The maximum contaminant level (MCL) set by EPA of Hg in drinking water is 0.0020 mg/L. A farmer recently dug a new well for his property. He sends a 16.0 mL sample of the well water to the EPA to be tested for the presence of Hg. What is the maximum amount of Hg (in micrograms) that can be present in this 16.0 mL sample based on its maximum contaminant level (MCL) ?

New Jersey state lawmakers last year passed a bill that would
have required the Drinking Water Institute to formulate a state
regulation, known as a maximum contaminant level (MCL), for TCP.
Governor Chris Christie refused to sign the bill. The discovery of
the chemical 1,2,3- trichloropropane (TCP) in two public water
wells has recently renewed concerns from residents in the
Burlington County, NJ community.

diabetes in this article
Exposure to arsenic in drinking water is associated with increased prevalence of diabetes. We previously reported an association of diabetes and urinary concentration of dimethylarsinite (DMAS"), a toxic product of arsenic methylation by arsenic (+ 3 oxidation state) methyltransferase (AS3MT). Here we examine associations between AS3MT polymorphism, arsenic metabolism and diabetes. Fasting blood glucose, oral glucose tolerance and self-reported diagnoses were used to identify diabetic individuals. Inorganic...

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
