Key Features
Special Issues Advisory Info on Application of Standards
This standard addresses only requirements limited exclusively to operation and management practices for reclaimed/recycled water programs
Advisory Info on Regulatory Issues Does not provide regulatory requirements, as there are not
federal regs governing reuse at this time, but does reflect regulatory issues handled by states
Indirect and Direct Potable Reuse This standard does not address these applications, but
recognizes its emergence and need for appropriate public health protections
