USGS and CDC RELEASE ON-LINE REPORT ON WATER QUALITY IN DOMESTIC WELLS
USGS, in collaboration with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), has released an online report on the occurrence of 11 priority water-quality constituents of possible health concern in domestic wells located in 16 States across the U.S. (http://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2007/5213/).

Measures of water-quality, water use, and other geospatial data (such as for land use and hydrogeology) are compiled, mapped and tabulated for each of the 16 States that are participating in CDC's Environmental Public Health Tracking Program (EPHT). A brief summary is provided, also by State, on the occurrence of the water-quality constituents and comparisons of their concentrations to U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) human-health water-quality benchmarks. Findings can be used to highlight general geographic areas within the States where concentrations may be of potential human-health concern.

The States include California, Connecticut, Florida, Massachusetts, Maryland, Maine, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Utah, Washington, and Wisconsin.
