This presentation provides an update on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (USEPA) efforts to evaluate and implement the
recommendations for contaminants for the next and future Contaminant Candidate Lists (CCLs). They include:
defining a set of microorganisms and chemicals as a universe of potential CCL
contaminants;
identifying methods to screen this universe to a set of contaminants transmitted in
drinking water for further scrutiny (pre-CCL);
developing a transparent process to identify which pre-CCL contaminants should
be considered for the next and future CCLs;
expanding opportunities for public participation in the CCL process; and,
evaluating new analytical methods, and technological advances that may be
considered for future CCLs to identify emerging contaminants. Includes abstract only.
