Abstract

Legionella pneumophila presents a latent public health risk for public water systems; however, well-run systems can maintain a baseline level in drinking water below a level of concern.

Routine monitoring can establish a water utility's baseline Legionella pneumophila frequency of occurrence and concentration (MPN/100 mL).

A routine monitoring program can follow the Revised Total Coliform Rule, which makes it reasonable for water utilities to implement.

饮用水分配系统嗜肺军团菌的常规监测

嗜肺军团菌对公共供水系统构成潜在的公共卫生风险；然而，运行良好的系统可以将饮用水中的基线水平维持在关注水平以下。常规监测可建立自来水公司嗜肺军团菌的基线发生频率和浓度（MPN/100 mL）。常规监测程序可以遵循修订的总大肠菌群规则，这使得水务公司实施它是合理的。
