MDWASA - Main (FL) Water Quality

MDWASA - Main is a large public water system in EPA region 4 that provides tap water for the 33031 - 33033, 33109, 33122, 33126 - 33147, 33150 - 33158, 33161, 33162, 33166 - 33170, 33173 - 33187, 33190, 33193, 33194, 33197 zip codes. It has 9 facilities where the water supply was tested for 94 chemical contaminants that impact tap water quality and human health.

The maximum reported level of HAA5 (five regulated haloacetic acids) was 45.46 µg/L. The maximum reported level of Manganese was 3.6 µg/L. There were 2 contamintants found in the MDWASA - Main water supply at levels that were above the minimum reporting level.
