US drinking water quality: exposure risk profiles for seven legacy and emerging contaminants
Summary
Researchers profiled the risk exposure patterns for seven contaminants found in US drinking water, including both legacy pollutants and emerging threats, finding that contamination is widespread even in developed water systems. Understanding which contaminants affect which communities is essential for targeting public health protections and clean water policies.
Drinking water contamination is widespread, even in the US. Exposure risk profiles vary by contaminant. Understanding the risk profiles of different drinking water contaminants is necessary for anticipating local and general public health problems, ascertaining the state of drinking water resources, and developing mitigation strategies.
