A new livestock farming community has the option of three different water sources for livestock faming and domestic consumption. The three sources have been assessed in a laboratory for pathogens which have exceeded regulation concentrations - the results are provided below. As part of the decision making, you have been asked to assess the results having a good knowledge of waterborne pathogens and choose the best preferred source of water for treatment and use. In addition, list two advantages to justify your choice. Pathogens detected Burkholderia pseudomallei Неpatitis E Cryptosporidium parvum Water Source River Lea Pond Skrow Dam Campbell
