Book excerpt: The United States has one of the safest water supplies in the world.However, national statistics don't tell you specifically about the qualityand safety of the water coming out of your tap. That's because drinkingwater quality varies from place to place, depending on the condition ofthe source water from which it is drawn and the treatment it receives.Now you have a new way to find information about your drinkingwater, if it comes from a public water supplier (EPA doesn't regulateprivate wells, but recommends that well owners have their water testedannually). Starting in 1999, every community water supplier mustprovide an annual report (sometimes called a consumer confidencereport) to its customers. The report provides information on your localdrinking water quality, including the water's source, the contaminantsfound in the water, and how consumers can get involved in protectingdrinking water. If you have been looking for specific information aboutyour drinking water, this annual report will provide you with theinformation you need to begin your investigation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 20 years ago, when our children were very small, I felt the need for better drinking water quality and I purchased a small counter top appliance that hooked up to the water tap. It didnt take long before I realized that this was just a bandaid and that something more powerful was needed and thus I embarked on a mission to educate myself about home drinking water filtration systems. This was pretty much in the days before I had a computer, so I looked at trade magazines and sent for every drinking water brochure I could find, read them all and compared for quality and price. This convinced me very quickly of the benefits and affordability of solid carbon block technology and I ended up with a company that took the water filtration business very seriously and in my opinion did produce and still produces

The author has included the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency lists of microbes, inorganic chemicals, organic chemicals, and radioactivity required to be tested by the water suppliers, who must report the test results to their customers annually in the Annual Water Quality Report (AWQR) or Consumer Confident Report (CCR). Several commercially popular bottled drinking waters were analyzed for the presence of contaminants, with the results discussed in the text.

Download or read book Copper in Drinking Water written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2000-04-12 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The safety of the nation's drinking water must be maintained to ensure the health of the public. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is responsible for regulating the levels of substances in the drinking water supply. Copper can leach into drinking water from the pipes in the distribution system, and the allowable levels are regulated by the EPA. The regulation of copper, however, is complicated by the fact that it is both necessary to the normal functioning of the body and toxic to the body at too high a level. The National Research Council was requested to form a committee to review the scientific validity of the EPA's maximum contaminant level goal for copper in drinking water. Copper in Drinking Water outlines the findings of the committee's review. The book provides a review of the toxicity of copper as well as a discussion of the essential nature of this metal. The risks posed by both short-term and long-term exposure to copper are characterized, and the implications for public health are discussed. This book is a valuable reference for individuals involved in the regulation of water supplies and individuals interested in issues surrounding this metal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This citizen's guide to ensuring a safe supply of drinking water for all provides the information and analysis that individuals need to understand the issues and to participate in local decision making. The sources of drinking water, the types of human activities that results in contamination, and the contaminants that are of most concern are discussed. The workings of a typical treatment plant, who is responsible for ensuring the safety of drinking water, the requirements and effectiveness of the federal Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) of 1974, and the substantive changes made by the 1986 amendments to the act are described. Next, this guide surveys the various problems and issues in the management of drinking water. Discussions on how best to provide safe drinking water, what is considered safe, and what it will cost to provide a safe supply of drinking water are topics of discussion. The handbook concludes with a Guide to Citizen Action, designed to help readers learn more about the quality and management of local drinking water and to take action on issues of local concern as well as protect home water supplies. A glossary is provided, followed by a resource list that includes publications, national environmental organizations, health information organizations, professional membership organizations, state drinking water contacts, and organizations represented by contributing authors.

Book excerpt: If you care about the quality of the food you eat, you should know something about the quality of the water your drink. If you're like most of us, you take water for granted. It looks pretty good and has a reassuring, clean smell. Luckily for our peace of mind, a glass of water doesn't carry a list of ingredients. There's no printed statement declaring that this benign-looking liquid can cause cancer, or heart disease, or heavy-metal poisoning. Water fit to drink was written to shake your complacency. A recent general accounting office report says that "water supply quality may be deteriorating the nation's water supplies are threatened by the careless use of hundreds of chemical compounds and the heedless disposal of toxic wastes. The Environmental Protection Agency has listed 32,254 disposal sites with potentially hazardous waste problems. A check of water in 80 cities across the country showed that all samples contained cancer-causing chemicals. These were found in greater quantities in treated water than in "raw" water, because they are caused by the purification process itself. The result of our folly is that the National Cancer Institute has found 1,700 organic chemicals in the water supply of the United States and Europe. Having painted a grim picture, water fit to drink tells how you can be assured of a supply of good water. Are commercial tap filters really effective? -- Where can the home's water be tested? -- Can chlorine be removed from water by adding vitamin C? -- Is discolored water necessarily bad water? -- What are the pros and cons of fluoridation? -- Why is chlorination a mixed blessing? -- Why should only the home's not water be softened? -- If you're concerned about the junk in food, then read what's happened to the water you drink and cook with.
