2026 water quality report · 2025 reporting year
Public water system GA1510001. Use these measurements only for this system; they do not describe private wells or every address in Henry County.

33mg/L as CaCO₃
MyTapWater estimates 1.9 gpg for Henry County from USGS data. This is regional context, not measured hardness for this utility or your tap.
USGS: soft ≤60; moderately hard 61–120 mg/L as CaCO₃.
2.36mg/L
Reported residual; range 0.05–3.00.
MRDL in the utility report: 4 mg/L.
0.72mg/L
Reported amount; range 0.15–0.98.
MCL in the utility report: 4 mg/L.
66.4µg/L
Four-quarter result; sample range 16.6–81.4.
MCL in the utility report: 80 µg/L.
38.1µg/L
Four-quarter result; sample range 13.5–47.2.
MCL in the utility report: 60 µg/L.
1.2ratio
Reported treatment ratio; range 1.0–1.5.
The utility explains a ratio of at least 1 is required.
0samples over action level
Tap table: none over 15 µg/L; reported lead amount 1 µg/L.
A system sampling result does not establish lead at your particular tap.
0.25NTU
Highest value of the year.
100% of measured samples were below 0.3 NTU.

In drinking water, ppm ≈ mg/L, ppb ≈ µg/L and ppt ≈ ng/L. Calculated hardness in grains per US gallon (gpg) = mg/L as CaCO₃ ÷ 17.118, rounded to one decimal. ND means below the reporting limit, not zero.
MCL means a regulatory contaminant limit; MRDL is a disinfectant limit. Lead and copper use tap-sampling action levels. TTHM and HAA5 compliance is assessed using running averages at specific locations, not the highest single sample.
PFAS results depend on the compound, sample location, year and reporting limit. A missing result or nondetect is not proof of zero PFAS. EPA PFAS benchmarks and implementation ↗

Source water. HCWA draws surface water from five reservoirs, including Tussahaw and Upper and Lower Towaliga. It operates two drinking-water treatment plants.

More about your local water
Henry’s reported TTHM result was 66.4 µg/L.
Five drinking-water reservoirs feed the authority’s two treatment plants. The county-level hardness estimate is useful context; it was not measured at those plants or at your tap.
A useful local question
No. Chlorine is used for disinfection; hardness measures dissolved calcium and magnesium. If scale is the concern, measure incoming hardness before choosing a softener.
Results retain the utility, sample year, units and comparison used in the source. Hardness is shown separately as a utility measurement, utility guidance or regional estimate. USGS categories describe mineral content, not drinking-water safety.
Use the published report for your own retail water system. These sources can help identify the right report; a county or ZIP alone cannot confirm service.
