Water - General

National Summary The Clean Water Act (CWA) and the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) are the two major laws aimed at water quality protection. CWA provides a two-pronged regulatory strategy--control of pollutant discharges (effluent limitations), primarily from industry, and state designation of uses and setting of water quality standards for navigable waters (water quality-based control). SDWA requires EPA to set maximum contaminant levels for drinking water and water systems to be run by qualified operators.       View sample documents Read the complete analysis
