We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: Safe Drinking Water Act Author: Ms. Earp [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 04/21/05 1:56:49pm PDT In reply to: Ms. Earp 's message, "Major Environmental Laws and Summaries" on 04/21/05 1:27:36pm PDT 42 U.S.C. s/s 300f et seq. (1974) The Safe Drinking Water Act was established to protect the quality of drinking water in the U.S. This law focuses on all waters actually or potentially designed for drinking use, whether from above ground or underground sources. The Act authorized EPA to establish safe standards of purity and required all owners or operators of public water systems to comply with primary (health-related) standards. State governments, which assume this power from EPA, also encourage attainment of secondary standards (nuisance-related). [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
