WASHINGTON, Sept. 10 -- The Senate Environment & Public Works Committee issued the following opening statement at a committee hearing:
Let me welcome everyone to today's hearing as we look into the quality of the bottled water Americans are drinking-and the impact that bottled water has on our environment.
Bottled water has become so popular-and so much a part of our culture-that more than half of all Americans drink it, and about a third drink it regularly.
