Spring / Mineral Water
Spring Water
Bottled water derived from an underground formation from which water flows naturally to the surface of the earth. Spring water must be collected only at the spring or though a borehole tapping the underground formation finding the spring. There must be natural force causing the water to flow to the surface through a natural orifice. Spring water collected with use of external force must be from the same underground stratum as the spring and must have all the same physical properties and be of the same composition and quality of the water that flows naturally to the surface. Spring water must contain less than 500 parts per million (ppm) of total dissolved solids.
Mineral Water
Bottled water which would meet the definition of spring water except it contains more then 500 ppm of total dissolved solids.
