N.H. Admin. Code § Env-Dw 808.04
For aldicarb sulfoxide violations, the statement shall read as follows:
"The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) sets drinking water standards and has determined that aldicarb sulfoxide is a health concern at certain levels of exposure. Aldicarb is a widely used pesticide. Aldicarb sulfoxide in groundwater is primarily a breakdown product of aldicarb. Under certain soil and climate conditions (e.g. sandy soil and high rainfall) aldicarb sulfoxide may leach into groundwater after normal agricultural application to crops such as potatoes or peanuts or may enter drinking water supplies as a result of surface water runoff. This chemical has been shown to damage the nervous system in laboratory animals such as rats and dogs exposed to high levels. EPA has set the drinking water standard for aldicarb sulfoxide at 0.004 parts per million (ppm) to protect against the risk of adverse health effects. Drinking water that meets the EPA standard is associated with little to none of this risk and is considered safe with respect to aldicarb sulfoxide."
