Abstract BIOSIS COPYRIGHT: BIOL ABS. The data of a research tending to value the concentration of trihalomethanes (THM) in piped waters in same of the Communes of North-West Sardinia are reported. This study gives rise to further interest in view of the maturity (May 1991) provided for the equalization of this parameter to C.M.A. of 30 mug/l indicated by D.P.R. 236/88. The THM levels are constantly higher then C.M.A. in the Communes exclusively or prevalently supplied with surface water treated with NaClO. Conversely, lower levels are observed considerably in piped ground-water. We also refer preliminary data related to analysis of quantity and modality of THM formation in some drinking-water plants located in the examined area.
