Clean and safe drinking water is one of the most important public health achievements in modern history. In the United States, our water quality is threatened by aging infrastructure, waterborne diseases and emerging contaminants. Addressing these challenges and providing a safe and reliable tap water supply for all Americans must remain a top priority for policymakers. Meeting this vital public health challenge requires careful risk- and cost-benefit analysis, assembly, examination and clear communication of the best health science and technology information, and critical evaluations of policy, priorities and options. At a time when government funding must be deployed to address a broad range of national crises and issues, resources allocated to protect our drinking water supply must be carefully spent. Our mission is to provide clarity and context to water policy makers, public health professionals and the public to help them navigate complex issues and assure protection of our nation's drinking water supply from all valid threats. We must follow the best available science and focus on the issues that present the greatest risks to water quality and public health in the United States.Keep yourself up to date with water quality news.
