The New York Times previously did a series on water pollution, clean water laws, and health costs associated with both. The NYT reports that in the last five year manufacturers and factories have violated clean water laws more than half a million times (2009). Unfortunately, not all of the violators are punished, due to officials ignoring the violations (Duhigg, 2009). The article also provides a link to a state by state overview of Clean Water Act violations.
