As drinking water regulations become stricter and more groundwater supplies are found
to be hydraulically connected to surface waters, utilities will be looking for effective,
high-tech ways of complying with the regulations without having to develop
sophisticated, high-tech O&M capabilities. After operating groundwater supplies and
delivering high-quality water to its customers for decades, the City of Marysville found
itself in exactly this position. The GWI determination of its two major supplies, the
Stillaguamish Ranney Collector and the Edward Springs, brought on new treatment
requirements, new monitoring requirements, and new reporting requirements. The high
raw water quality of the two supplies supports the use of new technologies that can be
effective, reliable, low-maintenance, and cost-effective for the City. Membrane filtration
for the Stillaguamish source and UV disinfection for the Edward Springs source are two
high-tech means of providing the effective drinking water treatment needed without
imposing significant operating and maintenance protocols on the City.
