the project will concurrently examine any effects to water quality from such treatment. The project will involve coordinating with multiple vendors, scientists, academia, and other Consultants experienced in drinking water treatment to achieve a successful project.
