Abstract
Using the Pipe Loop Model (see project #406), presents a protocol based on field testing the loop at various utility locations. Examines the relationship between time required to reach steady state for metal dissolution and metal concentration. Also determines the correlation of pipe loop results and actual distribution system lead concentrations. Published in 1994.
