Chlorides may get into surface water from several sources including:

• Rocks containing chlorides,
• Agricultural runoff,
• Wastewater from industries,
• Oil well wastes, and
• Effluent wastewater from wastewater treatment plants.

Chlorides can corrode metals and affect the taste of food products. Therefore, water that is used in industry or processed for any use has a recommended maximum chloride level. Chlorides can contaminate freshwater streams and lakes. Fish and aquatic communities cannot survive in high levels of chlorides.
