| Description | Most Native American tribal drinking water systems face many of the same problems as small public water systems. However, they also have primacy with respect to developing their own drinking water regulations and educating their water resources staff to address water quality and supply problems. While some Native American resources exist in this area, many individual tribes or communities lack adequate technical knowledge and financial resources to deal with these issues on their own. This project developed a training workshop specifically targeted toward Native American tribal members. The workshop addressed issues such as the following: laboratory methods, development of regulatory codes, monitoring needs and methods, and wellhead protection. This project employs Native American educational organizations and speakers as anintegral part of the proposal. |
