Wisconsin Wants to Limit Dishwasher Phosphorous to 0.5 Percent

June 23, 2009: 05:42 AM EST
Wisconsin is debating a measure to limit the amount of phosphorous in dishwasher soap. The state Assembly proposes a 0.5 percent maximum, to come into effect by July 2010. Eco-activists say phosphorous runoff can increase weed and algae growth in fresh water. The proposal is supported by Procter and Gamble. Republicans have questioned the need for the new requirement.
