Fluoride on tap at city Council meeting tonight | SeacoastOnline.com

PORTSMOUTH — Efforts to reduce fluoride levels in the city's drinking water will headline a busy agenda for the City Council tonight.

Included on the slate of items to go before the council beginning at 7 p.m. at City Hall is a motion to follow recent recommendations from the state Department of Health and Human Services, calling for cities and towns to adjust fluoride levels in their water supply.

The DHHS recommendation comes not long after the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, along with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, released a study on the effects that over-fluoridation can have on humans.
