Water Safety Plans
Water safety plans will be implemented at the water system level as a holistic tool for ensuring the safety of drinking water supplies from source to tap. World Health Organization guidance will be followed for implementation and recommended water safety planning steps will be followed such as assembling a WSP Team, describing the water supply, hazard identification and risk assessment, developing and implementing an incremental improvement plan, monitoring control measures to verify the effectiveness of the WSP, and continuously documenting, reviewing, and improving WSP implementation.
