Go to the EPA Groundwater Report (http://www.epa.gov/safewater/dwinfo/index.html ) web site. Click on the state in which you live. Once your state information loads up, find the water system or district that serves your home (or the nearest system to you) by clicking on the blue “your water quality report” link near the middle of the page under the header “The Water You Drink”. Review any information on the water quality or past violations for your system. Write a short essay of at least 1 page discussing issues related to groundwater in your state and the area of the state in which you live. If the EPA site does not list your CCR, conduct a Google to search for any information you might find relevant using the name of your city, the state and “water quality CCR”. If that does not work, email me the city and state in which you live and I can help. In your paper, be sure and tell me the city and state in which you live. Submit your paper to the appropriate folder in the Dropbox area of the course.
