The short answer
Nothing in EPA’s and Pennsylvania’s records for this utility is above a health goal. That covers PFAS, plus nitrate, arsenic and other regulated chemicals, not everything. 2 health-based violations since 2016.
What was found
PFAS: Pennsylvania’s own results under its PFAS rule, entry point samples taken from March 26, 2024 to May 7, 2025.
Arsenic, chromium (total), fluoride, haloacetic acids (HAA5), nitrate, total trihalomethanes (TTHM) and uranium: Pennsylvania’s own results, samples taken from July 1, 2020 to Aug. 5, 2026, with EPA’s 2012 to 2019 file for earlier years.
PFAS: PFBS was found, of the six PFAS in EPA’s 2024 drinking water rule; its result is below.
EPA’s 2024 PFAS rule, compound by compound
| PFAS | EPA’s limit | Result |
|---|---|---|
| PFOA | 4.0 ppt | Not foundNot found in any of 5 samples |
| PFOS | 4.0 ppt | Not foundNot found in any of 5 samples |
| PFHxS | 10 ppt | Not foundNot found in any of 3 samples |
| PFNA | 10 ppt | Not foundNot found in any of 3 samples |
| HFPO-DA (GenX) | 10 ppt | Not foundNot found in any of 3 samples |
| PFBS | Index only | Below EPA’s limits2.3 ppt highest, found in 2 of 3 samples. Details |
| Results from Pennsylvania’s own PFAS monitoring, samples where water enters the pipes; each compound’s card has its four-quarter averages, the way limits are judged. The limits are EPA’s 2024 rule, with compliance due from 2029; EPA has since proposed changes to some of them, explained on each compound’s page. Pennsylvania’s own limits for PFOA and PFOS are in force now. PFBS has no limit of its own and counts only toward EPA’s Hazard Index, which TapBuff works out only from UCMR 5’s averages, so it isn’t given here. | ||

PFBS
Comes from the source
2.3ppt
Highest sample, May 7, 2025; found in 2 of 3
2025 average: 2.1 ppt
The highest sample was 2.3 ppt, below EPA’s hazard index benchmark of 2,000 ppt. PFBS has no legal limit or health goal of its own. In 2025, the latest year on file, its two samples averaged 2.1 ppt.

What this report can’t tell you
Everything else. Arsenic, chromium (total), fluoride, haloacetic acids (HAA5), nitrate, total trihalomethanes (TTHM) and uranium results here are Pennsylvania’s own from 2020 on, with EPA’s national file for 2012 to 2019. Heritage Village MHP’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.
