本文讨论了在选择符合消毒剂/消毒副产品（D/DBP）规则的处理改造的决策过程中，满足多个水质目标的作用。本文的主要目的是根据三个初步案例研究，确定公用事业公司决定实施这些处理改造背后的水质因素（除DBP外）。然后，本文研究了实施新技术以符合D/DBP规则的次要影响。

This paper discusses the role of meeting multiple water quality objectives in the decision-making process for the selection of treatment modifications for compliance with the Disinfectants/Disinfection Byproducts (D/DBP) Rule. The major objective of this paper is to identify the water quality factors (in addition to DBPs) behind a utility's decision to implement these treatment modifications, based on three initial case studies. Then the paper examines secondary impacts of implementing new technology to comply with the D/DBP Rule.
