Water pollution in the United States is a growing problem that became critical in the 19th century with the development of mechanized agriculture, mining, and industry, although laws and regulations introduced in the late 20th century have improved water quality in many water bodies. Extensive industrialization and rapid urban growth exacerbated water pollution as a lack of regulation allowed for discharges of sewage, toxic chemicals, nutrients and other pollutants into surface water.

  • تعد مشكلة التلوث في الولايات المتحدة مشكلة متنامية وأصبحت حرجة في القرن التاسع عشر مع تطور الزراعة الآلية، والتعدين والصناعة، رغم أن القوانين والأنظمة المُدخلة في أواخر القرن العشرين حسنت من نوعية المياه في العديد من المسطحات المائية. فاقم التحول الصناعي المكثف والنمو الحضري السريع من تلوث المياه وأدى افتقار التنظيم إلى تفريغ مياه الصرف والمواد الكيماوية السامة والمغذيات وغيرها من الملوثات في المياه السطحية.
