PUBLIC NOTICE
RE: TTHM 4th Quarter Violation 2025
Patterson Water Customers:
The Patterson Water System is currently in violation of the maximum contaminant level (MCL) for total trihalomethanes as set forth by the State [Part XII of the Louisiana State Sanitary Code (LAC 51:XII)] and the Federal Primary Drinking Water Regulations (40 CFR Part 141).
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the. Louisiana De- partment of Health (LDH) set drinking water standards and requires the disinfection of drinking water. Where disinfection is used in the treatment of drinking water, disinfectants combine with naturally occurring organic and inorganic matter present in water to form chemicals called disinfection byproducts (DBPs). EPA and LDH set standards for controlling the levels of disinfectants and DBPs in drinking water, including trihalomethanes (THMs) and haloacetic acids (HAAs). Some people who drink water containing THMs in excess of the MCL over many years may experience problems with their liver, kidneys, or central nervous system, and may have an increased risk of getting cancer.
In December I998, EPA set enforceable drinking water standards for TTHMs at 80 parts per billion (ppb) and for HAA5 at 60 parts per billion (ppb) to reduce the risk of cancer or other ad- verse health ef- fects. Compliance with the TTHMs and HAA5 standard for public water systems serving less than 10,000 individuals initially became effective and en- forceable on January 1, 2004. Compliance with the TTHMs standard is determined by calculating a locational running annual average (LRAA) of quarterly TTHMs sample results. Compliance calculations performed for the fourth quarter of 2025 show that the system’s current TTHMs LRAAs are 91 ppb at DBP01. - 729 Kem St and 89 ppb at DBP03 - 508 Taft St; Thus, the system is currently in violation of the TTHMs standard.
Please share this information with all the other people who drink this water, especially those who may not have received this notice directly (for example, people in apartments, nursing homes, schools, and businesses). You can do this by posting this notice in a public place or distributing copies by hand or mail.
THIS IS NOT AN EMERGENCY. If it had been, you would have been notified im- mediately. EPA and LDH do not consider this violation to have any serious adverse health effects on human health as a result of short-term exposure; however, continued long-term ex- posure to TTHMs and HAA5 levels above the standard (e.g., 20 years of exposure) has the potential to have serious ad- verse effects on human health.
We apologize for any misunderstanding you may have with the water. Rest assured the water is still safe to drink. If this had been an emergency you would have been notified within 24 hours. We are working on solutions to correct the problems. Thank you for your patience as we move forward on this matter.
