Detected: 0.0029 mg/L (ppm)
Found at 4 providers
Lead
Detected: 5.7 UG/L (ppb)
Found at 2 providers
A metal that can leach from old pipes, solder, and fixtures. Current medical guidance holds there is no truly safe level of lead exposure, especially for children and pregnant women.

Detected: 4.9 UG/L (ppb)
Found at 2 providers
Arsenic
Detected: 8.7 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: 2.8 PCI/L
8/22/2025
A naturally occurring radioactive metal. Long-term exposure above the legal limit is associated with kidney effects and increased cancer risk.
