From sources to points of consumption: how water access and practices shape drinking water quality in a high-Arctic community

Key Points

To investigate how water access and storage practices influence drinking water quality in a high-Arctic community.
Analyzed drinking water quality from sources to consumption points.
Evaluated contamination levels in household storage containers.
Examined the truck-to-cistern water delivery system.
Noticed a progressive decline in water quality from source to tap.
Identified that household storage containers contributed to increased contamination.

Abstract

Drinking water quality progressively declined from source to tap in an Arctic truck-to-cistern system; household storage containers amplified contamination.
