Contaminants found

Metals
Naturally occurring or corrosion-related elements, e.g. lead, arsenic, copper
Lead Summary
Detected: 0 mg/L (ppm)
12/31/2025
Lead
Detected: 1.1 UG/L (ppb)
6/20/2025
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.
Copper, Free
Detected: 12.4 UG/L (ppb)
7/3/2025
Combined Uranium
Detected: 4.7 PCI/L
9/24/2025
A naturally occurring radioactive metal. Long-term exposure above the legal limit is associated with kidney effects and increased cancer risk.
Vanadium, Total
Detected: 11 UG/L (ppb)
8/21/2025
Manganese
Detected: 1.7 UG/L (ppb)
9/16/2025
Mainly a taste/staining concern at typical levels; long-term neurological research at high chronic exposure is ongoing.
Iron
Detected: 31 UG/L (ppb)
2/26/2025
Mostly an aesthetic issue (metallic taste, staining) rather than a health concern at typical levels.
Nickel
Detected: 1.4 UG/L (ppb)
9/16/2025
Chromium
Detected: 3.5 UG/L (ppb)
9/16/2025
Occurs in two forms โ€” trivalent (an essential nutrient in trace amounts) and hexavalent (linked to increased cancer risk).
Disinfection Byproducts
Formed when chlorine used to disinfect water reacts with organic matter
TTHM
Detected: 6.6 UG/L (ppb)
6/16/2025
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: 1.1 UG/L (ppb)
6/16/2025
One of the individual trihalomethane disinfection byproducts, formed when chlorine reacts with organic matter.
Bromoform
Detected: 1.4 UG/L (ppb)
6/16/2025
Bromodichloromethane
Detected: 1.7 UG/L (ppb)
6/16/2025
Dibromochloromethane
Detected: 2.4 UG/L (ppb)
6/16/2025
Inorganics
Common dissolved minerals and salts, e.g. nitrate, fluoride, chloride
Boron, Total
Detected: 55 UG/L (ppb)
5/20/2025
Minerals
Everyday minerals that mainly affect taste and water hardness
Magnesium
