GUELPH, ONTARIO, May 28, 2010 (Water Tech) — In a column posted on nationalpost.com, John B. Challinor II, director of corporate affairs for Nestle Waters Canada, responded to a recent study that showed that bottled water contains more nonpathogenic heterotropic (HPC) bacteria than tap water.

Challinor quoted Health Canada as stating, “Like most foods, bottled water may contain naturally occurring bacteria which typically have little or no health significance. In numerous studies, heterotropic bacteria isolated from water have been shown to be of no human health consequence.”

He also referenced a 2003 World Health Organization study found that these bacteria pose “no significant risk to consumers.”

Challinor concluded by saying, “HPC bacteria can sometimes be found in trace amounts in bottled water and municipal water systems, even after disinfection.”

DELAWARE CITY, March 16, 2010 (Water Tech) — New tests have revealed that pollution from a defunct chemical plant near Delaware City is much worse than officials previously believed, The News Journal reported.

Concentrations of benzene, a known carcinogen, in the groundwater around the former Metachem Products plant are thousands of times higher than the federal government’s drinking water safety limit, according to the story.

At least six other toxic chemicals were also found near the site, the article stated.

The abandoned plant is located above the Potomac aquifer, which provides drinking water to residents in Delaware, New Jersey, Maryland and Virginia, according to the report.

Scientists are unsure about how the contaminated water will travel underground, the article stated.

Did you know that your body is mostly water? By weight our body is about 72% water and the brain is about 80% water. Many people are learning the need for more water and have gone to bottled water, but is that the right answer?

From my experience I think not and there are several reasons. One is the bottled water industry is not regulated the same way that residential water systems are, they are regulated by a different agency with different regulations. There are many articles on this you can see at Clear Cool Water.
