Salt Lake and most other cities use chlorine to treat drinking water, a substance which, according to the Environmental Protection Agency, reacts on other sub stances to form organic chemicals. Traces of these chemicals, some of which have caused cancer in rodents when administered in massive doses. were found in 79 cities whose water supplies were tested by the EPA. Wilson said only three of them were found to be present in Salt Lake's water and these in extremely tiny quantities. For instance, one of them (chloroform) was 20 parts per He pointed out that there is no evidence that such small amounts of the chemicals can cause any health problems. The traces found in Salt Lakes water were in smaller ameonts than the average in the 79 water systems tested, he noted. EPA Administrator Russell E. Train said there are other possible methods of purifying water without using chlorine, including use of activated carbon, bubbling oxygen through it. and treatment with ultraviolet light. However, Wilson said there is no reason at present to substitute some other purification method for chlorine. Ile pointed to comments by health officials to the effect that much more research is needed before any conclusions can be drawn as to health dangers from minute amounts of the chemicals. One of them, Deputy State Health Director Lynn M.
