Government agencies for water pollution control

Government agencies try to control water pollution depending on the source of the pollution. In local communities, municipal authorities can look at an issue of water pollution control in particular; special emphasis is on properties in the vicinity of the muncipal area. Local boards can often make temporary or even permanent judgments regarding pollution levels and how to control the same. However, often due to lack of expertise, many cases may be referred to a department of water pollution control for the state or federal/central government department. Officials associated with different programs for the prevention of water pollution work together to obtain accurate information about a pollution problem, then regulate the problem by legislation according to the requirement.
