Ahoy All

As most Canadians and possibly some of our American friends will know,
there has been a severe outbreak of e.coli in a small town in
Southwestern Ontario.  It has been attributed to a failure in the town's
chlorination system.

This raises the interesting question: what is the conventional wisdom
regarding the chlorination of ship's water supplies?  How many cups per
how many gallons?  I've also heard of someone pouring some hydrogen
peroxide (H2O2) in his water tanks.

Any comments/advice/facts/web-references would be appreciated.

Cheers
