Wow, how does it feel to make the survival rate for a type of brain cancer go up by 25%! That's a line for your resume.

"Yes, that's correct, I single-handedly improved the survival rate for a rare cancer when I was only a child"

The main issue is data, since water utilities don't like to provide it.

Geeze, flashbacks to my senior thesis in economics...

"And my findings are..... Inconclusive because the data I built my thesis around was not reported correctly by any state..."

That counts. 12 times.

Is there anything the average person can do to help get that data or provide data?

Oddly enough my friend is fighting with the electric company for this. They have it, but only per account and the cert for the API pull dies frequently (like weekly) so it is a "we have it, but this will be so painful you'll stop trying" type of approach.

I'd love to get a constant regular feed from a water company about my water line pressure and quality.

Thanks for the info! I'll make sure to contact my water company and local legislative officials about wanting transparency in my water quality outside of a one year report that tells me what I already drank is totally fine.
