Dinoseb is a banned herbicide that can contaminate water through agricultural runoff. It's highly toxic and causes reproductive harm in humans and animals.

Dinoseb, a synthetic herbicide, was widely used in agriculture until its ban in 1986 due to severe health risks. It can persist in the environment, contaminating water sources through agricultural runoff. The EPA measures Dinoseb in parts per billion (ppb) and has set strict maximum contaminant levels. While no longer in use, its legacy continues to pose potential risks to water quality, emphasizing the importance of ongoing monitoring and treatment efforts.
