Organic Polymers Replace Alum and Improve Water Quality in Ithaca

This work was supported by Region 8, EPA, Denver, Colorado. The authors also express their appreciation for the cooperation of the Huron City Council, Mr. Glen Honsiaux, Huron City engr., and Mr. Harold Root, Huron Water Treatment Plant supt. Field assistance with samples and on-site testing was given by Mr. Larry Doss, P.E., Huron, S.D. Bacteriological testing was conducted by the South Dakota Dept. of Envir. Protection, Pierre, S.D.
