Abstract
The Bureau of Water Hygiene of the US Public Health Service prepared a statement on mercury in drinking water in response to inquiries received by AWWA from health authorities and water utilities in the Great Lakes area. Interest in mercury stemmed from the action of March 24, 1970, by the Canadian Department of Fisheries to shut down the commercial pickerel fishery on Lake St. Clair. The Canadian authorities described the action as precautionary to be sure that no pickerel would be available for human consumption.Keywords
