Your move
Test your own tap with a certified lab first-draw sample; Coudersport, PA may offer free or low-cost kits through the utility.

Ask Charles Cole Memorial Hospital whether it covers that cost before hiring anyone - many utilities now do.
These figures describe homes the utility sampled, not your tap. Only your service line record or a test of your own water answers the question for your house.
