BOTTLED WATER AND THE FDA STANDARDS OF QUALITY
The true driving force behind the addition of parameters to the FDA SOQs is the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Safe Drinking Water Act.
Bottled water is classified as a food product and regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA has regulations that dictate
* What bottled water can be called (Standards of Identity),
* How bottled water can be produced (Good Manufacturing Practices),
* What can and cannot be on the label (labeling requirements), and
* The contaminants for which bottled water must be tested along with the allowable limits for each (Standards of Quality).
