Pollutants in drinking water can pose serious health risks if consumed in high concentrations. Common pollutants found in drinking water include heavy metals like lead, mercury, and arsenic, as well as chemicals like pesticides and industrial solvents. These contaminants can enter water sources through various means such as agricultural runoff, industrial discharge, and improper waste disposal.
PFAS, a now realized issue in Virginia's water, is finally gaining media attention. Justin Shoemaker, founder of Clearwave Water Solutions, joins the podcast to discuss the topic.
Shoemaker says the status quo regulations really put all the responsibility on the homeowner to ensure their drinking water is safe. "Water quality is one of the most underreported and underregulated things we use everyday... PFAS is not a new thing - it’s in our waterways, it will be in our waterways for a long time, [and] it affects everybody."
