Data: U.S. EPA · How we read the data · How we check it

Buys water from City of Clyde, City of Abilene. Treated water bought from another system can carry that system's contaminants.

Summary

PFAS above the 2024 federal limits. Systems have until 2029 to meet the PFAS limits.

Is it an emergency? No: PFAS limits are about years of exposure, not a glass of water, and nothing in EPA's data calls for you to stop drinking the water today. If your utility ever issues a boil-water or do-not-drink notice, follow it.

PFAS
Above limitPFOS above the federal limit in EPA's 2023–2025 testing (PFOS 6.33 ppt vs a limit of 4 ppt, where ppt = parts per trillion).
Lead
Below action level0 ppb (parts per billion) at the 90th percentile: 9 in 10 homes sampled were at or below it. Action level 15 ppb, falling to 10 ppb in Nov 2027. Monitoring period ending Dec 2025. Your home's pipes can make yours higher.
Violations
Resolved9 health-based violations since 2016, most recently Jan 2025.
What you can do
  • Pregnant, or mixing baby formula with tap water? Babies drink more water for their size, so PFAS exposure matters more for them. Consider bottled water or a filter certified for PFAS for formula, and ask your doctor. Health effects.
  • To lower your PFAS exposure now, a home filter certified for PFAS reduction works (reverse osmosis, or activated carbon certified to NSF/ANSI 53 or 58). Filters for these results.
  • Built before 1986, or not sure what your service line is made of? Check your service line and test your tap. Utility data can't show your pipes.
  • Tested your own tap? Compare your result with these numbers. Moving? Compare this system with another.
  • Read Eula Water Supply Corporation's annual water quality report (Consumer Confidence Report). It lists every regulated contaminant tested and is usually on the utility's website or mailed with your bill, and you can also request it at (325) 529-3555. EPA: how to find it.

PFAS (“forever chemicals”)

EPA UCMR 5: 2 entry points tested Mar 2023 to Apr 2024. "Average" is the highest entry-point average (non-detects counted as zero), the way EPA compares UCMR 5 results to the limits. ppt = parts per trillion. These results do not determine compliance.

For context: the PFOS average is higher than at 98% of the Texas systems EPA tested.

29 PFAS tested, 8 detected at least once. "Not detected" means below EPA's reporting limit (about 2 to 20 ppt depending on the chemical), not proven zero. PFAS not listed were not detected. The limits for PFHxS, PFNA, GenX and the Hazard Index were proposed for rescission in May 2026. That proposal is not final. Systems have until 2029 to meet the limits.

Lithium

Detected in 2 of 8 samples. Highest result 11.9 ppb. EPA's non-enforceable screening level is 10 ppb. Below screening level The screening level is how EPA decides what to study further, not a health limit. There is no federal limit for lithium and no filter is certified to remove it. About lithium.

Lead and copper

Latest 90th percentile: 0 ppb lead (Jan 2023 – Dec 2025). Below action level

Lead comes from pipes and fixtures, not the source water, so it varies home to home. The 90th percentile means 9 in 10 sampled homes were at or below it. More on lead.

4 unresolved monitoring or reporting violations: Public Notice, Lead and Copper Rule.

Health-based violations mean a contaminant exceeded a limit or a required treatment step was missed. Monitoring and reporting violations mean required tests or reports were late or missing, so the water's quality during that time is unknown. The total includes every violation in EPA's records, most of them paperwork.
