• Occurrence of nitrosamines and their precursors in North American drinking waters. February 2, 2022
  Krasner, S. W.; Roback, S.; (…); Bukhari, Z. 2020 | AWWA Water Science Eight N-nitrosamines were measured at 37 water plants in the United States and Canada. Five tobacco-specific nitrosamines (TSNAs) were measured in selected waters. N-Nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) was preferentially formed in chloraminated systems (maximum detention time: median 4.4ng/L). A small amount was detected in some chlorinated systems (90th percentile

• Developing a framework for classifying water lead levels at private drinking water systems: A Bayesian Belief Network approach February 2, 2022
  Mohammad Ali Khaksar Fasaee 1, Emily Berglund 2, Kelsey J Pieper 3, Erin Ling 4, Brian Benham 5, Marc Edwards 6 PMID: 33271412 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2020.116641 Abstract The presence of lead in drinking water creates a public health crisis, as lead causes neurological damage at low levels of exposure. The objective of this research is to explore modeling approaches to predict the risk of lead at private drinking water […]
