The short answer

1 result is above the health goal. The worst: Lead, above the health goal. 1 health-based violation since 2016.

What handles it

What was found

Lead and copper: EPA SDWIS monitoring periods ending 2010 to 2024.

Nitrate, total trihalomethanes (TTHM) and haloacetic acids (HAA5): Arizona’s yearly averages per water system, as CDC’s Environmental Public Health Tracking Network publishes them, 2020 to 2023, with EPA’s 2012 to 2019 file for earlier years.

Chromium (total), arsenic, fluoride and uranium: EPA’s compliance monitoring file, samples taken from March 5, 2013 to March 5, 2019. Newer results are in the utility’s annual water quality report.

Above the health goal1

Lead

Comes from pipes, often your own

Above the health goal

9.5ppb

90th percentile, 2022 to 2024

In the latest period, 9 in 10 homes sampled were at or below 9.5 ppb, below EPA’s action level of 15 ppb. The action level drops to 10 ppb on Nov. 1, 2027. EPA’s health goal for lead is zero.

13ppb

Highest yearly average, 2014 to 2017

2017: not found

Averaged by year, the highest was 13 ppb, in 2015, below EPA’s legal limit of 100 ppb. In 2017, the latest year on file, it wasn’t found in its one sample.

What handles it

A certification covers specific claims, not a whole standard. Look for these claims on the certifier’s listing, not the box. Wording varies a little: NSF writes “Lead Reduction,” WQA just “Lead.”

At the tap, or for the whole house?

Lead and copper usually come from pipes and fixtures inside or near your home. A whole-house system sits where water enters, so it cannot catch what your own plumbing adds after it. For those, the filter that counts is the one at the tap. How whole-house systems compare.

What this report can’t tell you

  • Everything else. Nitrate, total trihalomethanes (TTHM) and haloacetic acids (HAA5) results here are Arizona’s yearly averages as CDC publishes them, from 2020 on, with EPA’s national file for 2012 to 2019. Chromium (total), arsenic, fluoride and uranium come from EPA’s file alone, which ends in 2019. Adoc Aspc Fort Grant’s own annual report, which it must send you every year, has newer results for those and the contaminants this page does not show.

  • Your own plumbing. Lead results are the 90th percentile across homes the utility samples. Your home’s service line, solder and fixtures decide yours. A certified lab test is the only way to know.

  • What it means for your health. This page reports what the records show and EPA’s limits and goals; it is not medical advice. If you are worried about a health effect, talk to a doctor or your local health department.

  • Anything after the latest data. SDWIS data is from 2026 Q3; UCMR 5 didn’t sample this utility; CDC’s yearly averages for Arizona cover 2020 to 2023; EPA’s compliance samples are from March 5, 2013 to March 5, 2019.

Testing your own tap

Adoc Aspc Fort Grant’s results are for the water it sends out. What your own service line, solder and fixtures add shows up only in a test of your tap, by a lab Arizona certifies.
