Introduction

Background of Standard Revision and Technological Evolution

As the first revision of the 2007 version of the standard, HJ 338-2018 focuses on strengthening the following technical contents:

  • Added technical requirements for environmental status investigation of drinking water sources
  • Improved the technical steps and method system for demarcation of protected areas
  • Standardized the requirements for map production and demarcation accuracy (error ≤1dm)
  • Refine the differentiated division rules for different types of water sources

Definition of core terms

TermsDefinition pointsManagement requirements
First-level protected area Core area of water intake to prevent direct pollution All pollutant discharge is prohibited
Secondary protection zone Key water quality assurance area Restriction on pollution discharge
Quasi-protection zone Recharge zone or risk control zone Implement total amount control

Comparison of key technical methods

Surface water division method

Method type Applicable conditions Calculation parameters
Analogy experience method Water quality meets the standard and there is no major risk source Reference to historical data
Emergency response time method Risk source concentration area Flow velocity + response time (≥2h)
Numerical model method Complex hydrological conditions Two-dimensional water quality model parameters

Groundwater division method

Water source type First-level protection zone Second-level protection zone
Pore diving 100-day migration distance 1000-day migration distance
Karst water Refer to river type standard Generally not set

Typical application cases

Case 1:A reservoir-type water source uses the numerical model method to delineate the secondary protection zone. Through two-dimensional water quality simulation, it is determined that the TP concentration needs to be ≥3km away from 0.2mg/L to 0.05mg/L.

Case 2:The riverside water well implements both river type (1000m upstream of the water intake) and groundwater type (radius 50m) dual standards.


Implementation suggestions

  1. Prioritize the environmental status survey of the water source (Appendix A)
  2. It is recommended to use numerical models for verification of complex hydrogeological conditions
  3. Map production must meet the 1:50000 scale requirements
  4. Establish a regular evaluation and adjustment mechanism
