The short answer

1 result is above EPA’s legal limit, and 3 more are above the health goal. The worst: Nitrate, above the legal limit. 41 health-based violations since 2016.

What handles it

What was found

Lead and copper: EPA SDWIS monitoring periods ending 2024 to 2025.

Nitrate, uranium, arsenic, fluoride, haloacetic acids (HAA5), total trihalomethanes (TTHM) and chromium (total): Texas’s own results, samples taken from Feb. 12, 2020 to Sept. 2, 2026, with EPA’s 2012 to 2019 file for earlier years.

Above the legal limit1

Nitrate

Comes from the source

Above the legal limit

19.5ppm

Highest sample; found in 27 of 27

2026 average: 18.8 ppm

From 2020 to 2026, at least 25 samples were above EPA’s legal limit of 10 ppm, the highest 19.5 ppm in 2026. 25 have no follow-up sample on file within 30 days. That was also the latest year on file, and its three samples averaged 18.8 ppm, above the limit. EPA recorded violations for nitrate at this utility in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest sample of 20 ppm, in 2019, and EPA recorded violations in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019.

13.5ppb

Highest yearly average, 2022 to 2025

Averaged by year, the highest was 13.5 ppb, in 2025: below EPA’s legal limit of 30 ppb, but above its health goal of zero. That was also the latest year on file. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest yearly average of 12.8 ppb, in 2019.

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.”

  • NSF/ANSI 53

    Claims: Nitrate/Nitrite (30 ppm challenge), Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=50 ppb Reduction, Lead Reduction

    For: Nitrate, Arsenic, Lead

    Other certifiers’ wording: Arsenic (III) (50 ppb influent level)

  • NSF/ANSI 58

    Claims: Nitrate/Nitrite Reduction, Uranium, Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=50 ppb Reduction, Lead Reduction

    For: Nitrate, Uranium, Arsenic, Lead

    Other certifiers’ wording: Nitrate; Arsenic (Pentavalent)<=300 ppb Reduction; Arsenic (V) (300 ppb influent level)

At the tap, or for the whole house?

Lead and copper usually come from pipes and fixtures inside or near your home. A whole-house system sits where water enters, so it cannot catch what your own plumbing adds after it. For those, the filter that counts is the one at the tap. How whole-house systems compare.

What this report can’t tell you

  • Everything else. Nitrate, uranium, arsenic, fluoride, haloacetic acids (HAA5), total trihalomethanes (TTHM) and chromium (total) results here are Texas’s own from 2020 on, with EPA’s national file for 2012 to 2019. Canyon Dam Mobile Home Park’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; Texas’s results run from Feb. 12, 2020 to Sept. 2, 2026.

Testing your own tap

Canyon Dam Mobile Home Park’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 Texas certifies.

No lab Texas certifies is within 75 miles of the area Canyon Dam Mobile Home Park serves on the state’s list. Some take samples by mail; the state’s page lists them all.
