   Extractions: Revised May 2001 ARSENIC IN DRINKING WATER A rsenic may be found in water which has flowed through arsenic-rich rocks. Severe health effects have been observed in populations drinking arsenic-rich water over long periods in countries world-wide. SOURCE Arsenic is widely distributed throughout the earth's crust. Arsenic is introduced into water through the dissolution of minerals and ores, and concentrations in groundwater in some areas are elevated as a result of erosion from local rocks. Industrial effluents also contribute arsenic to water in some areas. Arsenic is also used commercially e.g. in alloying agents and wood preservatives. Combustion of fossil fuels is a source of arsenic in the environment through disperse atmospheric deposition. Inorganic arsenic can occur in the environment in several forms but in natural waters, and thus in drinking-water, it is mostly found as trivalent arsenite (As(III)) or pentavalent arsenate (As (V)). Organic arsenic species, abundant in seafood, are very much less harmful to health, and are readily eliminated by the body. Drinking-water poses the greatest threat to public health from arsenic. Exposure at work and mining and industrial emissions may also be significant locally.

All living things must have water to survive, whether they get it from a water fountain, a rain cloud, or a little bottle attached to the side of a hamster cage! It might not seem like it, but water is the most necessary nutrient of them all - so necessary that people can't survive for more than a few days without it. More than half the weight of your body is water - if you weigh 60 pounds, fewer than 25 of those pounds are bones and squishy insides, and the remaining pounds are made up of water. So let's see what water does for our bodies . . . jump in and get wet!

One of the primary goals of WHO and its Member States is that "all people, whatever their stage of development and their social and economic conditions, have the right to have access to an adequate supply of safe drinking water". A major WHO function to achieve such goals is the responsibility "to propose... regulations, and to make recommendations with respect to international health matters ..." . In 1958 WHO codified its guidance on drinking water quality with the first of several documents intended to provide countries with the basic information necessary to establish national drinking water quality standards.
