Mostly an aesthetic issue (metallic taste, staining) rather than a health concern at typical levels.
Manganese
Detected: 33 UG/L (ppb)
1/14/2025
Mainly a taste/staining concern at typical levels; long-term neurological research at high chronic exposure is ongoing.
Disinfection Byproducts
Formed when chlorine used to disinfect water reacts with organic matter

Detected: 2.5 UG/L (ppb)
7/9/2025
TTHM
Detected: 20 UG/L (ppb)
7/9/2025
