The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has been considering a more stringent regulation of arsenic in water. A significant reduction in the Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) could increase compliance costs for water utilities. This book discusses the adequacy of the EPA MCL for protecting human health in the context of EPA policy.
