This article briefly reviews an extensive field study by the US Environmental Protection Agency and the North Penn Water Authority, which resulted in the development of a series of models to investigate contaminant propagation in a water distribution system. The application of one such model to the exploration of contaminant movement in the distribution network of Cabool, Missouri, is explained. An extension of this work to a large water utility--the South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority--is also discussed. Includes 15 references, table, figures.
