conference contribution
posted on 2018-02-12, 15:08 authored by Charles Niwagaba, Sam Godfrey, Alex Gisagara, Guy HowardWater Safety Plans (WSPs) are risk management tools
designed to assure the safety of drinking water. WSPs have
the advantage that they help minimise the risks to water
contamination through identification and management of
vulnerable points within a water supply system, which
could allow microbial hazards to enter. This paper discusses
one of the crucial elements in establishing WSPs, the
system assessment. It outlines findings from fieldwork
undertaken on a UK, Department for International Development
(DFID) funded project on development of WSPs in
Kampala, Uganda.
