IN American Water Co. - West Lafayette (IN) Water Quality

IN American Water Co. - West Lafayette is a large public water system in EPA region 5 that provides tap water for the 47807 zip codes. It has 12 facilities where the water supply was tested for 75 chemical contaminants that impact tap water quality and human health.

The maximum reported level of HAA5 (five regulated haloacetic acids) was 3.76 µg/L. The maximum reported level of Manganese was 370 µg/L. Some (1 of 4 or 25%) of the latest water samples showed levels of Manganese that were at or above unsafe concentration levels. There were 2 contamintants found in the IN American Water Co. - West Lafayette water supply at levels that were above the minimum reporting level. 1 of the contaminants were above the reference level, which means they may pose a risk to human health.
