About Us
We are pleased to present our Annual Municipal Water Quality Report covering the period from January 1, 2017, to December 31, 2017. This document summarizes the quality of water we provide to our customers, based on analysis from the most recent EPA-mandated testing protocols.
Water Sources and Potential Contaminants
Municipal water sources include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. As water travels across land or through soil, it dissolves naturally-occurring minerals and, in some cases, radioactive materials. It can also pick up substances from animal or human activities. Potential contaminants in source water before treatment may include:
- Microbial contaminants (viruses, bacteria) from sewage facilities, septic systems, agricultural operations, and wildlife
- Inorganic contaminants (salts, metals) from natural sources or urban runoff, industrial discharges, oil/gas production, and farming
- Pesticides and herbicides from agriculture, urban runoff, and residential use
- Organic chemical contaminants from industrial processes, petroleum production, gas stations, and septic systems
- Radioactive contaminants from natural deposits or oil/gas production activities
Our Water Source
Agua SUD obtains surface water from the Rio Grande River, La Joya Lake, 492 Reservoir, and Abram Reservoir. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has conducted source water assessments indicating some vulnerability to certain contaminants. For more information about these assessments, contact Aaron Castillo at (956) 585-2459 or visit the Source Water Assessment Viewer at http://www.tceq.texas.gov/gis/swaview.
Health Information
Individuals with compromised immune systems (cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, organ transplant recipients, HIV/AIDS patients, elderly, and infants) may be particularly vulnerable to certain waterborne infections. These individuals should consult their healthcare providers about their drinking water. Guidelines for reducing Cryptosporidium infection risk are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (800-426-4791).
Lead in Drinking Water
Elevated lead levels can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead primarily enters drinking water from plumbing materials. While we provide high-quality water, we cannot control the materials in your home's plumbing. To minimize potential lead exposure, flush your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or cooking, particularly after water has been sitting for several hours. For concerns about lead, consider having your water tested. Information about lead in drinking water is available from the EPA Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.
About Municipal Water Quality
When water meets federal standards, there may be no health-based advantages to purchasing bottled water or point-of-use devices. All water, including bottled water, contains at least small amounts of some contaminants, which doesn't necessarily indicate a health risk. For more information about contaminants and potential health effects, call the EPA's Safe Drinking Water Hotline (1-800-426-4791).
Secondary Constituents
Many elements found in drinking water (calcium, sodium, iron) may affect taste, color, and odor. These secondary constituents are regulated by Texas, not the EPA, as they are aesthetic issues rather than health concerns.
