"Malathion is a registered insecticide and acaricide used on a wide variety of sites including agricultural and non-agricultural sites. In 2018 (the most recent year for which data are available), over 25 000 kg of malathion was sold in Canada. Malathion may be released into surface water or soil as runoff from the application site. Malathion is not usually found in drinking water sources in Canada. Low levels of malathion have been found in several Canadian provinces. The maximum reported concentrations are well below the MAC. Malathion is rarely detected in foods"--Executive summary.
Recent editions of the Guidelines for Canadian drinking water quality were prepared following a thorough review of the scientific, technical and medical literature on new parameters and on parameters whose guidelines required revision. This 5th edition includes the guidelines approved by the Conference of Deputy Ministers of Health as of June 1992. No evidence has been presented that would warrant changing the values proposed in the last edition. These values have, therefore, been adopted and are presented in this edition as confirmed guidelines. The guidelines and recommendations listed are intended to apply to all drinking water supplies, public and private, however, they should not be regarded as legally enforceable standards. This document provides an explanation of terms, a description of microbiological characteristics, chemical and physical parameters, and radiological characteristics. It concludes with a list of parameters under review or scheduled for review.

The guidelines and recommendations listed are intended to apply to all drinking water supplies, public and private, however, they should not be regarded as legally enforceable standards unless promulgated as such by the appropriate agency. This document provides an explanation of terms, a description of microbiological characteristics, chemical and physical parameters, and radiological characteristics. It also includes a list of parameters under review or scheduled for review.
Divided into four sections: physical characteristics, microbiological characteristics, chemical characteristics and radiological characteristics.
