What is in the water at 70433

5 public water systems serve this ZIP code in the federal records. Everything below comes from EPA monitoring data, and everything missing is named.

COVINGTON WATER SUPPLY

PWSID LA1103011 · LA · serves 16,185 people · service area inferred by a model, not supplied by the state

PFAS and lithium

1 compound detected at or above the reporting limit under EPA’s UCMR 5 monitoring, across 2 samples.

CompoundHighest detectedSamplesMost recent
lithium11 µg/L28/20/2025

A detection is a measurement, not a violation and not a health finding. EPA states that UCMR 5 results do not indicate compliance or non-compliance with any limit.

Health-based violations

1 open health-based violation(s) recorded in SDWIS and not yet returned to compliance.

  • TT · contaminant code 0700 · began 2024-05-30

Hardness

Median hardness 12 mg/L as CaCO₃, measured at 3 stations serving this system across 53 results, 2015-01-13 to 2022-09-13. Measured in the water source and distribution area, not at a tap, and not in your home.

ST. TAMMANY WATER DISTRICT #2

PWSID LA1103033 · LA · serves 5,200 people · service area inferred by a model, not supplied by the state

PFAS and lithium

Sampled, nothing detected. Tested for 30 compounds under UCMR 5 with none found at or above its reporting limit. A reporting limit is the lowest concentration the method can measure, so this means “below that” rather than “zero”.

Health-based violations

No open health-based violation on record. This covers MCL, treatment technique and MRDL violations in SDWIS that have not been returned to compliance. It excludes monitoring and reporting violations, which are the large majority nationally, so this is not “no violations”, and SDWIS completeness varies by state.

Hardness

No hardness measurement. Hardness is measured at environmental monitoring stations, and none fell inside this system’s service area. That is a gap in where monitoring happens, not a finding about the water.

ST TAM PARISH - BRIARWOOD TERRACE

PWSID LA1103079 · LA · serves 17,536 people · service area inferred by a model, not supplied by the state

What this report cannot tell you

Every figure describes water at a sampling point: a treatment plant, an entry point to the distribution system, or a monitoring station. None of it describes water arriving at your tap. Plumbing between the two can add lead and copper, and if your home was built before 1986 a test kit tells you something no federal dataset can.
