Lead Contamination of Public Water Systems
Lead contamination of drinking water is a major topic of concern across the country, particularly in areas with aging lead pipes. Lead contamination in Flint, Michigan; Washington, DC; and Newark, New Jersey, has focused attention on America’s decaying pipes. At least $384 billion of improvements are needed to maintain and replace essential parts of the country’s water infrastructure to through 2030, according to the US Environmental Protection Agency. While these improvements are underway, treatment technologies can be utilized to significantly limit the migration of lead into the potable water supply. This interactive online course will describe these technologies and opportunities for implementation.
