Frequently Asked Questions About Monteagle Tap Water
Monteagle's water has 1 contaminant above EPA MCLGs. We recommend using a certified water filter for additional protection, especially for vulnerable populations like children, pregnant women, and those with compromised immune systems. EPA records 4 health-based violations for MONTEAGLE PUBLIC UTILITY BOARD that began after its latest compliance result on file (Jun 2022): Maximum Contaminant Level Violation, Average (Total Haloacetic Acids (HAA5)), 4 violations, the first beginning on July 1, 2023 and the latest on April 1, 2024. Every such result predates them; its later EPA UCMR 5 results (Nov 2024) screen for unregulated contaminants and cannot show the water met this standard, so this page does not call the water safe.
