These are monitoring results collected under EPA's Fifth Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR 5) at entry points, where treated water enters the distribution system; they are not tap-water samples. They are not compliance determinations: compliance with EPA's 2024 PFAS limits is judged on running annual averages of compliance monitoring, required from 2029, so a single UCMR 5 result at or above a limit is not a violation. “< MRL” means the compound was not quantified at EPA's minimum reporting level; it does not mean zero.
Compared with EPA's 2024 values
| Highest single result | Worst entry-point average* | Limit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| PFOA (ppt) | 14.4 | 12.3 | 4 |
| PFOS (ppt) | 34.7 | 29 | 4 |
| Hazard Index | 0.915 | 0.764 | 1.0† |
“<MRL” = every result for the compound was below its reporting limit. * Mean of all samples at each entry point with non-detects = 0 (EPA compliance convention; the Hazard Index also uses non-detects = 0); a screening comparison, not a formal running annual average. † Rescission proposed May 2026. PFOA/PFOS MCL 4 ppt (2024 NPDWR, in effect). PFHxS, PFNA, HFPO-DA (10 ppt each) and the Hazard Index (1.0) are 2024 NPDWR values; EPA proposed rescinding them on 18 May 2026 (comment period closed 20 Jul 2026).
No Florida PFAS drinking-water standard in effect or proposed as of 2026-10-17: No state PFAS drinking-water MCL. Ch. 2022-203 Laws of Fla. (s. 376.91) concerns contaminated-site cleanup target levels, not drinking water.
Sampling history
Sampled 2023-03-15 to 2023-09-11 · 1 entry point(s) · water types: GW · 2 sampling visits. PFAS in ppt (ng/L).
| Date | Entry point | Event | PFOA | PFOS | HI | Other detections |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023-03-15 | Water TP (GW) | SE1 | 14.4 | 34.7 | 0.915 | 6:2 FTS 39.1, PFBA 12.2, PFHpA 10, PFHxA 18.4, PFPeA 23.9 |

“<4” = not detected at the reporting limit shown; “n/a” = not analyzed in that sample. Highlighted = at or above the 4 ppt MCL. HI computed per sample with non-detects as 0. Other detections lists every other quantified compound (lithium in µg/L).
All results by entry point
60 results. Each column is one sampling visit (date and UCMR 5 sample event). A number is a measured concentration; “< 4” = below the minimum reporting level shown; “–” = not analyzed in that visit. PFAS in ppt (ng/L); lithium in µg/L.

Left-censored Kaplan–Meier statistics (Helsel 2005; Helsel & Lee 2006, NADA for R). Units: ppt; lithium µg/L. Each compound has one reporting limit, so the Kaplan–Meier mean equals the upper mean bound (non-detects at the MRL); the lower bound sets non-detects to 0. “<MRL” = the percentile falls below the reporting limit and cannot be estimated. These describe this system's UCMR 5 samples, not population estimates.
