- W2321849541 abstract "Two related studies were conducted in Connecticut to try to assess cancer risks from asbestos in Connecticut public drinking water (1-3). Eleven of the state's 169 towns used source waters containing small amounts of asbestos (less than 500,000 fibers/L as delivered to users). In 82 towns, some, but rarely all, of the population received in their homes water delivered through asbestos cement (AC) pipe located in some part(s) of the distribution systems. The total population potentially exposed on a regular basis to such waters was about 600,000, approximately 20% of the state's population. The average possible duration of exposure was about 20 yr but ranged from over 30 to less than 5 yr. The published studies were correlational. They considered rates for all cancers, including those of the stomach, colon, rectum, pancreas, lungs, urinary bladder, and kidneys. There was no information about residential mobility or possible occupational exposures of persons who were reported to the Connecticut Tumor Registry (CTR) with newly diagnosed cancers. The U.S. EPA report listed individual cases of peritoneal mesothelioma by town of residence at diagnosis. Possible occupational exposures were explored by searching through city directories. No interviews were conducted for either study. No consistent evidence of a cancer risk from asbestos in water was suggested in any of the Connecticut work. In comparison with correlational studies from other areas, possible exposures of Connecticut residents to asbestos were quite low, generally only a few hundred thousand fibers per liter as compared with 50 million or more in the water supplies of both San Francisco and Everett, Washington. The second Connecticut study (2) should have detected a 50% in-" @default.
