The utilities represented in this paper have longstanding
commitments to treatment excellence though Partnership for Safe Water as well as seamless
regulatory compliance as regulations become increasingly stringent. This work in consistent with those
objectives. It is hoped that this paper will be helpful to utilities having to make decisions about how to
collect, analyze and store voluminous amounts of process data to meet these various objectives for
regulatory compliance and voluntary treatment excellence beyond regulation. This paper summarizes extensive efforts to date of these four utilities to compile and analyze
large filtered turbidity data sets from individual filter effluents from six different surface water treatment
plants. Results have been compiled into the tables and discussions that are included in this paper. Highlights have been
included from Kentucky-American Water Company (KAWC) facilities' experiences followed by a
detailed analysis the Louisville Water Company (LWC) data from its two treatment facilities. With
exception of the LWC case study, and certain examples where Kentucky-American's two facilities are
compared to each other, different facilities have not been identified in specific graphics and tables. This
is to avoid the temptation of comparing these utilities' performance using incongruous data or analyses.
Includes tables, figures.
