What the violations mean

Haloacetic Acids (HAA5)

21 incidents

Haloacetic acid byproducts exceeded the federal limit

Long-term exposure to HAAs may increase cancer risk

Total Trihalomethanes (TTHMs)

20 incidents

Disinfection byproduct levels exceeded the federal limit

Long-term TTHM exposure may increase bladder cancer risk

Groundwater Rule

1 incident

The system did not complete a treatment step or action that the Groundwater Rule requires (a treatment technique violation).

Where the water comes from

Hudson Gaars Mill Water System draws water from 2 wells.

Annual water quality report

Hudson Gaars Mill Water System must give its customers an annual water quality report (Consumer Confidence Report) by July 1, with the levels its tests found in the previous year.

Where the state allows it, systems serving fewer than 10,000 people may publish the report in a local newspaper or news site instead of mailing it, and must provide a copy on request.

Testing your own water

To test the water at your tap, or a private well this record does not cover, use a laboratory certified for drinking water by Louisiana.
