Environmental Working Group Says US Water Contains Dangerous Contaminants Still Permitted Under Law.

reports the Environmental Working Group released data Wednesday showing water samples from around the US containing contaminants “pose health risks but are perfectly legal under the Safe Drinking Water Act.” The advocacy group’s data “found 267 [contaminants] present in water supplies, many at levels above what scientific studies have found pose health risks but are still legal under the Safe Drinking Water Act.” The act has not been updated in “more than 20 years.” https://mail.google.com/_/scs/mail-static/_/js/k=gmail.main.en.HFKfDbXmXEw.O/m=pds,pdl,pdit,m_i,pdt,t,it/am=rcA8QL4fAhzMAGObTiDM_J-_XA4Pe377_38AOSrgG_Bv7v8J_DgAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACwRfEJ/rt=h/d=1/rs=AHGWq9DRzB-lNCadZoXh3L8AKomp03PB8A
