Report on the 1990 IDRC funded study to develop a self-sufficient microbiological water quality testing capability within the Cree Nation of Split Lake / by B.J. Dutka, P. Seidl and V. Spence.: En13-5/90-170E-PDF
"This report presents the results from a unique experiment in which scientifically untrained Cree Band members, after being given minimal on the spot training were responsible for the establishment of a self-administered water quality monitoring program. In this program raw drinking water source supplies, treated drinking water in distribution systems and in barrels as well as recreational waters were monitored over a six month period. The bacteriological procedures used in this project were qualitative and semi-quantitative P/A and H25 paper strip tests and the A-1 broth MPN procedure for fecal coliforms. The results and problems of this self-help experiment are described in detail"--Abstract.
