When we grew up, you could simply turn on the faucet and drink whatever came out of it. In a way, we have all lost our innocence since then. Now we know better. And sadly, now we know that we have to take a close look at what is that we are being asked to drink. As a result of recent amendments to federal law, many water suppliers must now provide their customers with fairly exhaustive lists of potentially harmful substances that may be found in their drinking water.
Possible contaminants vary all over the United States.
Industrial areas may have certain kinds of pollutants. Rural areas may be susceptible to other kinds of pollutants. When you receive these reports, you really should look at them, if you will permit me to so suggest. What I mean by this is that we are so inundated with junk mail that we tend to miss the few things that really count. These water quality reports really do count because they can affect your health.
