| Abstract |
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has completed its five-year National Survey of Pesticides in Drinking Water Wells (the Survey or NPS). The survey is the first and perhaps the most extensive monitoring survey ever undertaken to evaluate the presence of pesticides, pesticide degradates, and nitrate in drinking water wells in the United States. EPA's Phase I Report provides national estimates of the occurrence and frequency of detections of nitrate and pesticides in drinking water wells. The Phase I results of the Survey indicate that at least half of the nation's drinking water wells contain detectable amounts of nitrate, with a small percentage of concentrations higher than EPA's regulatory and health-based limits for drinking water (about 1.2% of community water system (CWS) wells and about 2.4% of rural domestic wells). |
