Frequently Asked Questions About Bellville Tap Water
Bellville'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 a health-based violation for CITY OF BELLVILLE that began after its latest compliance result on file (Jun 2022): Treatment Technique, Level 1 Assessment (RTCR) (Revised Total Coliform Rule), which began on August 19, 2023. Every such result predates it; its later EPA UCMR 5 results (Jan 2026) screen for unregulated contaminants and cannot show the water met this standard, so this page does not call the water safe.
