In his column, AWWA Executive Director Jack Hoffbuhr discusses the Clean Water Act and how the Act's primary objective, to restore and maintain the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of the nation's waters, has not been met in the 31 years since the Act was passed. Specifically, Hoffbuhr focuses on two major issues: the Act does not mention the protection of drinking water as a national goal or policy and that source water protection needs to be considered as an integral part of the Act; and, the Act does not address nonpoint sources of pollution, which represent a major threat to drinking water systems and public health.
