Summary:
Water pollution is not always evident to the naked eye. The damage "happens out of sight, underwater." This tipsheet provides a list of websites and databases that can "help track down polluters and show whether regulatory agencies are protecting the public and environment." Includes sites dealing with historic pollution such as sediment analysis and information on the cleanup of polluted sites, as well as sources for current pollution information through EPA and other databases. Several environmental groups to consult also provided.
