Contaminants found

Metals
Naturally occurring or corrosion-related elements, e.g. lead, arsenic, copper
Lead Summary
Detected: 0 mg/L (ppm)
12/31/2025
Copper, Free
Detected: 140 UG/L (ppb)
8/12/2025
Arsenic
Detected: 6.9 UG/L (ppb)
10/29/2025
Occurs naturally in some groundwater. Long-term exposure above the legal limit (10 ppb) has been linked to increased cancer risk and cardiovascular disease.
Combined Uranium
Detected: 2.4 PCI/L
4/23/2025
A naturally occurring radioactive metal. Long-term exposure above the legal limit is associated with kidney effects and increased cancer risk.
Chromium, Hex
Detected: 5.6 UG/L (ppb)
1/9/2025
Disinfection Byproducts
Formed when chlorine used to disinfect water reacts with organic matter
TTHM
Detected: 5.6 UG/L (ppb)
10/22/2025
A group of disinfection byproducts formed when chlorine reacts with organic matter. Long-term exposure above the legal limit has been linked to increased cancer risk in some studies.
