The Dzit'lain'li community, also known as Middle River, sits alongside the quiet riverbank upstream from Trembleur Lake in central British Columbia, Canada. The community, a part of the Tl'azt'en Nation, has a seasonal population that fluctuates from five to more than 40 people. Since 1998, researchers have attempted to identify a water treatment system appropriate for the community and robust enough to treat high organics, turbidity, and bacteriological loading.
