Starbuck,

There is a difference between being wrong, which it turns out I was, and falsification. My general response is still accurate - the LT2 rule applies to a Public Water System, not an individual consumer. The City has to comply with the law and ensure that ALL of its drinking water meets the federal regulations. Trying to ensure that every customer has and maintains an individual filter at the tap(s) in every home, business and location where potable water may be served would be impossible and not very practical.
