U808U: Investigation of the Risk Factors for Sporadically Occurring Legionnaires' Disease

The potential of acquiring Legionnaires' disease in the home environment was studied using a case-control design with 146 cases of Legionnaires' disease and 275 matched controls living in two counties in Ohio. By multivariate analysis, cases were more likely than controls to have Legionellae cultured from water sources in the home, to have non-municipal water supplied to their home, and to have had recent plumbing work on their home.Franklin county residents with underlying health conditions had

U872: Methods for Evaluating the Impact of Demand-SideManagement Programs

This assignment had two major objectives:1) to serve as a "core" document for use by Canadian Demand-Side Management (DSM) practitioners in the planning and implementation of DSM evaluation; and ii) to provide Guidelines on DSM evaluation that are responsive to the needs of Canadian utilities. The DSM Evaluation Guidelines were developed following an initial situation assessment of current DSM evaluation practices and needs. The Guidelines are comprised of three major components. First, a sectio
