Wolman Queried on Trace Organics Stance
In response to the recent “Viewpoint” by Abel Wolman (Journal AWWA January 1984), the author expresses concern about “detectable” levels of contaminants. As monitoring technologies improve, some amount of trace organics will be detected. Health effects should be researched further, putting them into perspective with other sources of the same contaminants and other risks humans face. Also, prevention at the source will be less costly than expensive treatment techniques. Wolman replies that his position on health implications of organics has been modified as it became evident that effects and risks of organics can often be studied only on a long‐term basis.
