What was found

Haloacetic acids (HAA5) and total trihalomethanes (TTHM): Kansas’s own results, samples taken from Jan. 12, 2020 to July 13, 2026, with EPA’s 2012 to 2019 file for earlier years.

Highest yearly average, 2020 to 2026

2026 average: 43.7 ppb

Averaged by year, the highest was 60.3 ppb, in 2024, which EPA rounds to 60 ppb to compare: at its legal limit of 60 ppb, not above it. Its highest single sample was 78 ppb.

What this report can’t tell you

  • Everything else. Haloacetic acids (HAA5) and total trihalomethanes (TTHM) results here are Kansas’s own from 2020 on, with EPA’s national file for 2012 to 2019. Montgomery Co RWD 14’s own annual report, which it must send you every year, has 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; Kansas’s results run from Jan. 12, 2020 to July 13, 2026.

Testing your own tap

Montgomery Co RWD 14’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 Kansas certifies.
