WATER SUPPLY IN THE REPUBLIC OF VIETNAM

Abstract

The project was conducted to evaluate water supply and procedures, to determine water requirements and sources and the adequacy of containers and storage facilities, and to evaluate the purification and delivery means to meet the requirements of supporting US Army troops in the Republic of Vietnam (RVN). Drinking water for troops is not a major problem in Vietnam even though certain areas require improvement. Standard treatment equipment is considered adequate when maintained properly. Medical and engineer personnel need improved test equipment in order to perform the necessary test and evaluations of new raw water sources.
