What the violations mean
Nitrate
10 incidentsNitrate exceeded the federal limit
High nitrate is especially dangerous for infants under 6 months and can cause blue baby syndrome
Groundwater Rule
3 incidentsThe system did not complete a treatment step or action that the Groundwater Rule requires (a treatment technique violation).
The utility had to notify customers about each of these violations.
Stage 1 Disinfection Byproducts Rule
1 incidentThe system did not meet a treatment requirement of the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule
Byproducts form when disinfectants react with natural material in water. Long-term exposure above federal limits may increase cancer risk
Revised Total Coliform Rule
1 incidentThe system did not meet a requirement of the Revised Total Coliform Rule
Coliform and E. coli rules protect against bacteria in the distribution system
Where the water comes from
Potomac Farms Water Co draws water from 1 well.
Annual water quality report
Potomac Farms Water Co 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.
Systems serving 500 or fewer people may meet the rule by telling customers the report is available on request, so you may need to ask Potomac Farms Water Co for a copy.
Find a posted report with EPA's Consumer Confidence Report search
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 West Virginia.
Certified drinking water labs by state EPA guidance for private wells
