1980--1989 Studies That Affect Your Health Through Contaminated Food and Water From Sewage
(248) 12/4/2010
Highlights
This period saw the development of a new coliform test to determine E. coli and other members of the
family Enterobateriaceae, acceptable methods for sludge use based on current knowledge and a policy to
spread the infectious sludge on fruits and vegetables signed by EPA, FDA, and USDA. EPA documented
the transfer of antibiotic resistance in wastewater treatment plants. Antibiotic resistant markers were used in
genetic engineered plants to confirm DNA transfer. At the same time studies were being done on the
potential health effects among sewage plant workers. EPA studies also documented the regrowth of
bacteria in sludge and composts. Moreover, EPA documented bacteria could survive on grazing land for up
to sixteen months. Studies also confirmed a transfer of Salmonella from humans: to sludge; to grazing land;
to cattle; and back to humans. In its proposed part 503 sludge regulation EPA documented 25 primary
pathogen groups and 21 carcinogens in sludge, five of which were carcinogenic by inhalation.

presence of Escherichia coli, for differentiating between bacteria of the genera Escherichia and
Enterobacter and for distinguishing members of the family Enterobacteriaceae)
