    What is the level of contamination? They can find all kinds of things at the parts per trillion level. Almost everything in fact. Are they at harmful levels? (205 million would be almost two thirds of the US)

    That's why you need a Zero Water, water filter. You can filter out all that dihydrogen monoxide and pour it down the drain.

    US water suppliers cover up spikes in hormone-disrupting herbicide contamination, report claims


    Taking advantage of regulatory loopholes, US water suppliers may be concealing alarmingly high concentrations of toxic herbicides in Americans’ drinking water, according to a new report from the Environmental Working Group.


    The report found more than 30 million Americans’ drinking water is contaminated with atrazine, a known endocrine and reproductive disruptor linked to increased risk of preterm births and fetal deformities. Worse, discrepancies between reported federal and state measurements of the contamination suggest that local water utilities are gaming the regulatory system to avoid reporting “spikes” in contamination from the increase in herbicide usage during the farming season.


    EPA regulations permit water utilities to report annual averages for drinking water contaminants, allowing them to mask spikes in runoff during the growing season by averaging them with the low levels found during the winter – or even not to measure during the high season at all.


    While the US allows up to three parts per billion (ppb) of atrazine in drinking water, California classified it as a “substance known to cause reproductive toxicity” in 2016 and the EU banned it in 2003. Since 1999, the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment has advised lowering the legal level of atrazine to .15 ppb, based on a study linking the chemical to breast cancer in rats.
