This article discusses the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (USEPA's) new regulatory strategy that could ultimately change the drinking water regulatory process as much as the 1996 Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) amendments did. This new strategy can be implemented without creating new amendments to the SDWA. This article discusses the four major points that comprise the new strategy: address contaminants in groups, in addition to individually, with the goal of achieving enhanced protection of public health more cost‐effectively; foster development of new drinking water technologies to address health risks posed by a broad array of contaminants; use the authority of multiple statutes to protect drinking water; and, partner with states to develop shared access to all public water system monitoring data.
