UNITED STATES GEOLOGICAL SURVEY
 
The United States Geological Survey (USGS) conducts monitoring, assessment and research activities to help understand and protect the quality of our drinking water resources. The USGS website (www.usgs.gov, click on water) contains reports on MTBE, endocrine disrupters, pesticides, VOCs, disinfection by-products and the latest findings on prescription drugs polluting our drinking water.
 

NATIONAL RESOURCES DEFENSE COUNCIL
