The ZIP code it serves
The short answer
1 result is above the health goal. The worst: Uranium, above the health goal. 4 health-based violations since 2016.
What handles itWhat was found
Uranium, nitrate, arsenic, haloacetic acids (HAA5) and total trihalomethanes (TTHM): North Carolina’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.
Fluoride and chromium (total): EPA’s compliance monitoring file, samples taken from July 24, 2013 to April 1, 2019. Newer results are in the utility’s annual water quality report.
Above the health goal1
Uranium
Comes from the source
16.7ppb
Highest yearly average, 2022
Averaged by year, the highest was 16.7 ppb, in 2022: below EPA’s legal limit of 30 ppb, but above its health goal of zero. That is the only year on file. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest yearly average of 21.3 ppb, in 2016.
What handles it
- NSF/ANSI 58 look for “Uranium”
Below EPA’s limits2
Nitrate
Comes from the source
4.9ppm
Highest yearly average, 2020 to 2023
2023 average: 4.4 ppm
Averaged by year, the highest was 4.9 ppm, in 2021, below EPA’s legal limit of 10 ppm. In 2023, the latest year on file, it averaged 4.4 ppm. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest sample of 4.4 ppm, in 2019.
What handles it
- NSF/ANSI 58 look for “Nitrate/Nitrite Reduction”
- NSF/ANSI 53 look for “Nitrate/Nitrite (30 ppm challenge)”
Fluoride
Forms or is added in treatment
1.6ppm
Highest yearly average, 2013 to 2019
2019, one sample: 1.0 ppm
Averaged by year, the highest was 1.6 ppm, in 2015, below EPA’s legal limit of 4.0 ppm. Its highest single sample was 1.7 ppm. In 2019, the latest year on file, its one sample was 1.0 ppm.
What handles it
- NSF/ANSI 58 look for “Fluoride Reduction”
- NSF/ANSI 53 look for “Fluoride”
5 compounds tested and not foundBelow the reporting level in every sample. Not found is not the same as zero.
- Arsenic
- Chromium (total)
- Haloacetic acids (HAA5)
- Lead
- Total trihalomethanes (TTHM)
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. Uranium, nitrate, arsenic, haloacetic acids (HAA5) and total trihalomethanes (TTHM) results here are North Carolina’s yearly averages as CDC publishes them, from 2020 on, with EPA’s national file for 2012 to 2019. Fluoride and chromium (total) come from EPA’s file alone, which ends in 2019. Meadowview Trailer Court’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 North Carolina cover 2020 to 2023; EPA’s compliance samples are from July 24, 2013 to April 1, 2019.
