What this means for you

Is it safe to drink right now?
Based on the latest EPA data, Church Hill WSC has no unresolved health-based violations from the past year. Water that meets federal standards is generally considered safe to drink for most healthy people.
Should I use a filter?
Yes, we recommend considering one. Lead results are high enough that a certified lead-reduction filter is a sensible precaution.
What kind of filter?
For lead, choose NSF/ANSI 53 certified for lead reduction (or RO under 58). See matched standards and product picks.

This is general information from public EPA data, not medical advice. Lead often comes from a home’s own pipes, so only a test of your tap can tell your exposure. If you are pregnant, caring for an infant, or have a weakened immune system, ask your doctor or health department.

Summary: 1 health-based violation in the last 5 years; 26 monitoring/reporting violations; 2 not yet resolved; No UCMR 5 PFAS results on file; Lead 90th percentile above the new 10 ppb action level (LCRI, effective Nov 1, 2027); Lead 90th percentile below the action level (2025).
