What is in the water at 07828

6 public water systems serve this ZIP code in the federal records. Everything below comes from EPA monitoring data, and everything missing is named.

MT OLIVE VILLAGES WATER

PWSID NJ1427001 · NJ

PFAS and lithium

4 compounds detected at or above the reporting limit under EPA’s UCMR 5 monitoring, across 18 samples.

CompoundHighest detectedSamplesMost recent
PFOA0.0063 µg/L64/11/2023
PFOS0.0062 µg/L64/11/2023
PFPeA0.0052 µg/L311/6/2023
PFHxA0.0038 µg/L311/6/2023

A detection is a measurement, not a violation and not a health finding. EPA states that UCMR 5 results do not indicate compliance or non-compliance with any limit.

Health-based violations

4 open health-based violation(s) recorded in SDWIS and not yet returned to compliance.

Hardness

No hardness measurement. Hardness is measured at environmental monitoring stations, and none fell inside this system’s service area. That is a gap in where monitoring happens, not a finding about the water.

PFAS and lithium

4 compounds detected at or above the reporting limit under EPA’s UCMR 5 monitoring, across 24 samples.

A detection is a measurement, not a violation and not a health finding. EPA states that UCMR 5 results do not indicate compliance or non-compliance with any limit.

Health-based violations

No open health-based violation on record. This covers MCL, treatment technique and MRDL violations in SDWIS that have not been returned to compliance. It excludes monitoring and reporting violations, which are the large majority nationally, so this is not “no violations”, and SDWIS completeness varies by state.

Hardness

Median hardness 191 mg/L as CaCO₃, measured at 2 stations serving this system across 10 results, 2016-05-23 to 2022-06-06. Measured in the water source and distribution area, not at a tap, and not in your home.

MT OLIVE TWP W D VILLAGE

PWSID NJ1427007 · NJ

PFAS and lithium

Sampled, nothing detected. Tested for 30 compounds under UCMR 5 with none found at or above its reporting limit. A reporting limit is the lowest concentration the method can measure, so this means “below that” rather than “zero”.

Health-based violations

No open health-based violation on record. This covers MCL, treatment technique and MRDL violations in SDWIS that have not been returned to compliance. It excludes monitoring and reporting violations, which are the large majority nationally, so this is not “no violations”, and SDWIS completeness varies by state.

What this report cannot tell you

Every figure describes water at a sampling point: a treatment plant, an entry point to the distribution system, or a monitoring station. None of it describes water arriving at your tap. Plumbing between the two can add lead and copper, and if your home was built before 1986 a test kit tells you something no federal dataset can.
