Full Description

This article discusses how the scientific basis of the US Environmental Protection Agency's (USEPA's) drinking water regulation for copper has been questioned because of the economic burden it will impose on certain water systems. Topics discussed are: copper as an essential trace element for human nutrition; the susceptibility of children to copper toxicity; the basis of USEPA's maximum contaminant level goal (MCLG); and, the contradictory studies which criticize the current copper MCLG as being either too low or not low enough. Includes 22 references.
