Time-related variability of physicochemical parameters of drinking water from the dug wells, and the existing and postulated solutions to ensuring the water quality from "private" water intakes

Abstract

The work is based on the results of the dug wells water analysis from Albigowa. Taking into account the annual monitoring which indicated a high variability of physicochemical parameters, the paper shows the need for the necessary changes to the current approach to "private" water supplies. This indicates the desirability of the appropriate application, if necessary, of the binding regulations regarding individual water supplies serving less than 50 people or providing less than an average of 10 m3 of water per day for a commercial activity or a public facility.
