During a media briefing Monday morning, the City of Abilene announced they will no longer add fluoride in the water.
City Manager Robert Hanna said they will immediately stop adding fluoride in the water as an abundance of caution.
The decision was made based on a recent federal court ruling in California that may result in changes to theEnvironmental Protection Agency’s recommendations regarding fluoride levels in drinking water.
In a press release, the City stated it follows federal standards and theAmerican Dental Association’s recommendation of maintaining fluoride levels at 0.7 parts per million.
