Lead Summary
Detected: 0 mg/L (ppm)

Disinfection Byproducts
Formed when chlorine used to disinfect water reacts with organic matter
Totalhaloaceticacids (HAA5)
Detected: 13 UG/L (ppb)
7/9/2025
TTHM
Detected: 25 UG/L (ppb)
7/9/2025
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.
Chloroform
Detected: 18 UG/L (ppb)
7/9/2025
One of the individual trihalomethane disinfection byproducts, formed when chlorine reacts with organic matter.
Bromoform
