Illinois Agencies Support Point of Use Filters to Reduce Lead Exposure

 
 Volume/Number:  2019 May 21 
 Issuing Agency:   
 Description:  Press release: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) indicates there is no safe blood lead level in children. Lead exposures come from a combination of environmental sources, which may include lead in water. U.S. EPA estimates that water can make up 20 percent or more of a persons total exposure to lead, and infants who consume mostly mixed formula can receive 40-60 percent of their exposure to lead from drinking water.
