News coverage of the workshop:
On June 27-28, 2002 EPA sponsored the
first workshop, convened by Rutgers/CIMIC, on “Advanced Technologies in Real-Time
Monitoring and Modeling for Drinking Water Safety and Security”. The
presentations and findings from this highly successful and well-attended
workshop can be found at http://cimic.rutgers.edu/workshop.html. This first workshop identified several
advanced sensor technologies under development or near ready for
deployment. Also, presented at the
workshop were models of source water systems or distribution systems that could
be used for real time monitoring utilizing such advanced sensors. The conferees agreed that real time systems
are the next step for water model development, to provide early warning alerts
and response actions for the drinking water utilities. In addition, the panels
agreed that such systems were indeed feasible with today’s modeling
capabilities and offer the potential to serve as effective response tool to
natural or deliberate acts of terrorism. Another, major outcome emerging
from this workshop was the establishment of a consortium of water utilities,
government agencies and universities that have agreed to pursue a prototype
real time monitoring and modeling system.
The workshop will cover these areas:
·
Perspectives on Drinking Water Security from Government,
Industry, and Academia,
·
Reports on Technical Readiness Level of sensors and models,
·
Breakout sessions to define and end to end prototype early
warning system.
The first day, is planned as a plenary session devoted to gaining a general
status on steps being taken nationally by agencies and utilities in response to
September 11th. In addition,
a number of technical talks are scheduled to assess the readiness of proposed
systems. The second day is aimed at
meeting the third objective to formulate the consortium prototype. The invitees
will be asked to split into breakout sessions; devoted mainly to identifying
the near and long term advanced technologies in their domain of expertise, for
prototyping a real time drinking water alert system.
The main
objectives of this second workshop are:
1.
learn of steps being taken elsewhere at the Federal, State
and Local levels on early warning systems,
2.
further assess the progress made on the integration and implementation
of advanced sensor technologies into real time modeling
capabilities, and
3.
propose and formulate near and long term design elements of
prototype systems for implementation by the consortium.
