Our Testimony on the California State Water Board's New Drinking Water Standard

"Over the last 15 years I’ve seen protecting the public from hexavalent chromium become politicized at the expense of public health.

Its been a dark stain on California."

Chrome-6 Standard Set but Falls Short in Protecting Community Health

Community partners from the Central Coast and Central Valley previously made comments before the SWB urging them to fulfill their duty and protect the health of impacted communities.
