| Abstract | This study investigated to assess and identify the vulnerable points in Semnan water supply system based on Water Safety Plans (WSP) in 2018. The water safety plan quality assurance tool (WSP QA tool) software was used as a tool to measure the weaknesses and the progress of the water safety plan. At the first step, WSP checklists were prepared and completed up by experts' staff and data analysis using WSP QA tool. In the next step, system hazards were listed and ranked according to WHO matrix by team member's expert's view and the risk analyses were arranged. The results show that the highest compliance with the implementation of the water safety plan related to the step system description is achieved with (100%) and the lowest match for the step improvement plan with (0%). It can be said that old infrastructure, old pipes, and consequently pressure drop in point of use were identified as the most important hazardous events. Considering that Semnan water supply is groundwater, by further focusing on other areas such as basin, transmission and distribution lines and point of consumption, as well as full implementation of the water safety program in this system, more favorable results and coordination rates are achieved. |
