Can We Better Protect Vulnerable Water Supplies?
Recent news stories about industrial spills, fracking, a disturbing lack of data about hazardous chemicals have made the public acutely aware that industrial wastes can indeed accidentally contaminate our surface waters. Such incidents keep water utility officials awake at night worrying about the vulnerability of our water supplies. The effects of industrial spills on drinking water sources are not a new concern to the water industry. A perusal of the Journal over the past half century reveals numerous articles that discuss major industrial spills, regulatory issues associated with spills, treatment options, early warning systems, and other related issues. The article continues with proposed next steps in the process.
