Dangerous levels of the carcinogenic chemical chromium-6 can be found in the tap water drunk by 218 million Americans, a new report has revealed.
The toxic chemical was brought into the spotlight by Erin Brockovich when she fought a power company accused of leaking the chemical into tap water supplies in California.
On Monday, figures released by the Environmental Working Group showed 50 states are exposed to unsafe levels of chromium-6 or hexavalent chromium.
Over 75 percent of 60,000 water samples gathered between 2013 and 2015 contained levels of chromium-6 above 0.02 parts per billion.
California state scientists say that 0.02 is the threshold which chromium-6 begins posing a cancer risk over 70 years of consumption.
