Not in this recordDisinfection by-products weren't monitored in this dataset
No result is not a pass. Your utility's annual water quality report may list them, and a certified lab test covers your own tap.
A federal limit (an MCL or action level) is an enforceable legal cap; a health goal is often stricter. Meeting the limit is a compliance fact, not a health clearance, and PurityMap publishes no overall compliance verdict.
What you can do
Test first, then treat what was found
01 · TestTest your own tap
Plumbing inside a home can add lead that the system record can't show. A tap test tells you what reaches your glass.
CITY OF ANDERSON (PWS ID CA4510001) is a public water system serving 11,323 people in Anderson, California.
Where does CITY OF ANDERSON get its water?
CITY OF ANDERSON is on record as drawing from groundwater. The source shapes which contaminants matter most for this system.
What does CITY OF ANDERSON's monitoring record show?
PurityMap's record for CITY OF ANDERSON holds 6 findings: 1 detected within the reference and 5 not detected, from 6 evidence records. Every finding links to its source; a substance that was never monitored is shown as pending, not as a pass.
Is CITY OF ANDERSON's water safe to drink?
PurityMap does not issue a safety verdict. It publishes CITY OF ANDERSON's measured results against each contaminant's benchmark so you can read them in context. Safety depends on the specific finding, your plumbing, and how the water reaches your tap.
How current is this CITY OF ANDERSON data?
The latest published record for CITY OF ANDERSON is dated 2026-10-15. Utilities report on regulatory cycles, so results reflect the monitoring period rather than a live reading.
Does this assessment represent my home's tap water?
No. It is assessed at the water-system level from CITY OF ANDERSON's own monitoring. It does not cover the service line to your building or the plumbing inside it, which can add lead and other metals after the water leaves the system. A tap test is the way to know what reaches your glass.
What contaminants were detected in CITY OF ANDERSON?
Lead (90th percentile) was detected in this record. Each finding shows its measured value, its reference and its source on this page.
What should I do if I'm concerned about lead in CITY OF ANDERSON's water?
Start with what the record shows: the lead findings above list each measured value against its reference. This record cannot show your home's plumbing, so a tap test tells you what reaches your glass. If you decide to treat your water, look for a filter whose certification covers the specific contaminant in your record; the section "Certified for a concern found here" lists only products with a current certification record for these concerns.
