By Dawn Kitterman Verified, Jackie Llanos Verified, Mitch Perry Verified, John S. Kominoski| The Bradenton Times Verified The Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), enacted in 1974 under President Gerald Ford, established the first comprehensive framework for regulating and protecting America’s drinking water supply. This law ensured that the water reaching our homes is free from harmful contaminants and safe for consumption. It also gave the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) authority to regulate drinking water contaminants and allow states to take the lead role in enforcing the SDWA.

Company Info
Florida Phoenix
The Phoenix is a nonprofit news site that's free of advertising and free to readers. We cover state government and politics with a staff of five journalists located at the Florida Press Center in downtown Tallahassee. We have a mix of in-depth stories, briefs, and social media updates on the latest events, editorial cartoons, and progressive commentary. Reporters in many now-shrunken capital bureaus have to spend most of their time these days chasing around after more and more outrageous political behavior, and too many don't have time to lift up emerging innovative ideas or report on the people who are trying to help solve problems and shift policy for a more compassionate world. The Florida Phoenix does those stories.
