Project: Residential Drinking Water Treatment Design & Oversight

Residential Drinking Water Treatment Design & Oversight for Suffolk County Dept. Health Services

We designed and installed treatment systems for private water wells with high levels of the pollutants PFOA and PFOS.

PWGC designed and oversaw the installation of point-of-entry treatment (POET) systems for residential units that have private drinking water wells with sample results greater than the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) health advisory level (70 parts per trillion) for PFOA and PFOS at individual or combined concentrations.

Project Details

PWGC prepared an engineering report for approval by the SCDHS and NYSDEC. The design included dual carbon vessels, prefilter, UV disinfection system, and associated gauges and sampling ports. PWGC performed startup testing and reporting to ensure systems were operating as designed. PWGC is performing the ongoing operation and maintenance of the systems with includes periodic sampling, carbon changeout, pre-filter replacement and UV system maintenance.

PWGC prepares periodic monitoring reports and submits them to the property owners and regulatory agencies.
