The short answer
1 result is above the health goal. The worst: Uranium, above the health goal. 20 health-based violations since 2016.
What handles itWhat was found
Uranium, total trihalomethanes (TTHM), haloacetic acids (HAA5), nitrate, fluoride, chromium (total) and arsenic: Texas’s own results, samples taken from March 10, 2020 to Feb. 23, 2026, with EPA’s 2012 to 2019 file for earlier years.
Above the health goal1
Uranium
Comes from the source
3.1ppb
Highest yearly average, 2020 to 2026
2026, one sample: 2.7 ppb
Averaged by year, the highest was 3.1 ppb, in 2023: below EPA’s legal limit of 30 ppb, but above its health goal of zero. Its highest single sample was 3.9 ppb. In 2026, the latest year on file, its one sample was 2.7 ppb. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest yearly average of 4.1 ppb, in 2012.

2025: not found
Averaged by year, the highest was 3.1 ppb, in 2022, below EPA’s legal limit of 100 ppb. In 2025, the latest year on file, it wasn’t found in its one sample. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest yearly average of 2.3 ppb, in 2019.
What handles it

2 compounds tested and not foundBelow the reporting level in every sample. Not found is not the same as zero.
- Arsenic
- 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. Uranium, total trihalomethanes (TTHM), haloacetic acids (HAA5), nitrate, fluoride, chromium (total) and arsenic results here are Texas’s own from 2020 on, with EPA’s national file for 2012 to 2019. Crazy Horse Ranch Water’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 March 10, 2020 to Feb. 23, 2026.
