NCERI\u2019s vision is focused on access to clean and plentiful drinking water for every person in the nation.\u00a0 To advance this vision, NECRI outlines a Federal strategy addressing \u201ccritical research gaps\u201d related to the detection and evaluation of CECs in drinking water to identify potential adverse health effects and mitigate risk from exposure. Five strategic goals were identified, as summarized below.<\/p>\n
