[Box 1] Contamination confirmed in drinking water, wastewater and/or stormwater system

[Header 1] Remediation/Cleanup
[Header 2] Containment for Treatment

[Box 2] Contain water in situ or [Box 3] contain water in temporary storage

After [Box 2] then [Box 4] Determine treatment [Box 5] Apply treatment [Box 6] Assess water to confirm treatment and determine disposal method

After [Box 3] then [Decision 1] On site or Off site
If Decision 1 is on site then [Box 4] Determine treatment then [Box 5] Apply treatment then [Box 6] Assess water to confirm treatment and determine disposal method

If [Decision 1] is off site then [Box 7] Transport off site for treatment and/or disposal. [Decision 2] is to treat or to dispose. If [Decision 2] is to treat then [Box 8] Determine treatment then [Box 5] Apply treatment then[Box 6] Assess water to confirm treatment and determine disposal method.
