EPA lab monitoring (UCMR 5)
EPA UCMR 5 monitoring (Nov. 2023–June 2024) checked this system for 30 chemicals (29 PFAS and lithium) and detected none above EPA's minimum reporting levels.
UCMR 5 results are monitoring data, not a compliance determination. PFAS compliance is governed by separate EPA drinking-water rules. Some PFAS rule changes are proposed for 2026 — see what's proposed.
