Public health experts agree no amount of lead in drinking water is safe. Even low levels can affect children's brain development.
Most recent lead and copper test · See details below
-
This utility's lead service line inventory is not yet complete. Federal rules required every system to publish one by October 16, 2024.

-
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
Past 5 years: 8 health-based violations on file, all marked Resolved or Archived. See compliance history below.
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
Service line inventory still in progress
GREENE COUNTY WATER & SEWER reports 0 confirmed lead service lines, 1,838 non-lead, 1,551 unknown (total 3,389) in its Virginia Department of Health LCRR submission. 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
- 0 galvanized requiring replacement (LCRI treats these as lead)
- 1,551 unknown (45.8% of total)
- 1,838 confirmed non-lead (54.2%)
- 3,389 total service lines in the system
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).
| Contaminant | Most recent | Date | Risk |
|---|---|---|---|
| PB90 | 0.00038 mg/L | December 31, 2024 | Detected (no safe level) |
Data from EPA SDWIS (Lead and Copper Rule sample table) , last refreshed May 24, 2026.
PFAS and emerging contaminants
This system was tested 90 times under EPA's latest PFAS monitoring program; 0 of the 30 chemicals tested were detected.
What is this testing program?
EPA's fifth Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule cycle (UCMR 5, 2023 to 2025) required every public water system serving over 3,300 people to test for 29 per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) plus lithium; 30 chemicals in total. Most recent detection per chemical shown below.
No detections
All UCMR 5 samples for this system were below the EPA-defined minimum reporting level (MRL) for every tested contaminant. Substances that were tested but not detected are listed below.
Tested but not detected (30 contaminants)
EPA tested for these substances and every sample was below the minimum reporting level. Absence of detection does not mean true zero; it means below the laboratory's quantitation threshold.
Data from EPA UCMR 5 (Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule) , last refreshed May 24, 2026.
Fluoride
Per CDC My Water's Fluoride
GREENE COUNTY WATER & SEWER 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.

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.
8 resolved health-based violations in the last 5 years
All 8 health-based violations in the last 5 years are marked Resolved or Archived. Past violations do not represent current water quality.

Data from EPA SDWIS (violation records) , last refreshed May 24, 2026.
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 GREENE COUNTY WATER & SEWER's CCR:
- Search the web for "GREENE COUNTY WATER & SEWER 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.
