PFAS in Hodenc-en-Bray's tap water: under 4 ng/L, none of the four main PFAS detected
Last PFAS check: · Source: Hub'eau
PFAS in drinking water
No PFAS detected
The lab sees nothing below 4 ng/L, 8 times our benchmark of 0.5 ng/L. Water above our benchmark would pass this check unnoticed.
0.5 ng/L is our benchmark, not an official limit. Same EFSA method as Sweden, Denmark and the Netherlands, but stricter. It's a yearly average, compared here with the latest check.
Sample taken in Lhéraule, on the same distribution network as Hodenc-en-Bray (MARTINCOURT-CRILLON). The health authority samples one tap per network; a network carries the same treated water everywhere.
More about this result
The US also limits PFOA and PFOS to 4 ng/L each, per substance.
The lab detects each of the four substances from 1 ng/L upward. None reached that limit, so their total is below 4 ng/L rather than zero.

In Hodenc-en-Bray, none of the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) was detected at the latest PFAS check on 20 May 2026. The total is below 4 ng/L, the sum of the detection limits and 8 times our 0.5 ng/L benchmark. Sum of 20 PFAS: <0,029 µg/L, below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). Sampled in Lhéraule, on the same network. 4 checks since 30 July 2025: PFAS-4 up to 1 ng/L, sometimes below the detection limit, averaging at least 0.25 ng/L over 12 months (non-detects as 0).

PFAS over time in Hodenc-en-Bray
4 PFAS checks since 30 July 2025, values as published. Samples from 4 communes on the same network: it's the same water, so each one applies to Hodenc-en-Bray.
| Date | PFAS-4 | Sum of 20 PFAS | Sampled at |
|---|---|---|---|
| < 4 ng/L | < 29 ng/L | Lhéraule | |
| < 4 ng/L | < 29 ng/L | Crillon | |
| < 20 ng/L | < 29 ng/L | Bonnières | |
| 1 ng/L | 1 ng/L | Martincourt |
“<” means not detected, the figure being the detection limit. “–” means not published. Labs have only reported the PFAS-4 sum (SANDRE code 9268) since autumn 2025. How to read a PFAS result

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Hodenc-en-Bray safe to drink?
Yes. At the check on 20 May 2026, the tap water in Hodenc-en-Bray was within every limit tested. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux exigences de qualité en vigueur pour l'ensemble des paramètres mesurés.”
How high are PFAS levels in Hodenc-en-Bray's drinking water?
At the latest check the total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was below the laboratory's reporting limit of 29 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is under 29 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Hodenc-en-Bray also meet the strictest limits in Europe?
As far as this check can tell, yes. None of the four compounds was quantified, so their total is below 4 ng/L, the sum of the laboratory's detection limits, and under Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L in force since 2026.
Are PFAS levels rising in Hodenc-en-Bray's tap water?
Too few quantified checks to say (1 since 30 July 2025). pfasnearme adds each new publication weekly; a trend needs at least three quantified values.
How hard is the water in Hodenc-en-Bray?
No hardness value is available for Hodenc-en-Bray in this source.
