Abstract

Japan's rapid economic growth during the 1960s caused water pollution problems to spread and intensify. In 1967, the government of Japan enacted the "Basic Law for Environmental Pollution Control" to promote comprehensive countermeasures against the various forms of environmental pollution. Environmental Quality Standards (EQS) for water pollutants are target levels for water quality that are to be achieved and maintained in public waters. These standards are established to achieve two major goals: protection of HUMAN HEALTH and conservation of the living environment. The first goal is met by setting uniform national standards applicable to all public waters. However, the second goal is achieved by classifying rivers, lakes, reservoirs, and coastal waters based on water usage and by establishing EQS values for each class. In March 1993, the Environment Agency broadened and strengthened the EQS for protecting HUMAN HEALTH. As a result, EQS for a total of forty-eight substances including cadmium and cyanide are now available. The main aim of this paper is to review WATER QUALITY STANDARDs in Japan and the results can be useful for the developing countries such as Iran.
