Water Quality Regulation
Water quality regulation involves standards and monitoring systems to ensure that water is safe and clean for drinking, recreation, and ecosystems. Governments set limits on harmful substances like bacteria, chemicals, and pollutants, and regular testing is conducted to verify these levels are not exceeded. These regulations help prevent health problems, protect aquatic life, and maintain overall environmental health. Agencies enforce adherence through inspections, permits, and penalties for violations, ensuring that water resources meet public safety and environmental standards.
