American Water Works Assn., [c]2004 316 p. $205.00 (pa) This research report investigates the unconventional approaches to water provision that can support the "newly emerging paradigm" of utilities as suppliers of premium quality water for drinking and cooking and bulk water for other uses as two distinct products. Among the approaches examined are bottled water distribution, point-of-use (POU POU Point Of Use POU Program Organization Unit POU Poughkeepsie, NY, USA - Dutchess County (Airport Code) POU Pay Own Utilities (used in housing advertisements) POU Petrick Outsourcing Unlimited, Inc. ) and point-of-entry (POE) device installation, neighborhood- scale treatment or polishing of distributed water, water reuse reuse - Using code developed for one application program in another application. Traditionally achieved using program libraries. Object-oriented programming offers reusability of code via its techniques of inheritance and genericity. , and dual distribution system applications.

POU and POE devices receive the greatest focus, with the research including a pilot study of POU devices installed in two large urban-area utilities and in the homes of utility customers, as well as POE and neighborhood-scale supplemental treatment case studies. The report also seeks to judge whether unconventional approaches are best advanced through regulatory compliance or supplemental market-oriented services as drivers. |
