Interim guideline.

During the initial development of this guideline, insufficient data were available to derive a livestock watering guideline value. Therefore, the Canadian drinking water quality guideline (Health and Welfare Canada 1987) was adopted. Since then, this value has been revised by Health Canada (1996). The revised drinking water quality guideline is now adopted as the guideline for livestock water.
