  North Cumbria Sporadic Cryptosporidiosis Study   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Ennerdale and Crummock water supply zones experienced a decline in incidence rate during and following installation of filters; this decline was in excess of that which could be explained by the FMD epidemic and may therefore be attributed to the installation of Membrane Filtration.
For Crummock and Ennerdale water sources where Membrane Filtration was installed, the incidence rate ratio for sporadic cryptosporidiosis post compared to pre Membrane Filtration period was estimated to be 0.156 (95% C1 0.076 to 0.320).
The risk of Cryptosporidium infection through consuming water in the different water supply zones was the same, irrespective of whether the water supply zones received water that was unfiltered, a variety of conventionally treated and unfiltered or private.

 Lakeland Landscape - Crummock Water   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
A wild and rugged lake, Crummock Water lies in the north west of the Lake District, and is the middle lake in the triumvirate of Loweswater, Crummock Water, and the very closely associated Buttermere; It is most likely that, in previous ages, Buttermere and Crummock Water were a single body of water.
Crummock Water is owned by the National Trust and, due to its less accessible location, it remains a quiet, peaceful spot.
Crummock Water is around twice as long as Buttermere and much deeper, and it is very easy to spend an entire day soaking up Crummock Water's beauty by simply relaxing on the shores.

 Cryptosporidiosis Decline after Membrane Filtration | CDC EID
Incidence rates were determined for residents by water supply zone and modeled by Poisson regression using the number of cases as the predictor variable and the number of person-years of observation as the offset (11,12).
Water supply zones, the time interval of observation, age, and gender were not independently associated with having a case (Table 3).
Consumption of cold unboiled tap water from public drinking water supplies was shown to be a leading independent risk factor for sporadic cryptosporidiosis with a highly significant increase in risk with the usual volume drunk each day (Table 3).

 CDC - Sporadic Cryptosporidiosis, North Cumbria, England, 1996–2000
Water from Ennerdale and Crummock Lakes was disinfected with chlorine but unfiltered because the low level of particulate matter in these sources precluded chemically assisted flocculation.
Disruption to tap water or change in tap water color or taste in the week before onset of illness for patients, and in the week before date of interview for controls, was recorded.
No difference in risk was found between the different water supply zones, irrespective of whether the zones received unfiltered water from Crummock and Ennerdale Lakes, other public supplies with a variety of conventionally filtered and unfiltered water, or private water supplies (Tables 3 and 4).
