The short answer
1 result is above the health goal. The worst: Uranium, above the health goal. No health-based violations on file since 2016.
What handles itWhat was found
Haloacetic acids (HAA5), total trihalomethanes (TTHM), nitrate and arsenic: Missouri’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.
Uranium, chromium (total) and fluoride: EPA’s compliance monitoring file, samples taken from April 23, 2013 to Dec. 4, 2019. Newer results are in the utility’s annual water quality report.
Above the health goal1
Uranium
Comes from the source
3.3ppb
Highest yearly average, 2013 to 2014
2014 average: 1.4 ppb
Averaged by year, the highest was 3.3 ppb, in 2013: below EPA’s legal limit of 30 ppb, but above its health goal of zero. Its highest single sample was 4.0 ppb. In 2014, the latest year on file, its two samples averaged 1.4 ppb.

Haloacetic acids (HAA5)
Forms or is added in treatment
8.5ppb
Highest yearly average, 2020 to 2023
2023: not found
Averaged by year, the highest was 8.5 ppb, in 2020, below EPA’s legal limit of 60 ppb. In 2023, the latest year on file, it wasn’t found.

5.8ppb
Highest yearly average, 2020 to 2023
Averaged by year, the highest was 5.8 ppb, in 2023, below EPA’s legal limit of 80 ppb. That was also the latest year on file.

0.11ppm
Highest yearly average, 2013 to 2019
Averaged by year, the highest was 0.11 ppm, in 2019, below EPA’s legal limit of 4.0 ppm. That was also the latest year on file.

2023 average: 0.05 ppm
Averaged by year, the highest was 0.09 ppm, in 2020, below EPA’s legal limit of 10 ppm. In 2023, the latest year on file, it averaged 0.05 ppm. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest sample of 0.082 ppm, in 2018.

- Lead
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.”

Claim: Uranium
For: Uranium
At the tap, or for the whole house?
These come with the water itself, so a whole-house system certified for the same claims treats every tap and shower. A filter at the tap treats drinking water for much less. How whole-house systems compare.
Filters with those claims on a certifier’s listing
None of the filters TapBuff has checked so far carry these claims. Search the certifier listings for the claim above.

What this report can’t tell you
Everything else. Haloacetic acids (HAA5), total trihalomethanes (TTHM), nitrate and arsenic results here are Missouri’s yearly averages as CDC publishes them, from 2020 on, with EPA’s national file for 2012 to 2019. Uranium, chromium (total) and fluoride come from EPA’s file alone, which ends in 2019. 99 Oak Kimberling’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 Missouri cover 2020 to 2023; EPA’s compliance samples are from April 23, 2013 to Dec. 4, 2019.
Testing your own tap
No lab Missouri certifies is within 75 miles of the area 99 Oak Kimberling serves on the state’s list. Some take samples by mail; the state’s page lists them all.
Missouri State Public Health Laboratory: Coliform and E. coli testing for private wells and other private drinking water sources, in kits from your local public health agency. A free state courier can carry the sample to the lab overnight. The handling fee is $10, by check or money order.
