As groundwater resources become increasingly overtaxed, there is a need to provide alternative
water sources. In some areas of the US such as Florida, surface water availability varies
seasonally. Thus, one option for preserving groundwater supplies is to substitute surface water
during the time of the year when it is available. This paper is a case study of the use of an
interconnect to provide treated surface water to an isolated portion of a distribution system that had
previously been served only by groundwater. Intensive testing was conducted to evaluate microbial
water quality and identify potential corrosion impacts associated with using multiple water sources
in an isolated portion of a distribution system.
