  "abstract": "This regulatory compliance review examines the statutory and enforcement frameworks of the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) of 1974 across public water utilities serving over 92 percent of the United States population. The report analyzes Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) across primary drinking water contaminants, with focused assessment of chlorine residual disinfection requirements (1.3 mg/L1.3 mg/L), subterranean aquifer recharge protection, and emerging per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFOS/PFOA regulated at 10 ppt). Emphasizing federal EPA compliance standards and New York State nutrient phosphorus criteria, the analysis highlights mandatory reporting, utility workforce competencies, and toxicological safeguards against chronic organ pathology.",
