This ï¬eld guide is designed to provide practical advice to planners within local governments, and to non-government organisations (NGOs) and other parties involved in water-related activities at local and community levels. It will assist this target group in planning and resourcing the design and management of water supply systems.
The guide provides an overview of risks associated with different water sources and distribution systems. It also explains the design and implementation of plans to manage water quality, which should focus on managing the threats to water quality and maximising the opportunities to maintain a safe water supply.
