Cleaner drinking water on the way
On June 24th the Envi-
ronmental Protection
Agency’s first set of drink-
ing water health regula-
tions under the ‘‘Safe
Drinking Water Act’’ went
into effect across the Na-
tion. Now all community
water systems will have to
sample their water routine-
ly to make sure it’s clean
{ enough to meet EPA’s new
standards. Also, people
using a public water sys-
tem must be told by the
water supplier if their
water is found to be
unacceptable for health
© reasons.
EPA’s new standards
cover sontamination by
bacteria, which can cause
typhoid, cholera, dysentary
and hepatitis. They also
cover nitrate, which can
cause an anemic condition
in very young children.
Also included are limits for
such inorganic chemicals as
arsenic, cadmium, lead,
mercury, chromium, fluor-
ide, barium, silver and
selenium, as well as for the
pesticides endrin, lindane,
methoxychlor, toxaphene,
2, 4D, and 2, 4, STP
Silvex. There is also a
maximum level for turbid-
ity (murkiness), which can
interfere with the disinfec-
tion of water, and for
radioactivity.
Notification of bad water
may be made by means of
a notice accompanying
water bills, in the news-
paper, or on TV and radio.
The notice will explain
what the problem is and
what is being done about
it. It will also suggest
precautions the consumer
can take himself, if such
measures are seen to be
necessary.
EPA and State officials
believe that most water
supplies already neet the
standards. Those that
don’t, however, will now
have to take whatever
action is needed to remedy
the problem. :
There are still other
drinking water safety prob-
lems which may need
attention. EPA’s new
standards, for example, do
not cover contamination by
most organic chemicals.
Since some of these chemi-
cals are suspected of caus-
ing cancer when taken into
the body in large concen-
trations, controlling this
type of contamination is
now the subject of an
intensive research effort
at the EPA. The agency
plans to revise its health
standards to include organ-
ic chemicals, as soon as
they have enough scientific
data.
