MTBE in New Hampshire Ground Water
January 6 | USGS Newsroom
USGS reports that methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), a gasoline additive, is widespread in New Hampshire’s ground water. Ground water from Rockingham, Strafford, Hillsborough and Merrimack Counties were the most likely to contain MTBE. However, even in these counties MTBE concentrations were significantly below the state drinking water limit and the federal drinking water advisory.
