Description
In this workshop, water and wastewater operators will learn about data and information compiled by THREATS, a tool saving time and effort in day-to-day tasks.
The Healthy River Ecosystem Assessment System™ (THREATS) is a tool designed to assist drinking water providers and local decision makers in understanding and assessing risks to their drinking water sources. It is a secure, web-based data visualization and analysis platform, incorporating spatial and time series data sets as well as predictive and scenario models. It is modular and customizable, making data access, analysis and visualization quick and convenient.
The workshop will provide an overview of source water protection and the THREATS platform, focusing on hands-on experience with modules and data sets within the platform that aid in the development of Source Water Protection (SWP) plans, Drinking Water Safety Plans (DWSPs) and other watershed management plans.
As a central repository for data and information, the tool is also relevant in enabling and facilitating greater collaboration between drinking water providers and stakeholders. Use of the tool may also help ensure alignment with local priorities, statutory and non-statutory watershed management initiatives, and regional plans.
The session will include guided exercises using the tool. To get the most out of the session, participants should bring a laptop to work on.
