ppm ≈ mg/L; ppb ≈ µg/L; ppt ≈ ng/L in drinking water. Hardness in gpg = mg/L as CaCO₃ ÷ 17.1. ND means not detected at the method’s reporting limit—not zero.
MCL is a maximum contaminant level. MRDL is a disinfectant limit. Lead/copper action levels use system sampling percentiles and are not a safe-tap threshold. TTHM/HAA5 compliance uses locational annual averages.
PFOA/PFOS comparisons use EPA’s 4 ppt values. Historical detections are not a present compliance finding; EPA assesses compliance using running annual averages. Rule implementation is being reviewed. EPA PFAS benchmarks and implementation ↗

More about your local water
Use Killeen’s retail distribution results when Killeen is your water supplier.
Killeen purchases treated water but also tests its own distribution system and customer taps. Its 2025 report includes location-specific annual averages for disinfection byproducts and 2023–2025 lead and copper results. Temple, Belton and other Bell County systems require their own reports.
A useful local question
No. A numeric hardness value was not verified in the Killeen report reviewed here. Confirm the supplier on your bill and test incoming water before setting a softener.
We keep each utility’s results separate, show the reported sample year, and distinguish averages, maxima and tap-sampling percentiles. Hardness classifications use USGS ranges. Missing data stays unknown.
