From the supplier: The Clean Water Act was created to solve the growing problem of the pollution of the country's rivers, lakes and other water systems. However, although the act helped control water pollution, it was not adequate to eliminate the sources of the contaminants. Thus, a proposal to amend the act was passed in Congress. The amendments will focus on the prevention of pollution rather than acting on the effects of pollution. The strategy entails the phaseout of certain chemicals and through improved industrial processes.
