There are. In New York State, I believe they do that. I know that Americans have drinking water legislation where they are required every year. Many of these are private providers. My sister used to live in New York, so I would see her report. Every year you would get a report on drinking water, and what heavy metals and what carcinogens were in it and at what level, whether this was above or below some limit and so on. So you're talking about a community's right to know. I think that the more the public knows then the better we can have an informed discussion of what precautionary measures to take.
