Excerpt: From protecting biodiversity to ensuring the safety of drinking water, the biochemical makeup of rivers and streams around the United States is critical for human and environmental welfare.

In excess, salinity can make water undrinkable, increase the cost of treating water, and harm freshwater fish and wildlife.
