@element_water_systems: Winter Haven water report | ZIP 33880 Utility: Winter Haven Water Department, PWS FL6531992. PWS is the public-water-system ID. Match your water bill; a ZIP alone does not identify your supplier. Private wells need separate testing. EWG lists 19 detected entries; 9 exceed its health guidelines. The graphic names all nine. Below: reported level / EWG guideline, in the same units. ALL NINE ARE ABOVE EWG GUIDELINES: • Arsenic: 0.189 / 0.004 ppb • Chlorate: 700.6 / 210 ppb • Haloacetic acids (HAA5): 26.6 / 0.1 ppb • Haloacetic acids (HAA9): 47.7 / 0.06 ppb • PFHxS: 0.667 / 0.001 ppt • PFOS: 1.20 / 0.3 ppt • PFOA: 0.644 / 0.09 ppt • Combined radium-226/-228: 0.64 / 0.05 pCi/L • Total trihalomethanes (TTHMs): 57.4 / 0.15 ppb Some entries are overlapping groups, not nine separate individual chemicals. WHAT THIS MEANS TTHMs and haloacetic acids are groups of disinfection byproducts: substances that can form when disinfectants react with material in source water. ppb = parts per billion; ppt = parts per trillion; pCi/L measures radioactivity. Example: 57.4 ppb TTHMs is above EWG's 0.15 ppb guideline, but below the 80 ppb legal MCL. The city's report also lists MCLs of 10 ppb for arsenic, 60 ppb for HAA5 and 5 pCi/L for combined radium. EWG guidelines are comparison benchmarks, not enforceable limits. This comparison alone does not establish a legal violation or today's tap level. EWG page: 2014–2024; comparison note: chemicals 2021–2023, radiological 2018–2023. Checked Nov 5, 2026. Historical utility data, not a home tap test. The city's 2025 report lists TTHMs 43.84 ppb, MCL violation “No.” Different dates/statistics are not a direct trend or blanket compliance finding.
