Abstract
Aftergrowths in drinking water distribution systems were investigated in Sydney Australia. The microbiological monitoring results, collected over a 2 year period were used to provide information on interactions between various parameters. Results indicated that microorganisms and total coliforms were usually absent in waters with total chlorine levels over 0.2 mg/L. Results also indicated inhibition between plate count organisms (at 20 and 35°C), and total coliforms, particularly once plate count levels exceeded 100 CFU/mL.
