Austin Water's tests confirmed by the EPA found no detectable amounts of the six PFAS compounds proposed for regulation in treated tap water.
PFBA, a PFAS compound found in Austin's water, was within acceptable limits and not covered by an EPA health advisory level.
Regional environmental protections in place for decades have helped maintain Austin's water quality at the source, as confirmed by City Manager Jesús Garza.
Environmental programs like the LCRA's Clean Rivers Program contribute to keeping Austin's water clean and reduce the impact of contaminants like PFAS in the Highland Lakes.
