This manual, intended for planners and design engineers, presents information on water quality standards and design criteria for water treatment processes. This manual also establishes criteria to be followed in determining the necessity for and the extent of treatment, and on procedures applicable to the planning of water treatment projects. This manual is applicable to all elements of the Army and Air Force responsible for the planning and design of military construction.

Liquid process piping systems include all pipe and appurtenances which are used to convey liquids to, from and between pumping, storage and treatment units and which are not integral to any unit (i.e., piping that is furnished as a part of the unit). Required and related references are listed in Appendix A. This manual is approved for public release; distribution is unlimited. This manual includes criteria for the design of component parts and assemblies of liquid process piping systems. Compliance with these criteria requires only that fundamental design principles be followed. Materials and practices not prohibited by this manual or its basic references should also be considered. Where special conditions and problems are not specifically addressed in this manual, acceptable industry standards should be followed. Modifications or additions to existing systems solely for the purpose of meeting criteria in this manual are not authorized.

This handbook should be considered basic information for the required PrHA element, not a complete resource on PrHA methods. Summary descriptions and basic step-by-step instructions are provided. However, existing references, which are identified in each section, provide additional insight and should be used. The primary reference should be Guidelines for Hazard Evaluation Procedures (CCPS, 1992). IN addition, resources from relevant professional organizations should be used on a continuing basis to maintain competence in PrHA. These resources include books and publications, technical meetings, and continuing education. Each DOE facility that stores or uses hazardous chemicals in above-threshold quantities is required to have staff knowledgeable in PrHA. At least one member of the PrHA team must be knowledgeable in the specific process methodology being used.
