All are suspected of interfering with hormone systems of humans and wildlife..."We're involved because we know that these compounds are out there, and we cannot treat them in the wastewater stream," said Charles Hardy, EBMUD spokesman.

It is society in general and lack of accountability. We all just need to do our part. we cant go on a witch hunt.
