PFAS in Lamarque-Rustaing's tap water: under 17 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 17 ng/L, 34 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 Bégole, on the same distribution network as Lamarque-Rustaing (VALLEE DU LIZON). 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 2 to 5 ng/L upward. None reached that limit, so their total is below 17 ng/L rather than zero.

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Lamarque-Rustaing safe to drink?
Yes. At the check on 21 July 2026, the tap water in Lamarque-Rustaing was within every limit tested. Outside a reference value: Electrical conductivity 129 µS/cm on 21 July 2026 (reference 200–1,100 µS/cm). These are indicator parameters with reference values, not legal limits. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux limites de qualité et non conforme aux références de qualité.”
How high are PFAS levels in Lamarque-Rustaing's drinking water?
At the latest check the total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was below the laboratory's reporting limit of 100 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is under 100 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Lamarque-Rustaing also meet the strictest limits in Europe?
The check cannot say. None of the four compounds was quantified, but the laboratory's detection limits add up to 17 ng/L, above Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L in force since 2026, so a value between the two would go unnoticed.
How hard is the water in Lamarque-Rustaing?
No hardness value is available for Lamarque-Rustaing in this source.
Where does this data come from?
