The short answer

Nothing in EPA’s and New York’s records for this utility is above a health goal. That covers nitrate, arsenic and other regulated chemicals, plus lead and copper, not everything. No health-based violations on file since 2016.

What was found

Total trihalomethanes (TTHM), nitrate, arsenic and haloacetic acids (HAA5): New York’s yearly summaries per water system, 2020 to 2024, with EPA’s 2012 to 2019 file for earlier years.

Fluoride, chromium (total) and uranium: EPA’s compliance monitoring file, samples taken from March 4, 2013 to March 11, 2019. Newer results are in the utility’s annual water quality report.

What this report can’t tell you

  • Everything else. Total trihalomethanes (TTHM), nitrate, arsenic and haloacetic acids (HAA5) results here are New York’s own yearly summaries from 2020 on, with EPA’s national file for 2012 to 2019. Fluoride, chromium (total) and uranium come from EPA’s file alone, which ends in 2019. Country Pointe Apartments’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; New York’s yearly summaries cover 2020 to 2024; EPA’s compliance samples are from March 4, 2013 to March 11, 2019.

Testing your own tap

Country Pointe Apartments’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 New York certifies.

No lab New York certifies is within 75 miles of the area Country Pointe Apartments serves on the state’s list. Some take samples by mail; the state’s page lists them all.
