What is in the water at 95046

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

SANTA CLARA VALLEY WATER DISTRICT

PWSID CA4310027 · CA

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

Median hardness 197 mg/L as CaCO₃, measured at 41 stations serving this system across 147 results, 2016-08-15 to 2023-03-22. Measured in the water source and distribution area, not at a tap, and not in your home.

CAL AM - WEST SAN MARTIN

PWSID CA4300543 · CA · serves 1,173 people

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.

CITY OF MORGAN HILL

PWSID CA4310006 · CA · serves 47,374 people

PFAS and lithium

4 compounds detected at or above the reporting limit under EPA’s UCMR 5 monitoring, across 35 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

Too few readings to state a hardness. 3 station(s), 3 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.

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.
