Guide to ship sanitation
Background
The issue of water on cruise ships and in aircraft/airports, which is covered briefly in chapter 6 of the Third Edition of the Guidelines for Drinking-Water Quality, is of considerable international interest. Drinking-water is addressed in the documents Guide to Ship Sanitation and Guide to Hygiene and Sanitation in Aviation, which are both in revision at present.
Expected end-product(s)
Two stand-alone documents for publication in 2005. The Guide to Ship Sanitation is now available as a draft for public review.
