AP survey of 52 smaller cities show no testing for pharmaceuticals in drinking water

The Associated Press surveyed 52 small water providers that serve communities with populations generally around 25,000 — one in each state, and two in Missouri and Texas.

All but one said their drinking water had not been screened for pharmaceuticals; officials in that community, Emporia, Kan., refused to answer AP's questions, citing post-9/11 security concerns.
