Equipment and monitoring devices ofall types have been introduced and tested. Variations of on-line, in-line, real-time and near-realtimemonitors have been tested, and in some cases deployed by water systems. Other watersystems have increased their security while paying little attention to additional water qualitymonitoring. Because of the complex nature of water treatment and its delivery, it is impossible tobe able to provide the level of monitoring that water systems require with the level of fundingavailable. This brings us to rely on existing surveillance methods. One method rarely identified asa part of current water quality surveillance efforts is our public health system.
