Cysts by Free Chlorine at 0.5° or Lower

 

These CT values achieve greater than a 99.99 percent inactivation of viruses.  CT values between the indicated pH values may be determined by linear interpolation.  CT values between the indicated temperatures of different tables may be determined by linear interpolation.  If no interpolation is used, use the CT 99.9 value at the lower temperature and at the higher pH.

These CT values achieve greater than a 99.99 percent inactivation of viruses. CT values between the indicated pH values may be determined by linear interpolation.  If no interpolation is used, use the CT99.9 value at the lower temperature for determining CT99.9 values between indicated temperatures.

CT-99.9 for 99.9 Percent Inactivation of Giardia Lamblia Cysts by Chloramines

 

These values are for pH values of 6 to 9.  These CT values may be assumed to achieve greater than a 99.99 percent inactivation of viruses only if chlorine is added and mixed in the water prior to the addition of ammonia.  If this condition is not met, the system must demonstrate, based on on-site studies or other information, as approved by the Agency, that the system is achieving at least a 99.99 percent inactivation of viruses.  CT values between the indicated temperatures may be determined by linear interpolation.  If no interpolation is used, use the CT99.9 value at the lower temperature for determining CT99.9 values between indicated temperatures.
