qs is only the amount of slop on phrase queries explicitly specified in the "q" for qf fields. So only if the search q is "water treatment plant", would the qs come into picture.
Slop is the maximum allowable positional distance between terms to be considered a match is called slop. and distance is the number of positional moves of terms to reconstruct the phrase in same order. So with qs=1 you are allowed for only one positional move to recreate the exact phrase. You may also want to check the pf and the ps params for the dismax.
