Although I am employed by the Philadelphia Water Dept..Belmont Water Treatment Plant, I am solely responsible for this page's content!!... As of May 14, 1996 this page is neither sponsored, or endorsed by the Phila Water Dept. or the Belmont Water Treatment Plant.... I have created this page as a public service on my own time, & with my own resources. I am also responsible for any inaccuracies contained within these pages... Also, as far as I know, this is still a free country so I will not be censored from publishing this page!

ENUFF said!

Acknowledgements!

I'd also like to take this opportunity to THANK some of the people who contributed to the creation of this page:

• John J. Muldowney (Plant Manager)...I hafta admit...MOST of the Chemical Treatment pages were blatently plagerized from the operator training course written (& compiled) by John...to save an emmense amount of typing, I scanned some of the documents from the course & OCR'd em thru Word Scan 3.0. I then edited them for brevety. (a tech note..In 12 pages scanned, Word Scan missed 2 words...which were accidentally misspelled in the documents!)...Also, most of the knowledge I have gained in the "high end" of water treatment I have derived from John.
• Albert H. Murray (Operations Crew Chief)....most of the photographs were taken by Al. (so yell @ him about the clarity (my scanner works just fine!) Al also provided alot of information regarding the plant. (He has been in H2O treatment for 15 years!)
• Donna Schwartz (Plant Engineer/My Boss)...Donna ia a really nice boss! :@) She is VERY easy to work for. She is also the source for a great deal of information found in these pages. now, & in the future... It has been a pleasure to be her assistant for the past 4.25 years! :@)
• Norman Jadczak (Plant Engineer)...It's because of guys like Norman that people like me stay in water treatment!
• MY WIFE ..Cheryl...for putting up with the long hours I spend with the computer & research books...she really is great, & I LOVE HER more than anything!...she is even tattooed on my arms!
• Last But Not Least.....ALL of the people at Belmont WTP, and The Philadelphia Water Dept. without whom, there would not be a safe, pleasing source of fresh water for the residents of Philadelphia & it's suburbs.

I'd also like to take this opportunity to thank BHI for creating the GEOCITIES, and allowing my page here. due to their generous nature, i'm sure I can develop this site into something you will want to come back to time & time again! If you are considering leasing commercial webspace, please consider BHI. Their server is WELL powered, & almost always (99+%) accessable! You will also be helping sponsor the GEOCITIES! Without BHI & GEOCITIES, this page would not be possible!

I'd really like to extend a great many thanks to my "Net Bud"...STONEY! ..We attended the Windows 95 Launch together in August 95. Since then, he has been a great deal of help to me learning the inner workings of the internet. The CSIM is a result of stoney's help also... His WWWpage is one of the McKinley Groups 4 star sites! It's a terrific page that will lead you to ALL of the BEST internet software available anywhere. Please checkout his page, you'll see what I mean!
