PFAS and lithium

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

We do not state a hardness for any system, and this is why. Hardness here would come from environmental monitoring stations that happen to sit inside your water system’s service area. We checked that method against the figures twenty large utilities publish about their own supply: it agreed with the utility fewer than half the time, and where it was wrong it usually read HIGH. Cities supplied from a distant watershed came off worst, because the stations end up sampling local groundwater nobody drinks. We are paid a referral fee when somebody asks for an installer, so a number that overstates hardness is the last error we are willing to publish. Your utility publishes its own hardness in its annual water quality report, and that figure is the one to trust.

PFAS and lithium

Not sampled for PFAS. EPA’s UCMR 5 monitoring covered every system serving more than 3,300 people and only a sample of smaller ones. This system was not in it, so there is no result to show, which is not the same as a result showing nothing.

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

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

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”.
