Galvanized lines treated as lead
256 galvanized requiring replacement · 5 unknown
EPA's Lead and Copper Rule Improvements treat galvanized service lines as lead, because galvanized iron pipe installed downstream of an old lead component absorbs and continues to release lead for years after the lead source is removed.

CDC's My Water's Fluoride listing reports this system adjusts fluoride to the recommended level, or buys water from a system that does.
Per CDC My Water's Fluoride · See details below
No recent lead, copper, or PFAS test data on file from this system. Most other contaminants are tracked through violation reports rather than per-page test tables.
Risk classification follows EPA's published values for safe drinking water, with caution and concern bands reviewed by a clinician. Past resolved violations do not influence this card. See methodology.
Lead service line inventory
Lead or galvanized-requiring-replacement service lines confirmed in this system
BROXTON reports 0 confirmed lead service lines, 256 galvanized requiring replacement, 322 non-lead, 5 unknown (total 583) in the EPA SDWIS service line inventory (2026Q1). EPA's Lead and Copper Rule Revisions treat unknown and galvanized-requiring-replacement lines as lead for notification and replacement scheduling until verified.
- 0 confirmed lead service lines
- 256 galvanized requiring replacement (LCRI treats these as lead)
- 5 unknown (0.9% of total)
- 322 confirmed non-lead (55.2%)
- 583 total service lines in the system
Why this is a health concern. A galvanized iron service line that was ever installed downstream of a historic lead component (a lead service line, a lead gooseneck connector, or lead solder) absorbed lead into its corrosion layer over decades. The pipe continues to release that accumulated lead into water for years after the upstream lead source is removed. That is why EPA's LCRI treats GRR lines as lead and requires their replacement on the same 10-year schedule as confirmed lead lines. Read our plain-English lead guide.
What to do if your service line might be lead
- Ask your utility to check the service-line classification for your specific address. Many utilities provide a public address-lookup tool linked from the inventory page.
- Get on the replacement queue. Under the LCRI, utilities must replace all lead and galvanized-requiring- replacement lines within 10 years (clock generally starts November 2027). Some prioritize requests.
- Until the line is replaced: flush the tap 30 seconds after long stagnation, use cold water for drinking and cooking, and consider an NSF/ANSI 53 lead-rated tap filter.
- Talk to your clinician about a blood lead test for anyone in the home, especially a pregnant person or a child under 6. Lead in drinking water guide.

Lead and copper test results
The most recent measurement per contaminant from EPA's Lead and Copper Rule sampling.
Why only lead and copper, and not arsenic, nitrate, or others?
EPA's bulk SDWIS download is the only nationwide per-system sample data they publish, and it only includes the Lead and Copper Rule table. Values for other regulated contaminants (TTHMs, nitrate, arsenic, etc.) appear on this page only when they trigger a violation. For the full per-system contaminant suite, see the utility's annual Consumer Confidence Report (link further down the page).
No recent Lead and Copper sample data
EPA's national SDWIS bulk dataset does not include Lead and Copper Rule sampling rows for this system in the most recent release. That can mean the system is small enough to be on a reduced sampling schedule, or that recent samples have not yet been submitted to EPA. Check the system's annual Consumer Confidence Report (see below) for the most recent local measurements.

Fluoride
Per CDC My Water's Fluoride
BROXTON adds fluoride to its drinking water.
CDC classifies a system as fluoridated when it adjusts fluoride to the recommended level, or when it buys water from a system that does. The U.S. Public Health Service recommends 0.7 mg/L for community water fluoridation.

Compliance history
EPA-recorded violations against this system over the last 5 years.
How to read this section
Health-based violations are when a measured limit was exceeded; the measured concentration is shown alongside the EPA federal limit where SDWIS published it. Monitoring and reporting items are paperwork issues (missed sample dates, late filings) that do not themselves indicate unsafe water.
No health-based violations
No health-based violations on file in the last 5 years. EPA recorded 11 monitoring or reporting items (paperwork) during the same period.

Where to see every contaminant this utility tested for
EPA's bulk SDWIS dataset gives MyTapWater.us per-system measured values for lead and copper, plus violation records for everything else. To see every regulated contaminant this utility tested for in the past year (TTHMs, HAA5, nitrate, arsenic, fluoride, chromium, etc.) with measured values, read the utility's Consumer Confidence Report (CCR).
Every community water system is required by EPA to publish a CCR annually, by July 1, listing every contaminant they sampled, the measured value, the federal limit, and any health-based exceedances. Most utilities post the report online; some mail it with your bill.
How to find BROXTON's CCR:
- Search the web for "BROXTON consumer confidence report" . The PDF is usually on the utility's own website.
- Or call the utility directly. Their phone number is in the contact section below.
