<h1><span class="date">2009: </span> <span class="title">Many reservation homes lack clean drinking water</span></h1>
|
|
<p>Safe drinking water and sanitary sewage disposal are unavailable in 13 percent of American Indian/Alaska Native homes on reservations, compared with 1 percent for the overall U.S. population. The Indian Sanitation Facilities Act directs the Indian Health Service (IHS) to provide sanitation facilities such as safe drinking water and sewage systems to Indian homes. An IHS study recently finds that every dollar it spends on sanitation facilities yields a 20-fold return in health benefits.</p>
|
|
<p>The cost of providing sanitation facilities is estimated at $2.6 billion, with a backlog of more than 3,000 planned sanitation facilities.</p> <!-- Theme -->
