Abstract
This paper reports on the findings of the AWWA Task Group 2760 P‐Viruses in Water. This task group was directed in May 1960 to: review the literature and make a survey of studies that relate to virus diseases transmitted by drinking water; investigate whether any of the presently used water treatment processes remove or inactivate any of the viruses; attempt to learn if there are usable, safe, water quality criteria against virus disease transmission; stimulate interest and make educational reports to the AWWA Purification Division on viruses in water; and, encourage studies and investigations pertaining to virus disease transmission and public water supply. Viruses, organic contaminants, insecticides and pesticides, cancer hazards, and mineral requirements are all discussed.
