Drinking Water Not Always Safe
Most Texans believe that the
purity of their drinking water
can be depended upon. And
usually they are right. But
there are a few exceptions.
About 4,000 cases of illnesses
linked to drinking water from
individual home supply
systems and public systems are
reported each year in the
United States, says the Texas
Department of Health.
“While we have almost
eliminated typhoid and cholera
as water problems, we must
now deal with the threat of
organic contaminants, viruses,
and other disease carrying
organisms,” said Mark V.
Lowry, surveilance and
technical assistance branch
chief of the Water Hygiene
Division. “As you probably
know, water contains minute
quantities of many minerals
which appear in nature.”
Lowry said to assist in this
effort, Congress passed the
Safe Drinking Water Act in
1974. The law directed the US
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) to establish)
minimum national drinking
water standards. These
standards set limits on the

large safety margin was built
into most standards so that it
won’t be harmful for people to
drink water exceeding some of
the maximum contaminant
levels for short periods of time.

safety precaution required by
Congress to call public at-

Lowry.
In essence, Congress is
saying through the Safe
Drinking Water Act that
everyone has the right to ex-
pect water that meets
minimum national standards
set for the protection of public

plier must tell you—if your
