Just the Start.

I have written my paper but this is just a peek.
As one of many people who love to drink water the topic of water pollution and the ongoing lawsuit between Tennessee and Mississippi has made me curious so I decided to research it.In most parts of the world the water is filthy and contaminated.Many people get sick and even die because of it.I have just recently learned that the water in Memphis is the cleanest in the rest of the world due to our great sanitizing systems.About 300,000 people get their water from public water sytems while 500,000 people ge their water from their own private system.Most of Tennessee rely's on ground water today.
Recently there has been a lawsuit placed on Tennessee by the state of Mississippi saying that we have been using some of their aquifer's and in turn their water. They want resource damages on the order of billions of dollars.
Getting back to the pending water issue, Tennessee law states that all public water resources must be tested for contamination and be signed off regularly, however if you have your own private water system you are not required to get it tested but you must have hired someone to build the system and he or she must have a license and permit to work on that well.Many things can cause contamination things that Tennessee must look at to keep up our clean water.Chemical contamination is not usual but it can happen if we aren't careful with what we do.Our water supply is threatened everyday by our clumsy habbits and storms and other things that can affect it and Tennessee and all over the world for that matter must take precautions.
