Abstract

Contamination in U.S. public drinking water systems (PWS) is estimated to cause millions of illnesses and billions of dollars in medical expenditures annually. Few prior studies have explored intervention strategies, including environmental enforcement, to reduce estimated health-related exposure disparities (exposure disparity) in PWS, which are driven partially by socioeconomic status (SES), racism, and PWS characteristics.
