Basic Water Works
Course author: TRWA
This course introduces the student to the relationship
between potable drinking water and health, and the important
role the water operator plays in maintaining a safe and
ample supply of drinking water. An overall view of the water
cycle is presented together with a general description of
the responsibilities of water utility personnel and the need
for regulation of the water industry to protect the public
health, safety, and welfare. A general introduction to the
source, characteristics, production, treatment,
disinfection, storage, and distribution of potable water is
presented, together with instructions on general hazards and
safety practices. Basic water chemistry and math skills are
developed and applied to the water industry.

Corrosion Control Treatment Optimization
Course author: Rich Giani of
District of Columbia Water and Sewer Authority
Because of new or upcoming regulations, utilities have been
changing treatment or adding new chemicals in an effort to
meet these requirements. After treatment changes, unintended
consequences have occurred where systems that normally do
not have corrosion issues are experiencing lead and copper
exceedances. This course will focus on the basics of
corrosion control treatment optimization and provide the
latest information on how to assess your system and avoid
these unintended exceedances. It is full of useful images,
charts and tables. A new course written by Rich Giani of
District of Columbia Water and Sewer Authority, it also has
a new look and improved interactivity.
Course Modules: 1. Lead and
Copper Rule – Overview 2. Primary Water Quality Parameters
3. Secondary Water Quality Parameters – Part 1 4. Secondary
Water Quality Parameters – Part 2 5. Corrosion Control
Treatment 1 - Passivation – ph Alkalinity Adjustment 6.
Corrosion Control Treatment 2 – Passivation – pH/Alkalinity
Adjustment 7. Corrosion Control Treatment 3 – Passivation –
Phosphate 8. Corrosion Control Operations
Course Details:
Price: $225.00

Maintaining Water Quality in Distribution Systems
Course author: Rich Giani of
District of Columbia Water and Sewer Authority
Distribution systems are a vital part of every drinking
water utilities infrastructure. They are the mechanisms for
delivering safe, potable water to our customers.
Distribution systems also provide fire protection to our
buildings, water for landscape and cool air for our
buildings in the summer. Basically, without distribution
systems there would be no community. This course will focus
on components of a distribution system, how to monitor and
maintain high water quality, how to trouble shoot
complaints, identify sources of poor water quality and
provide education to customers related improving water
quality in their homes. The course was written by Rich Giani
of District of Columbia Water and Sewer Authority.
Course Modules: 1.
Distribution System Components 2. Distribution Pipe
Integrity 3. Reservoirs and Storage Tanks 4. Distribution
Design and Operations 5. Routine Distribution
Maintenance 6. Assessing Distribution Water Quality I;
Microbial and Disinfection Byproducts 7. Assessing
Distribution Water Quality II; Internal Corrosion and Metal
Precipitation Primary Parameters 8. Assessing Distribution
