The short answer
Nothing in EPA’s and Washington’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
Nitrate, total trihalomethanes (TTHM), arsenic, chromium (total), fluoride and haloacetic acids (HAA5): Washington’s own results, samples taken from July 1, 2020 to July 15, 2025, with EPA’s 2012 to 2019 file for earlier years.
Below EPA’s limits2
Nitrate
Comes from the source
4.5ppm
Highest sample; found in 11 of 11
2023 average: 4.5 ppm
The highest sample, in 2023, was 4.5 ppm, below EPA’s legal limit of 10 ppm. That was also the latest year on file, and its two samples averaged 4.5 ppm. Earlier, from 2012 to 2019, EPA’s file shows a highest sample of 5.1 ppm, in 2012.
What handles it
- NSF/ANSI 58 look for “Nitrate/Nitrite Reduction”
- NSF/ANSI 53 look for “Nitrate/Nitrite (30 ppm challenge)”
Total trihalomethanes (TTHM)
Forms or is added in treatment
0.51ppb
Highest yearly average, 2022 to 2025

Hardness
Moderately hard, typically 72 mg/L (4.2 grains per gallon), across 3 sampling points, in 2021.
Hardness is calcium and magnesium. EPA sets no limit for it: it shows up as scale on fixtures and in water heaters, and as soap that won’t lather. USGS calls water above 60 mg/L moderately hard, above 120 hard and above 180 very hard.
Violations since 2016
No health-based violations on file with EPA since 2016. There is 1 monitoring or reporting violation: a sample missed, late or not reported.
What this report can’t tell you
Everything else. Nitrate, total trihalomethanes (TTHM), arsenic, chromium (total), fluoride and haloacetic acids (HAA5) results here are Washington’s own from 2020 on, with EPA’s national file for 2012 to 2019. Loveland Mobile Estates’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.
