21、sport, treatment, storage and distribution), will contribute to meeting the drinking water suppliers requirements to ensure the safe, reliable, sustainable, environmentally friendly and economical operation of its drinking water supply system in order to provide safe drinking water up to consumers t
22、aps. This standard supports the holistic Water Safety Plans (WSP) approach of the World Health Organization (WHO) (see 2, 3). Across Europe, there are many different ways to organise drinking water supply. The responsibility for risk management may differ depending on legislation and the nature of t
23、he organisations involved (public or private). National legislation can impose definitions that differ from the ones defined in this standard. In this case, the necessary adaptations should be made in the application of this standard. This document incorporates fundamental elements of the WHO Water
24、Safety Plan approach. As it is based on risk management, the approach helps to prevent a potential impairment of supply. The goal of the approach is to support water suppliers to actively address safety issues in the context of routine water supply management and operations. Implementing a risk mana
25、gement approach is of added value as it supports systematic evaluation of the drinking water supply systems setup, diligent performance of system management as well as identification and prioritisation of improvement and upgrade needs. Furthermore, it improves communication among stakeholders, parti
26、cularly those who share responsibility for the water supply chain. The overall drinking water risk management approach employs the more general principles of value analysis which can be applied across many fields of business activity. This approach helps reinforce the significance of drinking water
27、supply risk management within the organization. BS EN 15975-2:2013 EN 15975-2:2013 (E)5 1 Scope This European Standard describes the principles of a risk management approach to improve the integrity of the drinking water supply system. This European Standard addresses all entities and stakeholders s
28、haring responsibility in the provision of safe drinking water throughout the entire supply chain from the source to the point of use. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 2.1 drinking water supply system integrity existence of drinking
29、 water supply system suitable to meet specified quality, quantity, continuity and pressure targets in accordance with legal/regulatory requirements and the drinking water suppliers objectives 2.2 hazard biological, chemical, physical or radiological agent in, or condition of water, with the potentia
30、l to cause harm to public health Note 1 to entry: Condition includes quantity. 2.3 hazardous event event that introduces hazards to, or fails to remove them from, the drinking water supply system 2.4 corrective action action to eliminate the cause of a non-conformity (non-fulfilment of an operationa
31、l target) and to prevent recurrence 2.5 risk control measure any action and activity that can be used to prevent or eliminate a hazard or reduce it to an acceptable level 2.6 risk combination of the likelihood of a hazardous event and the severity of consequences, if the hazard occurs in the drinkin

33、 objective evidence, that the drinking water supply system is delivering water in accordance with the set objectives and that the risk management approach is effective BS EN 15975-2:2013 EN 15975-2:2013 (E)6 2.10 drinking water supplier body responsible for delivering drinking water 3 Objectives and
34、 stakeholders responsibility A drinking water supplier should satisfy a number of objectives. For the purpose of this European Standard, the principal goal is the achievement of appropriate objectives in accordance with local and/or national regulations. These may include: health-based water quality
35、 objectives; service objectives (e.g. continuity, sufficient quantity, sufficient pressure at all points of delivery); acceptability (e.g. aesthetic) objectives. The multiple-barrier approach aims to establish risk control measures throughout all processes in the drinking water supply chain (e.g. pr
36、otection of resources, abstraction, treatment, storage, transport, distribution, water installations inside buildings). The application of the multiple-barrier approach is a sound basis to achieve the above-mentioned objectives. Responsibilities in the drinking water supply chain may vary and rest w
37、ith the service providers or other stakeholders (e.g. authorities, property owners). Each of them may have only limited control of the risks affecting the supply chain. In order to achieve the objectives of safe and secure water supply it is necessary that all the stakeholders involved cooperate. 4
38、Risk management approach 4.1 General The drinking water supplier should introduce a risk management approach. For the purpose of this European Standard, this approach aims to identify hazards and hazardous events, and assess and control resulting risks that may occur in the drinking water supply cha
39、in from catchment to consumer. This approach comprises the elements shown in Figure 1. All drinking water supply systems are faced with risks which need to be controlled adequately. The method employed to ensure appropriate risk control is called risk management. A consistent and systematic risk man
40、agement approach allows the drinking water supplier to analyse and to compare risks that may occur in the elements of the drinking water supply chain (e.g. caused by technical failures, natural hazards, disasters or malicious attacks). BS EN 15975-2:2013 EN 15975-2:2013 (E)7 Figure 1 Overview of ris
41、k management approach 4.2 Interdisciplinary group for risk management approach The risk management approach should be developed and steered by a drinking water suppliers core risk management team. The risk management approach should be applied by an interdisciplinary group whose members are adequate
42、ly knowledgeable about the drinking water supply system concerned. External experts may be consulted for example to support the work, if necessary. The respective roles of the interdisciplinary group, the drinking water suppliers core risk management team and the crisis management team (see EN 15975
43、-1) should be determined. 4.3 Drinking water supply system description The risk management approach should be based on an up-to-date description of the respective drinking water supply system taking account of relevant legal/regulatory requirements and knowledge gained from the interdisciplinary gro
44、up. This description should cover all elements from the catchment area to the point of delivery to the customer or downstream distributor. This system description should include a flowchart for each supply system. It can be useful also to describe the situation outside the drinking water suppliers o
45、wn responsibility (e.g. conditions in the catchment area or service installations in the customers properties). The responsibilities of the drinking water supplier and all other relevant stakeholders who share responsibility in the drinking water supply chain should be unambiguously defined together
46、 with the interfaces between them and their respective responsibilities at these interfaces. BS EN 15975-2:2013 EN 15975-2:2013 (E)8 4.4 Identification of hazards and hazardous events Hazards can occur at various points in the drinking water supply chain and can be triggered by a variety of hazardou
47、s events. The goal of this step is to systematically identify hazards to the processes governing the normal operation of drinking water supply systems as well as corresponding hazardous events that can trigger hazards occurrence. This analysis should be carried out for each element of the drinking w
48、ater supply chain and be guided by the questions “What could go wrong?“, “Where?“ and “How?”. The identification of hazards and hazardous events should include all parts of the drinking water supply system as well as the context in which that system operates. The identification process may initially
49、 focus on the aspects identified as essential for safeguarding the integrity of the drinking water supply and drinking water safety. The identification process should be as precise as possible and each component under review should be analysed individually. This process should also cover associated impacts on relevant stakeholders. The identification of hazards and hazardous events should always deliberately “ignore” the presence of any existing risk control measures. This will help to analyse hazards and hazardous events regardless of the effectiv
