  • Title: Incorporation of the Multiple Barrier Approach in drinking water risk assessment tools.
    Author: Summerscales IM, McBean EA.
    Journal: J Water Health; 2011 Jun; 9(2):349-60. PubMed ID: 21942199.
    Abstract:
    A number of existing risk assessment tools make reference to, or incorporate, a Multiple Barrier Approach to drinking water safety. Three waterborne disease outbreaks that occurred in developed nations were used as case studies to test a selected set of risk assessment tools. The outbreaks were used to determine how well the risk assessment tools identify hazards and vulnerabilities associated with different barriers to drinking water contamination.
