Three weeks ago (August 22, 2024), the City of Granbury reported that most of the 60 drinking water samples collected in March 2024 were below the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) action level for lead. Twenty-two showed elevated levels.
The City explained that lead can enter drinking water primarily due to the corrosion or wearing away of materials containing lead in the water distribution system or household plumbing in older homes.
On September 12, 2024, the City received results from tests conducted in early August at the same 60 locations as the March testing. NONE OF THESE SAMPLES EXCEEDED the EPA's lead limit.
The City regularly tests its drinking water and will continue to do so. If you have any questions, please contact the City of Granbury at 817-573-7030.
