40 EPA Water Security Initiative The Water Security (WS) initiative is a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) program that addresses the risk of contamination of drinking water systems. EPA established this initiative in response to Homeland Security Presidential Directive 9, under which the Agency must develop robust, comprehensive, and fully coordinated surveillance and monitoring systems, including international information, for water quality that provides early detection and awareness of disease, pest or poisonous agents. 40

102 Pipe Break/ Contamination Feature If the system needs to be isolated, using what valve(s)? What is the associated volume of contaminated water? Number of customers? Total demand? What is the associated volume of isolated water? Number of customers? Total demand? What critical pieces of infrastructure are impacted? If the system should be flushed, can the upstream part of the system be used or does the system need to be isolated and flushing water pumped through a hydrant? If so, which hydrant? What will be the final disposition of the flushed water? Where will the water flow? 102
