Region: Normandie Population: 4,838 Water supplier: VEOLIA EAU CGE CONCHES Latest sample: 4 June 2026

PFAS in drinking water

EU legal limit
0.026 µg/L Limit: 0.1 µg/L within limit

The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 0.026 µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 26 % of the limit. (14 January 2025)

This source does not list each PFAS substance separately, so we cannot compare this water with the health limit.

For context: the total of all 20 PFAS (0.026 µg/L) is already above 0.020 µg/L, the limit Germany will enforce from 2028.
