What to do in your house

Use a filter certified to NSF/ANSI 53 for lead on the tap you drink and cook from, now, before you test. Then test your own tap. If your own line is lead, replacing the private side runs about $1,200-$12,300 (EPA average about $4,700). Ask Mountaintop Mobilehome Park whether it covers that cost before hiring anyone - many utilities now do. Its latest copper 90th percentile is 2194 ppb (copper action level 1,300 ppb).

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. Why sampled homes are the worst-case ones is in the guide to reading the number. The action level is dropping - the 10 ppb rule from 2027.
