mainly piped water that comes from a single point : )

The point source pollution arises from identifiable source.

Further Explanation:

According to the Environment Protection Agency or EPA, a point source pollution is a sort of single identifiable pollution source from which the pollutants are discharged, for example, ship, pipes and factory smokestack.

Two common types of point source pollution are:

1. Factories: It includes the oil refineries, automobile manufacturers, electronic manufacturers, paper mills and pulps. They discharges the pollutants into the effluents. Some may discharge them directly into the waterbody.

2. Sewage treatment: the treatment plants treat the human waste and then transfers the treated effluent into the stream or river.

The unregulated discharges coming from point source leads to water pollution and unsafe drinking water. This may ultimately restrict the activities like swimming and fishing. Some chemicals that is discharged by the point source are not harmful while others are very toxic. The toxicity of the discharged chemical depends on the factors like the type of chemicals released, its concentration, the condition of the weather and the organisms residing in that area.
