These animals harbor zoonotic pathogens that are transported in the environment by water, especially runoff. However little information exists on health effects associated with exposure to this potential hazard to human health; and water standards focused on control of human fecal contamination do reflect the contribution of non-human fecal contamination to risk.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDoes compliance with current monitoring practices using microbial indicators provide protection against animal and bird sources of fecal contamination?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePrepared with contributions from a group of international experts, \u003ci\u003eAnimal Waste, Water Quality and Human Health\u003c\/i\u003e considers microbial contamination from domestic animal and bird sources and explores the health hazards associated with this microbial contamination and approaches to protecting public health.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAnimal Waste, Water Quality and Human Health\u003c\/i\u003e will be of interest to regulators with responsibility for recreational waters, drinking water quality and water reuse; policymakers working in water quality, public health and agriculture; decision makers responsible for livestock management; and scientists and practitioners concerned with many affected subjects.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e A.
