As stated in the introduction to this site, the
mission of the West Virginia Source Water Assessment Program (SWAP) is
to assess, preserve, and protect the state's source waters which are
used to supply water for the state's public water systems. The guide
assists trainers and operators of public water systems in developing a
source water protection plan. The guide, through multiple sections,
details the nature and goals of SWAP, reviews the fundamentals of
ground and surface water including the hazards of contamination, the
steps involved in developing a source water protection plan, quizzes
and a template that can be used to create, save and update a plan.
