This abstract summarizes the status and initial findingsof a current U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) project to review the state-of-the-art technologies for integrated early warning systems (EWSs)for drinking water, particularly for finished water supplies and distribution systems.This project outlines desired characteristics of an integrated EWS and summarizes andevaluates current and emerging EWS technologies for identifying general categories ofchemical, microbial, and radiological contaminants. Specifically, it examines the state ofsensor technology (including multi-parameter water quality monitors) to detect thecontaminants, systems to transmit, acquire, and analyze data, sensor placement,contaminant flow modeling, alert management, data security, and protocols fornotification, decision making and emergency response. The project presentsconclusions and recommendations regarding future directions of EWSs includingtechnical issues and research gaps. Includes abstract only.
