Uranium was detected in this system’s water. EPA states its health effects: may increase the risk of cancer; kidney damage.

Gross Alpha emitters were detected in this system’s water. EPA states their health effects: may increase the risk of cancer.

EPA’s health goal for Arsenic, Uranium, and Gross Alpha emitters is zero. There is no amount of them it considers safe to drink.

It serves Silver Springs.

It uses groundwater as its source.

Contaminants Detected

Not detected, or not looked for 67

Regulated contaminants · no result on record

Federally regulated contaminants with no reading on record for this system. A missing reading can mean the sample came back clean, or that nobody was required to take one. The published data does not say which, and smaller systems monitor many of these only once every few years:

1,1,1-Trichloroethane, 1,1,2-Trichloroethane, 1,1-Dichloroethylene, 1,2,4-Trichlorobenzene, 1,2-Dichloroethane, 1,2-Dichloropropane, 2,4,5-TP (Silvex), 2,4-D, Alachlor, Antimony, Asbestos, Atrazine, Benzene, Benzo(a)pyrene, Beryllium, Beta particle & photon emitters, Bromate, Cadmium, Carbofuran, Carbon tetrachloride, Chlordane, Chlorite, Chlorobenzene (monochlorobenzene), Chromium (total), Combined radium (Ra-226 & Ra-228), Cyanide, Dalapon, Di(2-ethylhexyl)adipate, Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate, Dibromochloropropane (DBCP), Dichloromethane (methylene chloride), Dinoseb, Dioxin (2,3,7,8-TCDD), Diquat, Endothall, Endrin, Ethylbenzene, Ethylene dibromide (EDB), Fluoride, Glyphosate, Heptachlor, Heptachlor epoxide, Hexachlorobenzene, Hexachlorocyclopentadiene, Lindane, Mercury (inorganic), Methoxychlor, Nickel, Nitrite, Oxamyl (Vydate), Pentachlorophenol, Picloram, Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), Selenium, Simazine, Styrene, Tetrachloroethylene, Thallium, Toluene, Toxaphene, Trichloroethylene, Vinyl chloride, Xylenes (total), cis-1,2-Dichloroethylene, o-Dichlorobenzene, p-Dichlorobenzene, trans-1,2-Dichloroethylene

How this plant treats the water

FDEP records 2 treatment processes here, under 2 headings.

disinfectionhypochlorination
taste and odourperoxide

From FDEP’s treatment facility report, 2023. It lists what each plant is equipped to do, which is not the same as what any single process removes on a given day, and treatment happens before the water reaches your service line or your own plumbing.

What happened when this system broke the rules

Measurements are only half the record. These are Lakeview Woods/Trails East S/D’s violations of the drinking-water rules as recorded by EPA, 2015, and what followed them.

1health-based violationLimit or treatment failures, not paperwork.
0still openAll were closed out.
7enforcement actions6 informal, 1 formal.
0carried a penaltyNo fine was ever assessed.

The longest single violation ran 210 days before the system was recorded back in compliance.

A system in violation keeps operating, because cutting off a community’s water is not a remedy anyone wants. That is the point worth understanding: the enforcement record and the water are two different things, and only one of them appears in the annual report you are mailed.

The Solution

01

Get your water tested

We measure what is actually coming out of your taps - hardness, iron, pH, TDS, PFAS, and whatever your own plumbing adds - the things a utility report can never show.

02

See your real results

We walk you through exactly what is there and what it affects: your skin, your pipes, your appliances, and the taste. Measured at your tap, not at the plant.

03

Get recommendations

Based on your results, we recommend the treatment that fits your water - a softener, reverse osmosis, or whole-home filtration - and nothing you do not need.

Know when your water changes

We will email you when new readings, violations or health goals land for your system.

Or schedule a water consultation.
