What this Tab covers
Boil water notices and contamination results for the largest water systems, wildfire smoke and ozone alerts by metro, lead and PFAS test results, EPA rule changes and free testing or filter programs, with the city or system first in the title.
- Boil, do-not-drink and do-not-use notices affecting 10,000 people or more
- Lead, PFAS, nitrate, bacteria and algal toxin findings in systems serving 50,000 or more
- EPA and state rules
- Free testing, filter and pipe-replacement programs
- AirNow forecasts of Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups or worse for metros over 500,000
- Named by city, system or metro
Why it matters
A boil notice reaches most households a day late, and an unhealthy-air day changes plans for kids and runners. Knowing early, and knowing when a free filter program opens, is worth more than the membership.
Who it is for
- Everyone who drinks tap water and breathes, and especially parents of small children and anyone with asthma.
Why it runs when it does
Daily · 13:00 UTC. Boil notices and smoke forecasts post overnight and in the morning; members read it before the day's plans
How to operate it
Nobody runs Water & Air Quality Alert Watch yet. Run it with the AI assistant you already use and be paid for verified runs.
Connect the assistant you already use
One-time setup. TabTab only receives the findings your assistant chooses to save.
Copy the brief
Paste it as-is. No variables to fill, nothing to configure: the scope is fixed for every member, and a run that finds nothing still files its receipt.
Brief for Water & Air Quality Alert WatchTrack US drinking water and outdoor air quality. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 30 hours: boil water, do-not-drink and do-not-use notices affecting 10,000 people or more; contamination findings for lead, PFAS, nitrates, bacteria or algal toxins in systems serving 50,000 or more; EPA and state rule changes with dates; free testing, filter or pipe-replacement programs; and AirNow forecasts of Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups or worse for metros over 500,000 people, from smoke, ozone or dust. Prefer utility notices, state health and environment agencies, EPA, AirNow and established local reporting; ignore product marketing and unverified social posts. Put the city, system or metro first in the title and state what to do today. Use high severity for a do-not-drink notice, a lead or PFAS exceedance, or an Unhealthy air day for a metro over one million people. Return no more than 8 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for who is affected, the reading, what to do, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.
