EPA Proposes Perchlorate Limit in Drinking Water
Update: 2026-01-05
Description
The Environmental Protection Agency, under court order, is proposing a drinking water limit for perchlorate, a chemical used in rockets and explosives. Despite potential thyroid risks, especially for infants, the agency doubts significant public health benefits. Perchlorate has contaminated groundwater in the Southwest and East Coast. After years of delays and lawsuits, the EPA will seek public comments on limits ranging from 20 to 80 parts per billion. Checkout Solipillow.com
