Contaminants found

Metals
Naturally occurring or corrosion-related elements, e.g. lead, arsenic, copper
Lead Summary
Detected: 0 mg/L (ppm)
12/31/2022
Arsenic
Detected: 7.1 UG/L (ppb)
10/1/2025
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: 1.34 PCI/L
6/26/2025
A naturally occurring radioactive metal. Long-term exposure above the legal limit is associated with kidney effects and increased cancer risk.
Iron
Detected: 150 UG/L (ppb)
3/27/2025
Mostly an aesthetic issue (metallic taste, staining) rather than a health concern at typical levels.
Disinfection Byproducts
Formed when chlorine used to disinfect water reacts with organic matter
TTHM
Detected: 5 UG/L (ppb)
8/7/2025
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.
Bromoform
Detected: 3 UG/L (ppb)
8/7/2025
Bromodichloromethane
Detected: 1 UG/L (ppb)
5/8/2025
Dibromochloromethane
Detected: 1 UG/L (ppb)

Inorganics
Common dissolved minerals and salts, e.g. nitrate, fluoride, chloride
Nitrate
Detected: 2.4 MG/L (ppm)
6/26/2025
Commonly from agricultural fertilizer runoff or septic systems. Above the legal limit, it's an immediate concern especially for infants.
Minerals
Everyday minerals that mainly affect taste and water hardness
