That title is clickbait. The Waters of the US rule has been a hot point for years. Talk about a failed agency....there are numerous instances of poisoned dinking water, Flint as just one,...under the auspices of the EPA. Whatever they were protecting sure wasn't the drinking water.
It may actually be a good thing to have grown up in a place where the tap water is undrinkable (and that's on the rare occasions when you actually have water coming out of the tap). I never assume that tap water is OK to drink, no matter where I am. It does get me funny looks from people sometimes, but I'd rather get funny looks than lead poisoning, or cholera.

Edit: added more words.
