• Revised Lead and Copper Rule: Testing at schools and child-care facilities As schools begin returning to session, water utilities across the United States are busy preparing for fall 2024 when the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Lead and Copper Rule Revisions (LCRR) will require a new level of communication and cooperation with schools and child-care providers. School districts can be great partners, providing utilities a way to tell their water story through public education and inspiring a new generation who may one day be water operators. But schools operate very differently than many government agencies – from their funding sources to staffing and overall culture. Getting ready to be LCRR compliant means water systems must pay special attention to the needs of school districts and how to best collaborate with them.  Water utilities are required to provide schools and child-care facilities with a copy of EPA’s Training, Testing and Taking Action (3T’s) for Reducing Lead in Drinking Water in Schools and Child Care Facilities, as part of the LCRR sampling process. Utilities must sample at least 20% of elementary schools and 20% of child-care facilities in their service areas for the following five ...
• News reports on lead in Detroit schools Water utilities should be aware of current news reports on a decision to shut off access to drinking water in Detroit schools. With the start of the new school year, these stories may prompt questions from media and customers in other communities about lead levels in schools. Water utilities should be prepared to express their commitment to protecting children from lead in drinking water, including describing how they communicate with schools and daycare facilities in their service areas. Key points to elevate include: •    Our first priority as water providers is the protection of public health. •    Lead is typically not found in the water leaving our treatment or traveling through water mains. However, it may be present in school plumbing, as well as drinking water bubblers or coolers. •    Our utility takes the following steps to assist schools in understanding and managing lead risks from drinking water [if applicable, provide examples of letters to school districts, sampling guidance, etc.] •    EPA developed a guidance document titled 3Ts (Training, Testing, Telling) for Reducing Lead in Drinking Water in Schools, which outlines ...
• Operator-in-training courses taught in high schools By Ann Espinola Darrell King has a big job. He’s head of the water utility in Evanston, Ill. where he oversees nearly three dozen employees and a treatment plant serving more than 400,000 customers. But he spends every Saturday morning in a North Chicago classroom, where he teaches high school students how to become water treatment operators.   The program is one man’s way of forestalling the impending water sector labor shortage created by Baby Boomer retirements, and giving back to the community where he grew up. It is also among a handful of high school operator-in-training programs throughout the United States. In Texas, for example, water utilities in Irving and Arlington are working with their local school districts to prepare graduating seniors to pass water and wastewater licensing exams. In Portland, Ct., the city, utility and local school district partnered seven years ago to offer an operator course at the high school, but the program was discontinued two years ago during a change in leadership at the utility. The city hopes to start it up again in January.  The Irving program began ...
• Florida Section program preps high schoolers for water treatment jobs So, when he started high school and learned about a program that prepares students for careers as water or wastewater treatment plant operators, it seemed like a natural fit.   “I knew this was a career I wanted to do,” said Schloss (pictured right), who graduated from St. Johns Technical High School in Northeast Florida three years ago and is now a C-licensed wastewater operator at St. Johns County Utilities. “It’s nice knowing you’re doing something good for the environment. And it’s a job most people don’t know much about. They think water goes down the drain or the toilet and that’s the end of it.” The Florida Section of American Water Works Association (FSAWWA) received the 2020 Section Education Award for its High School Academy Program. The need to hire well-trained operators to replace retiring employees is urgent — in AWWA’s 2020 State of the Water Industry, respondents ranked “aging workforce/anticipated retirements” as one of the top 10 challenges facing the water industry. “If we can find people who have already taken courses, taken exams, people who know what they’re getting ...
• Kids safe to sip from school faucets, thanks to CECorps and AWWA section The school serves students in kindergarten through eighth grade and hosts community activities. The water system in the building had intermittently experienced high concentrations of lead in its water supply, which comes from a single well. Samples from specific faucets had lead levels of 40 parts per billion (ppb), exceeding the State of Washington’s lead action level of 15 ppb (90th percentile). A CECorps team of PNWS-AWWA volunteers, led by Lynn Williams Stephens (pictured right) and John Roth (pictured below), visited the site in the fall of 2016 and initiated measures to correct the situation. “We wanted a project that helped a low-income community address a water quality problem and the State of Washington Department of Health referred us to this school,” said Stephens, who works at Brown & Caldwell in Seattle. “I can’t think of a more important place than a school to try to reduce lead exposure. This also opened my eyes to the small-scale water systems I didn’t even know existed.” Volunteers in action The school did not have a full-time water operator and relied on contractors. In 2015, when ...

13 best ways to save water

97.5% of the world’s water is locked in seas and oceans, too salty for human use. And most of the remaining 2.5% is in the ice caps.

So we humans depend on the tiny bit available as fresh water – an essential  natural resource  for life. That's why we need to save water where we can.

But we don't just use water for drinking. We wash in it, clean with it, and use it to produce everything from clothing to food. Crop production – including feed for livestock and biofuels – is putting a great strain on fresh water supplies.

Save water, save our planet

Our water comes from rivers, lakes and sources like the Ladybower Reservoir in Derbyshire (pictured).

Climate breakdown is one of the biggest drivers of water shortages and is expected to heap even more pressure on our depleting supplies. People in England are facing shortages by 2050 unless we save water fast – according to the UK Environment Agency.

Read on for ways to take action and save our water supplies.

Our top tips on how to save water

1. Turn off the taps

Don't let your water consumption run out of control. Save 6 litres of water a minute by turning off your tap while you brush your teeth. Fix leaky taps  too – and stop what could be 60 litres of water going straight down the drain every week.

2. Shower with less

Every minute you spend in a power shower uses up to 17 litres of water  . Set a timer on your phone to keep your showers short, sweet and water-saving.

Switching to an efficient shower head will allow you to lather up in less water, which means you'll save water and cut your bills.

3. Save up your dirty clothes

Washing a full machine load of clothes uses less water and energy than 2 half-loads  . This means lower bills as well as saving water.

4. Reduce food waste

It takes a lot of water to produce our cereal, fruit and other food.

More than half of the 7 million tonnes of food and drink UK households bin every year could be eaten. Wasting less food could not only save water, but also save you £540 a year.

Get some handy advice from Love Food Hate Waste  , or get inspired by high-tech solutions to food waste  from around the world.

5. Time your gardening

Water outdoor plants in the early morning or at the end of the day to stop water immediately evaporating in sunlight and heat. Water the soil so that the liquid goes straight to the roots, where it’s needed.

In a heatwave, animals need water too. Instead of watering your lawn, leave out a water-filled container, like a casserole dish, for birds to drink from and wash. Thirsty bees and other insects will need a saucer or bowl with water and stones in it.

6. Catch rainwater

Installing water butts saves up to 5,000 litres of water a year  . And your plants will thank you for rainwater rather than treated tap water.

You can also cut water use by 33% by watering plants manually instead of using automatic sprinklers.

7. Get a low-flush toilet

The average UK household uses about 30% of all water used to flush the toilet . Modern dual-flush systems save huge amounts of water. They use just 6 litres – or 4 with a reduced flush – much less than the 13 litres for each old-style single flush.

If you can't invest in a new loo, get a  water-saving bag for your old-style toilet  .

8. No more washing up

Got a dishwasher? Fill it up completely each time you run it and you'll use less water than you would doing the dishes by hand. Yes, even if you're using a washing-up bowl. What better excuse to go and have a nice sit down?

Find out more about the most water- and energy-efficient ways to run your appliances  from the Energy Saving Trust.

9. Quality and seasonal eating

Rearing animals for meat and dairy and harvesting crops like avocado at a large and unsustainable scale is incredibly water-intensive. By cutting down on meat and dairy and eating seasonal vegetables you'll be helping to save water.

You'll also be helping to protect the climate. The m eat and dairy industries are big contributors to global warming.

10. Boil what you need

Save water, money and energy by only boiling as many cups of water as you need.

11. Steam your veggies

Steam your food to cut water usage and retain more of the natural nutrients.

If you do boil, try using the leftover water as a tasty stock for soups . Or let it cool and use it to water plants.

12. Be plumbing prepared

Regularly check your kitchen pipes and the dishwasher hose for slow leaks.

Find out where your household stop valve is and make sure that you can turn it on and off. You'll thank us if you ever have a burst pipe, because you'll be able to cut off the flow before it floods the house.

Find a contact number for your water supplier  , so that if you find a leak you can let them know and stop water being wasted.

13. Don't fund the water-grabbers

Some companies and investors that buy up land around the world contribute to water scarcity and pollution. They sometimes deny local people access to water, pollute watercourses or exhaust supplies. This can affect the ability of local communities to farm and access safe drinking water. This is known as "watergrabbing"  .

Make sure you know where your savings or pension are invested . And check how the companies that make the products you use treat local water sources. That way you'll know you're not supporting water wastage and contamination.

Speech on Save Water for Students and Children

Speech on save water.

A hearty welcome to all the teachers and students present in the auditorium. I am here to convey a speech on Save Water.  We all know that water is the most useful resource on Earth. Also, we all are aware of its immense uses. We cannot imagine our lives without water. Moreover, we use water for household, agricultural, industrial, recreational and other purposes. Also, it is used for environmental purposes. Although, 70% of the Earth’s Surface is covered by water, yet, only 1% of freshwater is available for drinking. Most of our household tasks cannot be completed without water. Also, in industries, it is used for the preparation of goods and products. Furthermore, it assists in transportation too.

Despite its importance, we are facing deterioration in water resources. Although, it is a natural resource, yet we need to conserve the same. We need to save water for the development to take place in a sustainable manner. We must understand that it is the basis of humanity. Our earth is green because of water. There are many places facing the problem of water scarcity. Thus, we must take effective steps for the conservation of water.

Importance of Water in Life

Water is an indispensable component of life. We cannot survive without water. The human body comprises of a huge amount of water. Thus, human beings and animals need much water to drink. Also, plants need water to grow. From drinking to cooking to everything, we need water. We need safe water for all our organs to function properly. Moreover, we can preserve our environment by saving water.  An excellent example of this is the use of water to produce electricity.  The use of hydropower or hydroelectricity helps in controlling pollution.

Furthermore, it prevents the burning of fossil fuels, coal, etc. for producing electricity. Also, it is essential for maintaining the Earth’s temperature. The human body is made up of a huge amount of water. Thus, human beings and animals need much water to drink. Also, plants need water to grow. From drinking to cooking to everything, we need water.

How to Save Water?

Water is the most precious component needed for food and life.  All human beings, animals and plants have a requirement of water. Thus, we need to conserve water resources. To conserve or decrease the polluting factors, we must be aware of the factors that lead to its deterioration. Then, we must take some valuable steps. These include turning off the taps, cut down meat-eating and dairy. Also, we must check for water leakage from hand pumps, shower less to save water. Moreover, we must have a pond to use water. Furthermore, the dumping of sewage and toxins into water bodies is a major reason for water pollution. Moreover, fertilizers require a huge amount of water. Thus, we must minimize the use of fertilizers in the fields. Also, we must check for soil erosion by planting trees.

We need water for thousand of tasks in our lives. It provides beauty to nature and maintains the environmental balance. Since it is the basis of our survival and development we should not misuse it.  We must use wisely this sacred gift of nature. We should teach the society by conducting awareness programs. Also, we must use modern techniques for farming. Moreover, watersheds help to conserve rainwater. We must try to educate our children about the importance of water. Its education must be provided at schools, colleges, etc. Also, through media, this purpose can be achieved. Although water is a natural resource available in abundance, it doesn’t mean we can misuse it. It is not a single person’s responsibility to conserve water. We could avoid the wastage of water only by joining hands.

SAVE WATER School Outreach Programme Auroville Water Harvest 2005

WATER IS LIFE

Did you know that the water you drank this morning might have been the same water a dinosaur drank millions of years ago? There is the same amount of water on Earth today as there has always been. The water keeps moving around in an endless cycle called the water cycle.

THE WATER CYCLE Water evaporates from oceans, rivers and lakes (water in its liquid form) and rises into the atmosphere (water in its gas form) where it condenses to form clouds. Precipitation then falls to the earth in the form of rain (water in its liquid) or snow (water in its solid form) where it flows into oceans, rivers and lakes and the process begins again

Evapotranspiration Evaporation Evaporation Evaporation from ocean Soil Moisture Infiltration Moisture over land Precipitation Moisture over land

Amount of fresh water in the world … • Of all the water on Earth, only a small amount is available for us to use. It's true!96.5% of the Earth's water supply is salt water.Only 2.8% is fresh water! • That 2.8% is divided like this: • 0.76% is groundwater (we can use some of this water) • 0.0132% is in lakes and streams (we can use some of this water) • 1.74% is in glaciers and icecaps • 0.001% is water vapor

Pollution of water • DOMESTIC POLLUTION Safe water supply Sanitation – open defecation Drainage Solid waste disposal • AGRICULTURE POLLUTION Pesticides Fertilisers Over extraction of ground water

INDUSTRIAL POLLUTION Chemicals Untreated water Ground water contamination

Water and health • The body is comprised of 75%of water. • We cannot live without water for more than 24 hours. • 1.8 million people die from diarrhoeal death where 90% are children. • 88% is attributed to unsafe water supply, inadequate sanitation and hygiene.

How water is linked to health • Drinking dirty water leads to ill health. • Unclean water sources like latrines near hand pumps or taps can contaminate the water from the ground. • Not washing hands before eating.

Leaving drinking water containers uncovered. • Household wastes near homes leading to breeding ground for flies. • No proper drainage near homes – stagnant water where mosquitoes breed.

How to avoid health problems … • Protect all drinking water sources • Drink water from only protected water sources • Wash hands after going to the toilet • Use toilets – don’t openly defecate • Wash hands before eating • Wash vegetables well before cooking • Cover all food

Personal hygiene • Have bath daily • Comb hair daily • Brush teeth daily twice • Cut your nails • Wash hands with soap after going to toilet • Wash hands before eating • Wear clean clothes

Sanitation • Don’t defecate in the open • Always wash yourself • Use toilets where they are • Don’t defecate near water sources • Dispose of your waste in a responsible manner • Reuse your bathing water

Environment • Don’t throw your household waste near drinking water sources • Clean your house and surroundings daily • Don’t throw paper, plastic, households wastes into open drains that run through the street • Throw litter into a bin and dispose of it properly • Don’t cut down trees but grow more plants • See that the drains are not blocked

Do you know …..

In 1955, an Indian citizen had 5000 cubic meters of water at her disposal. Today she has less than 1500 and it will get lesser in the future. • More than 1 billion people in the world have no access to improved water sources and nearly 2/3 live in Asia.

Why do you think so ….. Because there is not enough water left for everyone….. So we must try to conserve water and harvest rainwhenever we can

Using water wisely Lifestyle choices, population growth and climate change are placing increasing demands on our water supplies. It's important that we do not take this precious resource for granted and that we all use water wisely to ensure that there is enough for everyone in years to come.

Saving water starts with you

Check your water meter and track your bills • Wash fruits, vegetables in a pan of water rather than running water • Collect the water you use for rinsing produce and reuse it to water houseplants.

Time your shower to keep it under 5 minutes. You'll save up to 4000 ltrs a month. • When you give your pet fresh water, don't throw the old water down the drain. Use it to water your trees or shrubs. • When you are washing your hands, don't let the water run while you lather.

Turn off the water while you soap and shampoo yourself. You can save more than 200 ltrs a week. • Check all taps and pipes for leakages. A dripping tap can waste 140 liters a week. • Turn off the water while you brush your teeth and wash your face. Keep water in a mug. You waste 6 liters a minutes with running water.

Do one thing every day that will save water. REMEMBER – every drop counts

Do you know how much water it takes to …

Why do we need to harvest rainwater?

The ultimate source of water that we utilise in our daily life is from the monsoons. The rain used to fall on the ground and slowly seep inside till the underground storages were filled up. But today, there are more building and roads and less water is being able to seep inside.

At the same time, people are drawing out more and more water from the underground storages. The result being that there is less and less water for us to use.

Our duty is to see that we can get enough water to use and also have some left for the future.

You can do something to save the environment Save Water : Reduce the demands on scarce and ground water sources. • Stored water can be used in non monsoon months.

Reduces erosion and storm water run-off • Saves natural resource presently wasted • Prevents ground water depletion

Supports water conservation & self-dependence • Stores water that would otherwise lead to flooding.

How do we harvest rain? Simple ….

Catch it in anything that holds waters. Once you have a container, simply put a tank/drum beneath where the rainwater runs off your roof and you have started harvesting.

Methods of saving water Rain water harvesting in Chennai and Bangalore

Environmental cleanliness • We depend on nature for life. • We need to protect nature or else we get fucked up • Nature fucked up – we pretty big fuck up

Solid waste management • Separate solid wet and solid dry (organic and ….. Wastes) into different containers • Dig a pit and put organic wastes in to it with a layer of soil – can be used for compost • Don’t burn plastic or bury it • Recycle paper, plastic, metal, glass

What schools can do … • Form committees for drinking water and sanitation • These committees will be in charge of the school and see that the drinking water areas and toilets are maintained well. • Ensure that the school practices water conservation and water harvesting • Have exhibitions in their own schools for the neighbourhood

This complimentary and reimagined program comes complete with interactive videos, posters and lesson plans that will inspire your students while learning to recognize and understand risks of water safety.

Section 1: Being Water Smart - The Basics

Lesson 1: do your part, be water smart.

Lesson 1 introduces participants to basic guidelines and rules to help them be safer in, on and around the water. It lays out foundational concepts that one should never be in, on or around the water alone and should only swim in areas designated for swimming and supervised by a capable adult water watcher and, where possible, lifeguards.

These principles form the basis for all other lessons. It is strongly recommended that leaders start with this lesson before conducting any other lessons.

GO TO LESSON

Lesson 2: Swim as a Pair with a Lifeguard There

Lesson 2 takes a closer look at one of the key water safety rules: a person should never swim alone. Lifeguards, other capable adult water watchers and a water buddy are all part of the water safety team that helps participants stay safer in, on and around the water. The lesson reinforces the importance of learning to swim to help oneself be as safe as possible.

Lesson 3: First Look Around: Is the Scene Safe and Sound?

Lesson 3 provides more information about what a designated swimming area should look like and why it’s important to know how deep the water is before getting in. The lesson wraps up with sun safety information to help participants keep their skin and eyes safer from harm while enjoying their time by the water.

Lesson 4: Don't Just Pack It, Wear Your Life Jacket

Lesson 4 participants learn about when to wear a life jacket in, on or around the water. This includes always wearing a life jacket when boating regardless of swim skill level. This lesson also covers some basic boating safety guidelines.

Section 2: A Deeper Dive into How to be Water Smart

Lesson 5: play it smart at your home, pool or park.

Lesson 5 explores water safety at pools and waterparks. Some water safety rules are the same wherever you go, and some are more specific to certain settings and situations. It also covers other places a participant might encounter water in their home and near where they live or visit that require water smarts.

Lesson 6: Wave, River or Tide, Water Smarts Are Your Guide

Lesson 6 takes a deeper dive into specific considerations for different types of waterfront settings where a participant might be in, on or around the water from oceans to ponds, rivers to lakes. As with other lessons, it emphasizes the role of basic water smarts as the foundation for helping keep participants safe.

Section 3: Being Water Smart in an Emergency

Lesson 7: think so you don't sink.

Lesson 7 provides basic information about how participants can help themselves if they are starting to have trouble in the water or if a water emergency occurs. This includes the importance of staying calm as well as specific actions to take based on the situation.

If you will be teaching Lesson 8, Reach or Throw, Don’t Go, you should first cover the material in this lesson.

Lesson 8: Reach or Throw, Don’t Go

Lesson 8 provides information to participants about how they can best help others in the event of an aquatic emergency when help is not available from a lifeguard or other capable adult. The focus is on how to do so without putting oneself in harm’s way by using a reaching or throwing assist.

Lesson 9: Stay Calm, Think It Through and You Can Know What To Do

Lesson 9 includes weather-related water safety hazards that participants may encounter depending on where they live or travel: thunderstorms, floods and ice.

It’s recommended that this lesson is taught after participants have completed Lesson 7: Think So You Don’t Sink and Lesson 8: Reach or Throw, Don’t Go, which cover some of the basic skills a person should have in a water emergency situation to help themselves and others.

Closing Ceremony: Time to Celebrate - You did Great!

Whether your group does one lesson or all nine, the closing ceremony is a way to mark the journey they have made toward learning how to be water smart through Longfellow's WHALE Tales Water Safety for Children. The final activity reminds them that water should be fun, plus they can take a safety pledge together as a group.

Did You Know?

In 1914, Commodore Wilbert E. Longfellow started the Red Cross Lifesaving Corps to train volunteers in the methods of lifesaving and resuscitation. The Commodore's teaching philosophy was to "entertain the public hugely while educating them gently." This program does just that.

In tribute to Commodore Longfellow, who was known as the "amiable whale," the mascot for the WHALE Tales program and animations is Longfellow, a blue whale. WHALE is an acronym for Water Habits Are Learned Early.

In the Do Your Part, Be Water Smart animation (Lesson 1), the two characters wear life jackets while surfing. Why?

Life jackets play an important role in helping keep children safer while surfing. Life jackets help them stay warm. Children are often less experienced in the water and may not have the same strength and endurance as adults. Children may also be less aware of ocean hazards, such as rip current or changing tides. Wearing a life jacket can provide children with the needed extra buoyancy, allowing them to stay afloat more easily and conserve their energy. For more information about surfing and safety precautions, be sure to consult with surfing professionals local to the area.

In the Think So You Don’t Sink animation (Lesson 7), why we do we hear Mateo call for help?

In this lesson, Mateo calls for help because he is starting to get tired. He recognized that he was having trouble and was able to call for help.

Why does Sophia wear her cochlear implants in the water? Won’t they be damaged?

Some models of external processors have waterproofing options and can be used in the water. Anyone with cochlear implants should discuss these options with their audiologist.
