PFAS detected

PFAS are industrial “forever chemicals”. These are the EPA's latest nationwide test results (2023–2025).

Contaminant	Max	Detection rate	Period
PFBS	0.0034 µg/L	2/8	2024
PFOA	0.0068 µg/L	1/8	2024

Other contaminants detected

Each bar shows the measured level as a share of the EPA limit: green is well under, amber is close to it, red is over. For lead and copper the limit applies to exactly the 90th-percentile figure shown, so red there means a real exceedance. For everything else the limit applies to a running annual average while the figure is the 95th percentile of this system's samples — over 100% is worth reading, but is not by itself a violation. Where a single sample came in higher than that percentile, it is noted under the bar. Formal violations are listed separately.

Contaminant	Level vs EPA limit	Detection rate	Source	Period
TTHM	120.75 µg/L 151% of the EPA limit, at the 95th percentile of samples — 80 µg/L worst single sample: 131.5 µg/L	76/76	SYR4	2013–2019
Total Haloacetic Acids (HAA5)	59.6 µg/L 99% of the EPA limit 60 µg/L worst single sample: 69.8 µg/L	76/76	SYR4	2013–2019
Copper	70 µg/L 5.4% of the EPA limit 1300 µg/L worst single sample: 110 µg/L	61/65	SYR4	2012–2018
Lead	2 µg/L 13% of the EPA limit 15 µg/L worst single sample: 8 µg/L	41/65	SYR4	2012–2018
