Bleach Method
When boiling water is not possible, filter water, letting particles
settle out. Pour off clear water. Add regular household liquid bleach
(such as Ultra Clorox Regular bleach -- not scented or colorsafe), as
follows:
* 4 drops regular liquid bleach per quart of water
* 16 drops regular liquid bleach per gallon of water
* 1 teaspoon regular liquid bleach per 5 gallons of water
* Mix well; wait 30 minutes.Water should have a slight bleach odor.
If not, repeat and wait 15 more minutes.
Hope this helps
