Private well construction and water testing standards are not regulated by the federal government. States have individual regulations for private wells or lack regulations altogether. Therefore, the field of private well water research is not extensive. The study provided an analysis of private well owners' actions following participation in a well water testing program run through a health district in Connecticut. The study examined if there was an association between receiving an abnormal test result and type of well construction in relation to water usage, future testing, or the participants making changes to their water systems. There was no association found between any of the variables. The researcher also sought to understand what would prompt the participants to retest their water. The majority of the participants responded that they would test for various reasons however the actual number of people who retested their water was very low.

The safety of the nation's drinking water must be maintained to ensure the health of the public. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is responsible for regulating the levels of substances in the drinking water supply. Copper can leach into drinking water from the pipes in the distribution system, and the allowable levels are regulated by the EPA. The regulation of copper, however, is complicated by the fact that it is both necessary to the normal functioning of the body and toxic to the body at too high a level. The National Research Council was requested to form a committee to review the scientific validity of the EPA's maximum contaminant level goal for copper in drinking water. Copper in Drinking Water outlines the findings of the committee's review. The book provides a review of the toxicity of copper as well as a discussion of the essential nature of this metal. The risks posed by both short-term and long-term exposure to copper are characterized, and the implications for public health are discussed. This book is a valuable reference for individuals involved in the regulation of water supplies and individuals interested in issues surrounding this metal.
