The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) tested for unregulated contaminants and chemicals of emerging concern (CECs) in drinking water across the state. The data gathered provides insights on how the presence and levels of some of the CECs detected in drinking water were affected by treatment, nearby land uses, and local geology. MDH tested for a wide spectrum of CECs, but only a fraction of them were detected in drinking water, with very few detections that were above guidance values. More information and the final report can be found here: https://www.health.state.mn.us/communities/environment/water/unregcontam.html.
