Went to the second link, and got the real story. It was an isolated, rare problem. The EPA mandate makes sense. Only these three lakes had high levels of bromate in 2007? I was picturing my beloved lakes filled with plastic. "reservoirs exposed to sunlight are now rare. The area's reservoirs -- Silver Lake, Ivanhoe and Elysian -- first registered elevated levels of bromate between June and October 2007. But state health officials said the dangers were minimal because bromate poses a small cancer risk only after consumed daily over a lifetime."
