What is in the water at 62958
2 public water systems serve this ZIP code in the federal records. Everything below comes from EPA monitoring data, and everything missing is named.
CARBONDALE
PWSID IL0770150 · IL · serves 22,107 people · service area inferred by a model, not supplied by the state
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
1 open health-based violation(s) recorded in SDWIS and not yet returned to compliance.
- TT · contaminant code 0800 · began 2025-12-01
Hardness
Too few readings to state a hardness. 1 station(s), 4 result(s). Below two stations and five results this page will not state a number: a median of two readings from one creek is not your water.
SOUTH HIGHWAY PWD
PWSID IL0775400 · IL · serves 4,501 people · service area inferred by a model, not supplied by the state
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
1 open health-based violation(s) recorded in SDWIS and not yet returned to compliance.
- TT · contaminant code 0800 · began 2025-12-01
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.
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.
