Unregulated drinking water initiative for environmental surveillance and public health

Lorraine C Backer et al. J Environ Health. 2011 Mar.

Abstract

The critical public health need to assess and protect the drinking water used by 37 million Americans requires attention and resources. NCEH, in partnership with states, has begun the process to identify information available on unregulated drinking water sources to improve the availability of data to support decisive public health actions and resource allocation. Far more attention and resources are needed to complete this process.
