Water of sufficient quality to serve as drinking water is termed potable water, whether it is used for drinking or not. Although many sources of water are utilized by humans, some contain disease vectors or pathogens and cause long-term health problems if they do not meet certain water quality standards. Water that is not safe for human consumption, but is not harmful for human use, is sometimes referred to as safe water. The availability of drinking water is an important criterion in determining an ecosystem's "carrying capacity."
Typically, water supply networks deliver potable water, whether it is to be used for drinking, washing or landscape irrigation. One counterexample is urban China, where drinking water can optionally be delivered by a separate tap. In the United States, public drinking water is governed by the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA).
