Implement a water-management plan for the cooling tower that addresses the following areas:

Chemical treatment—Describe the chemicals and procedures used to treat cooling tower water to an appropriate quality.

Bleed-off—Describe the procedures and appropriate set points for effective use of a conductivity meter and controls to automatically adjust the bleed rate of cooling tower water. Proper automatic adjustment of the bleed rate will help maintain proper concentrations and conserve water.

Biological control—Describe the biocides and procedures used to control biological contamination, including Legionella pneumophila, the bacterium that causes Legionnaires’ disease.

Staff training—Describe the regular training program or opportunities available to onsite staff with cooling tower management duties.
