What is lead?
The distribution of lead in the environment varies from place to place. Each of the following sources of lead is discussed further below.
The most widespread source of lead today for U.S. children is in lead paint that remains in older buildings. Lead may be found in and around workplaces that involve lead. Lead may contaminate water, food, and beverages, but the contaminant cannot be seen, tasted, or smelled. Lead may still be found in some commercial products. Some imported home remedies and cosmetics contain lead. Lead concentrations in soil, air, and water can be especially high near the sites of historic or ongoing mining operations or smelters.While blood lead levels over time are consistently declining, it is still a serious health problem for many, particularly children in urban areas.
How does lead get into drinking water sources?
- Lead occurs in drinking water through leaching from lead-containing pipes, faucets, and solder, which in turn can be found in plumbing of older buildings.
How much lead in water is too much?
- EPA Standard and Regulations as a threshold of .015 PPM (.014mg/L)
- Anything over this level is considered unhealthy and unsafe
