Establishment and Implementation of Source Water Implementation Plan for Water Treatment Plants in Taiwan.

In accordance with the source water implementation plan rule SWIPR in Taiwan, water treatment plants WTPs with source
water parameters exceeding the source water quality standards are required to submit a source water implementation plan to improve the
source water and drinking water quality. In this study, the SWIPR was analyzed, and the concept of comprehensive performance
evaluation CPE was applied for upgrading the performance of WTPs. Three WTPs Da-Nan WTP Type 1, Liu-Du WTP Type 2, and
Chen-Chin-Lake WTP Type 3 were selected as demonstration projects. A CPE team was established to evaluate the operations of these
WTPs and make recommendations for improving the performance of the WTPs to achieve the drinking water standards. This paper
describes the analysis and recommendations of the CPE team.
