Read this first
Nothing in the federal data for this utility is above a health goal. That covers PFAS, lithium, lead and copper; it does not cover everything, so read what this report cannot tell you below.
1 health-based violation since 2016. Details are below.
What was found
Highlighted: above the health goal. Circled: above the legal limit in at least one sample. Every scale puts the legal line at its middle.
Also found, with no federal limit
EPA measured these PFAS to learn how often they occur. None has a legal limit or a health goal yet.
| Compound | Highest sample | Found in | Certification claim |
|---|---|---|---|
| PFBA | 5.3 ppt | 2 of 4 | None covers it |
Tested and not found
Below EPA’s minimum reporting level in every sample taken from Feb. 4, 2025 to Nov. 3, 2025. Not found means not measured above that level, which is not the same as zero.

What this report cannot tell you
- Levels of everything else. Federal bulk data carries results for PFAS, lithium, lead and copper, and violations for the rest. Nitrate, arsenic, disinfection byproducts and other levels are in Staunton’s own annual report, which it must send you every year.
- 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.
- Anything after the latest data. SDWIS data is from 2026 Q2; UCMR 5 samples are from Feb. 4, 2025 to Nov. 3, 2025.
