FAQ
Additional Information On Wylie, Texas Tap Water

Is There PFAS In Wylie, Texas Water?
Recent sampling conducted at Wylie’s water treatment plants detected the presence of PFAS chemicals. The EPA is in the process of setting new MCL (maximum contaminant levels), which range from 4 to 10 parts per trillion. In numbers, that would be 0.00000000004 for PFOA and PFOS, individually to 0.0000000001 for PFNA, PFHxS, and HFPO-DA (GenX Chemicals).
