Today is World Water Day!

Begun in 1993, World Water Day is a United Nations Observance held annually on March 22, focused on the importance of freshwater and sustainability of freshwater resources. This year’s theme is “Water for Peace,” with a strong focus on unity and cooperation aimed at providing stability for access to freshwater. Clean water is not a luxury afforded to all, and as of 2022 there were 2.2 billion people worldwide living without safely managed drinking water.¹ At CIL, we support water-testing programs by developing standards used for screening for a wide variety of water contaminants of concern.

Regular analytical testing of drinking water, surface waters, and wastewater discharge is essential to ensure safety for public health and the environment. Initiatives such as the EU Water Framework Directive and the US EPA Safe Drinking Water Act provide scope and direction for analytical methods and standards.
