Contaminants Exceeding Limits

The following contaminants have exceeded the guideline limits at least once in the last year.

  • CO

    Combined Radium (-226 & -228)

    Radium-226 and -228 are radioactive elements that enter water from eroding rock and soil. These naturally occurring contaminants increase the risk of cancer.

    72.000 pci/l
    EPA limit 5.000 pci/l
  • GR

    Gross Beta Particle Activity

    Gross Beta Particle Activity measures radioactivity from beta-emitting particles in water. Sources include nuclear facilities and certain minerals. It increases cancer risk.

    98.600 pci/l
    EPA limit 50.000 pci/l
  • HA

    Haloacetic Acids

    Haloacetic acids are byproducts formed when chlorine disinfectants react with organic matter in water. They are regulated contaminants linked to increased cancer risk.

    61.000 ppb
    EPA limit 60.000 ppb
  • LE

    Lead

    Lead is a toxic metal that can leach into water from old pipes and plumbing fixtures. It harms brain development in children and has no safe exposure level.

    15.200 ppb
    EPA limit 15.000 ppb
  • TR

    Trihalomethanes

    Trihalomethanes are chemical byproducts formed when chlorine used to disinfect water reacts with organic matter. They are common in chlorinated water and may increase cancer risk.

    299.000 ppb
    EPA limit 80.000 ppb
