juomavesimääräykset
Juomavesimääräykset refers to regulations and guidelines concerning the quality and safety of drinking water. These regulations are established to protect public health by ensuring that tap water is free from harmful contaminants and is safe for consumption. In Finland, the primary legislation governing drinking water is the Water Services Act (Vesihuoltolaki) and the Government Decree on Drinking Water Quality (Valtioneuvoston asetus juomaveden kalastuksen ja terveydellisten vaatimusten perusteista).
These regulations set standards for various parameters, including chemical, physical, and microbiological characteristics of drinking water.
Water suppliers, both municipal and private, are responsible for monitoring their water quality and ensuring compliance
