Summary: An individual is requesting that the government conduct more rigorous and regular testing for drugs in the water supply, similar to the monitoring of PFAS. They argue that the government has not done enough due diligence regarding the impact of pharmaceuticals on wastewater systems and call for more transparency and urgency.
I am reaching out because families deserve confidence that our water is being monitored for emerging health risks. The government has not done enough due diligence on what happens after these drugs are used and flushed into wastewater systems. Please conduct regular and comprehensive testing, similar to the way PFAS and other concerning chemicals are monitored. This is a basic clean-water concern, and it should be treated with urgency and transparency. Thank you for considering this request and for taking clean water seriously.
