Course Description
In this course, the student will be given an overview and background of technical information on the application of ultraviolet light for the disinfection of drinking water by public water systems. This overview includes a description of basic chemical and physical principles, the components of UV equipment, and performance monitoring for UV facilities. The overview material is intended to present generally accepted facts and research results related to UV disinfection. The material covers many aspects for consideration when implementing a UV disinfection system.
The course will be beneficial for a student with basic knowledge of water treatment design and is interested in learning about how UV disinfection is now being applied as a disinfection alternative for municipal water supply systems. It is also an excellent overview for those professionals working in the field of water treatment.
The student is expected to read and review the material contained in the EPA Guidance Manual EPA 815-R-06-007, UV Disinfection Guidance Manual for the Final Long Term 2 Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule, November 2006.
The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of twenty (20) questions at the end of this course to earn 4 PDH credits.
State Board Acceptance
This course can be used by professional engineers to fulfill PDH requirements mandated by state and provincial licensing boards. Decatur Professional Development is an approved provider of continuing education in all states that pre-approve course providers. In all other states that mandate continuing education for engineers, it is the individual engineer's responsibility to determine the suitability of activities for PDH credit. The state boards typically accept online* courses that cover technical, managerial** or ethical content and which are relevant to the practice of engineering. The course must have a clear purpose or objective with a content that will maintain, improve or expand the skills and knowledge of the licensee's field of practice. For questions about your mandatory PDH requirements, visit the website of your state licensing board.
*Online courses are accepted by all state licensing boards that mandate continuing education.

Consult with your state licensing board if you have any questions about the acceptability of online courses.
**The New York State Board of Engineers does not accept general office management courses, but will accept project management courses that are offered by an approved provider and that are technical in nature and contribute to the engineer's professional practice.
Please Note: Continuing Education credits for this course are awarded as PDH (Professional Development Hour Credits).
