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

NORTH FRANKLIN WATER WORKS

PWSID LA1041003 · LA

PFAS and lithium

1 compound detected at or above the reporting limit under EPA’s UCMR 5 monitoring, across 2 samples.

CompoundHighest detectedSamplesMost recent
lithium13 µg/L28/5/2025

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

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

  • TT · contaminant code 0700 · began 2021-01-01

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.

WINNSBORO WATER SYSTEM

PWSID LA1041006 · LA

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

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

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.
