[Assessment of the quality of drinking water in the industrial city and risk for public health].
Karabash city sprang up around the copper plant that uses local copper ore, which was composed of zinc, sulfur, barium, beryllium, arsenic, manganese, lead, antimony, chromium, cadmium, gallium, indium, scandium, thallium, germanium, osmium, and others. Centralized water supply for the city is organized from the lake Serebry and the flowage on the river B. Kialim. ⋯ Carcinogenic risk is caused by arsenic compounds, hexavalent chromium, and dichloroethane. Carcinogenic risk from water sources of decentralized water supply is 9,6 E-05, for water from Kialim reservoir--7,3 E-05. Maximum carcinogenic risk is associated with the water from the Serebry aqueduct, the risk reaches 2,17 E-04 and is characterized as unacceptable.

[The features of the establishment of zones of sanitary protection of the water source].
There are regulatory gaps in sanitary laws, which specify the procedure of approval of projects of sanitary protection zones (SPZ) of water objects. It goes without saying that natural complexes, where water intake is organized, should have a special ecological status, which plays a substantial role in the creation of favorable conditions for human health. ⋯ Sanitary regulations and standards (SanPin) 2.1.4.1110-02 as well as the Water Code of the Russian Federation do not fully take into account the statements of some Federal laws regarding the protection of water objects. E.g. according to the Federal law No 33- FL of 14.03.1995 "On specially protected natural reservations" there is a legal base for increasing the status of SPZ of water sources by enlarging the list of Specially Protected Natural Reservations by including SPZ therein.
